摘要
Background Laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy allows effective palliation and rapid recovery for the patient with limited survival due to advanced pancreatic cancer presenting with gastric outlet obstruction. Transumbilical single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) offers excellent cosmetic results and may be associated with decreased postoperative pain, reduced need for analgesia, and thus accelerated recovery. The authors report the first transumbilical single-incision laparoscopic intracorporeal anastomosis for gastrojejunostomy.
