Abstract
In this paper we describe the basic techniques for a single-port laparoscopic surgery. The surgical techniques are classified into the multiple trocar method and the multi-channel port method because of access port differences. They are also classified as well according to technique, e.g., the parallel technique, cross technique, and cross hand technique. Forceps manipulation is different in each technique, therefore, it is important for surgeons to understand the characteristics of these methods. An appropriate method should be chosen on the specific situation to render surgical maneuver to be easily performed.
