Figure Lengend Snippet: A — Photograph showing the location of the incision for the single incision laparoscopic surgery port device, indicated with a red mark [1]. The para-inguinal portals are indicated by green [2] and blue [3] marks. B and C — The surgical model demonstrates a Carmalt forceps grasping the ventral portion of the single incision laparoscopic surgery port [1] for insertion into the abdomen through the incision made at the umbilicus. Views are shown from both a caudal-to-cranial perspective (B) and a lateral perspective (C).

Article Snippet: The peritoneum was penetrated digitally and a lubricated SILS Port device (3 laparoscopic portals; Covidien) was introduced with the aid of Carmalt forceps ( Figure 1 ).

Figure Lengend Snippet: A — Photograph showing a surgical model with a rigid laparoscope (diameter 10 mm, 30°, length 37 cm) inserted through 1 of the 3 channels of the SILS port device [1], along with a vessel-sealing device inserted through the right [2] para-inguinal portal and traumatic grasping forceps inserted through the left [3] para-inguinal portal. B and C — Intraoperative images showing the vessel-sealing device through the right [2] para-inguinal portal transecting the spermatic cord (white arrow) while the traumatic grasping forceps through the left [3] para-inguinal portal hold the right testicle (white asterisk).

B — An intraoperative image showing the traumatic grasping forceps through the left [3] para-inguinal portal transferring the testicle (white asterisk) to the traumatic grasping forceps [1′] inserted through 1 of the 3 channels of the SILS port device. C — An intraoperative image showing the traumatic grasping forceps [1′] inserted through 1 of the 3 channels of the SILS port device as it pulls the testicle (white asterisk).

Figure Lengend Snippet: The photograph shows a surgical model set up for a unilateral cryptorchid procedure, with a rigid laparoscope (diameter 10 mm, 30°, length 37 cm) [1′] and traumatic grasping forceps [1″] inserted through 1 of the 3 channels of the single incision laparoscopic surgery port device [1]. In addition, Babcock forceps are inserted through the right [2] para-inguinal portal.
