Abstract :Aim: Adnexal mass is one of the most common surgical indications in gynecology clinics, and laparoscopy is generally accepted as a gold standard in the management of adnexal mass. Materials and Method: Single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is an evolving endoscopic approach in the era of minimal access surgery. Recently, it has been reported that adnexal mass may also be managed by SILS. In this report, we present 3 symptomatic patients with a huge adnexal mass operated by a single port laparoscopic approach. Results: The mean duration of the operations 95 minutes (range 75-135 minutes). None of the patients converted to laparotomy. All patients discharged on postoperative day 1. None of the patients required readmission to the hospital. Postoperatively all patients were satisfied with their incision and cosmetic results. Conclusion: Single port laparoscopic management can be successfully completed via SILS PortTM in patients with large adnexal masses with better cosmetic outcomes.
