Efficacy and safety of single-incision laparoscopic ileocecal resection using a dome port: A novel device: A case report.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction and importance: This is the first case report of single-incision laparoscopic surgery using the Dome Port for colon cancer. Dome Port is designed to enhance the operability and safety of single-incision surgery. The key advantages are as follows. First, this device is made of transparent silicone, allowing the surgeon to directly visualize the insertion of surgical instruments. Second, the flexible silicone material minimizes interference between surgical instruments and the port. Case presentation: A 70-year-old female visited our hospital with occult blood test positive. She underwent a myoma resection approximately 20 years ago. A lower midline abdominal incision was present. Preoperative examination revealed the presence of advanced tumor in the cecum colon. Ileocecal resection was performed as the laparoscopic single-port technique using Dome Port. The procedure was performed safely, with an operation time of 138 min. The patient experienced minimal postoperative pain and resumed oral intake on postoperative day 2. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 6 without major complications. Clinical discussion: The Dome Port's transparent silicone construction allowed direct visualization of instrument insertion, enhancing procedural safety, while its flexible material minimized instrument interference and improved ergonomic manipulation. Compared to conventional single-incision ports, these features may reduce operative difficulty and the risk of instrument collisions, potentially contributing to smoother workflows and lower complication rates. Conclusion: The Dome Port was effective for single-incision laparoscopic ileocecal resection and may facilitate safer surgical procedures. It is expected to become one of the options for future reduced port surgery.
