Core Tip	The single-port laparoscopic technique is widely used by surgeons worldwide because it results in minimal surgical stress and fast postoperative recovery. Our center first reported a modified protocol of single-port laparoscopic appendectomy using needle-type grasping forceps (SLAN) for an adult patient with acute simple appendicitis, further expanding the indications and safety of the initial protocol. The patient recovered smoothly after surgery, the pain response was mild, the umbilical incision was small and hidden, the cosmetic effect was good, and no postoperative complications were observed. Our results showed that the modified technical protocol of SLAN may be a preferential surgical option for acute simple appendicitis.
