| Core Tip |
This retrospective cohort study compares modified two-port (MTP), single-port (SP), and three-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) to determine the optimal balance between invasiveness, efficiency, safety, and cosmetic outcomes. MTP LC demonstrated the shortest operative and recovery times, no complications, and excellent scar concealment, outperforming SP and three-port. While SP LC achieved similar cosmetic results, it was limited by prolonged operative time and higher infection risk. These findings highlight MTP LC as a preferred, patient-centered approach for symptomatic gallbladder disease. |
