Core Tip	As surgical techniques continue to move towards less invasive techniques, single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is a valuable platform with distinct advantages and comparable or better outcomes than other minimally invasive platforms. The safety and feasibility of SILS for both benign and malignant colorectal disease has been proven, and this review of the history, current state, available technology, limitations to widespread use, and their solutions will be a valuable addition to the published literature. It will draw attention to the benefits and potentially increase use of the platform and minimally invasive surgery as a whole.
