Laparo-endoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) is a step toward an even less invasive surgical procedure. LESS is being performed for a wide variety of procedures. Use of a natural scar, the umbilicus, for introduction of the trocar improves the cosmetic effect. We describe LESS right hemicolectomy. Hospital stay was 3 days and no postoperative complications were observed. LESS colectomy can provide satisfactory oncological resection.
