In recent years, the adoption of single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) for colorectal procedures has significantly increased in clinical practice both domestically and internationally, supported by progressively robust evidence. Furthermore, the emergence of novel operative platforms, such as robotic single-incision laparoscopic systems, has brought unprecedented evolution and transformation to the indications and technical procedures of SILS for colorectal surgery. Consequently, the existing consensus urgently requires revision and updating to meet the pressing need for standardized guidance in current clinical practice. To address this need, the Single-incision Laparoscopic Surgery Group of Colorectal Cancer Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, building upon the 2019 expert consensus on SILS for colorectal surgery, has convened a panel of leading domestic experts experienced in this field to update this consensus. This initiative aims to promote the continued standardized, efficient, and beneficial development of single-incision laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
