BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to reveal the short-term and long-term outcomes of single-incision laparoscopic colorectal resection (SILC) compared with multi-incision laparoscopic colorectal resection (MILC) for @entity14 using propensity score matching analysis. METHODS: The study group included 235 @entity1 who underwent SILC and 730 @entity1 who underwent MILC for @entity14 between April 2009 and September 2014. The propensity score matching for age, gender, body mass index, @entity5 location (right-sided colon/sigmoid colon/upper rectum), lymph node dissection (D1/D2/D3), pathologic T ( <=T3) stage and @entity2802 (0-I/II/III) stage produced 107 matched pairs. The exclusion criteria for SILC were as follows: (1) @entity5 located at the transverse, descending colon or lower rectum, (2) stage IV @entity5 , synchronous or previous @entity5 , (3) locally advanced @entity5 >T4, (4) acute obstructions or previous major abdominal surgery and (5) @entity28 @entity1 : BMI  >  30. RESULTS: No significant differences were observed in operating time, @entity548 volumes, starting time of liquid diet and length of hospital stay between the SILC and MILC groups. However, the SILC group showed less analgesic requirements (1.1 vs. 1.9 times; p  =  0.0006) and shorter length of incision (2.7 vs. 4.3  cm; p  =  0.0000) compared to MILC group. The overall rate of @entity260 was similar in both groups (2.8 vs. 3.7  %, p  =  0.70). The 5-year overall survival rate of SILC and MILC was 100 and 95  % (p  =  0.125) and 5-year disease-free survival rates in stages 0-III were 97 and 94  % (p  =  0.189), 100 and 92  % in stage II and 90 and 85  % in stage III, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that SILC for @entity14 is a safe and feasible option with better cosmetic results and @entity158 in strictly selected @entity1 . SILC can also produce good oncological results with similar postoperative outcomes to MILC.
