Sumario:Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) approach is accepted as the gold standard in gallbladder surgeries in the world. However, today, cosmetic expectations of patients have led surgeons to define new surgical techniques that do not create visible scar on the abdominal wall. Two common and well-known techniques for this purpose are natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) and single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SİLS). These techniques have long-learning curve and difficulty of implementation, so that have not become widespread. Alternatively, the placement of laparoscopic ports in less visible areas of the body such as the bikini line, termed alternative port site selection (APSS), may result in further improved cosmesis. Laparoscopic Bikini Line Cholecystectomy (LBLC) can be classified into two main groups as Full Bikini Line Cholecystectomy (FBLC) and Modified Bikini Line Cholecystectomy (MBLC), depending on inputs of the ports.
