Computed tomography scan showed adipose tissue and the falciform ligament in the upper abdominal midline suggesting a linea alba hernia. Surgical repair was undertaken for progressive symptoms using single-incision laparoscopic surgery( SILS). A 2.5cm incision was made at the umbilicus and EZ access TM( HAKKO, Tokyo) placed.Two 5mm ports were inserted and a wrap protector attached. We inserted a 2mm port and forceps to assist. Adipose tissue and the round ligament of the liver were incarcerated in the abdominal wall hernia.They were reduced and we found a linea alba hernia defect measuring 2cm, which was repaired with mesh.We used a tip flexion type tacker and fixed the mesh using the double crown technique. SILS assist with 2mm forceps repair of a linea alba hernia is safe and effective with a good cosmetic outcome.}, pages = {15--18}, title = {Single incision laparoscopic surgery repair of a linea alba hernia}, volume = {42}, year = {2020} }
