| Abstract | ||||
| Background Laparoscopic surgery has become the gold standard approach for almost all abdominal surgeries with subsequent increase of its related complications mainly trocar-site hernia. Patients and methods This is a prospective interventional study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nasr fascial closure, time needed to close the trocar site and occurrence of bleeding or other postoperative complications. We included patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery in General Surgery Department, Aswan University Hospital. Results One hundred seventy patients were included in our study. Most of participants were females representing 94.1% of patients. The mean age of participants was 40.9±9.7 years and the median (interquartile range) total time for the complete closure of the port site was 63.0 s (76.8 s). After the follow-up period of 12–15 months, no patient developed trocar-site hernia. Conclusion Nasr device provides a safe, fast and effective technique for closure of laparoscopic port sites. | ||||
