term most often used with laparoscopic procedures.  I found several sites mentioning an intraumbilical incision.  Here is an excerpt from a sample report from another MT site: 


OPERATIVE PROCEDURE: LAPAROSCOPIC BLADDER NECK SUSPENSION

Trocar placement may vary according to the preference of the surgeon. Usually, a 10-mm trocar is placed through an intraumbilical incision and another 10-mm trocar is placed suprapubically, followed by two 5-mm trocars placed laterally. Laparoscopes with different viewing angles are available. The selection of a straight or angled optic is the surgeon's personal choice. We prefer the straight, forward optic.
