A device for producing a pneumoperitoneum in a medical procedure includes a main body having a ring portion defining a main opening, and a domed portion extending from the ring portion to an apex. The ring portion is adapted to form a positive seal with the skin of the patient upon application of a suction force within the main body abutting the patient. The device includes a suction port extending from the domed portion of the main body and is configured to facilitate application of the suction within the main body. The access port is operably engaged with the domed portion of the main body proximate to the apex and is adapted to receive a surgical instrument therethrough. A pair of opposed grips operably engaged with the domed portion of the main body is adapted to facilitate one-handed application and removal of the main body with respect to the patient.
