Staged Laparoscopic Adjuvant Intraperitoneal Chemohyperthermia (ipch) After Complete Resection for Locally Advanced Colorectal or Gastric Cancer
Purpose: Cytoreductive surgery followed by intraperitoneal chemohyperthermia (IPCH) is a promising treatment for patients with peritoneal malignancies. Usually, IPCH is performed concomitantly with cytoreductive surgery for peritoneal cancinomatosis (PC) or more occasionally as an adjuvant treatment after gastric resection for cancer. In this report, we describe our experience with staged adjuvant laparoscopic IPCH after complete… Continue Reading

Camera-less Peritoneal Entry for Urologic (c-pet) Laparoscopy: Description of a Novel Technique
Background: Use of the EndoTIP rotational access port (Karl Storz, GMBH) with visual recognition and without prior insufflation has previously been shown to be a safe and efficient technique for obtaining peritoneal access for laparoscopic surgery1. An alternative peritoneal entry detection technique using a fluid column instead of a camera lens was evaluated. Methods: After… Continue Reading

Simultanous Emergency and Elective Surgery in a Single Laparoscopic Session: Is It Safe ?
Introduction:Many patients undergoing abdominal surgery have coexisting abdominal pathologies. In the majority of cases, these patients are subject to multiple operations, via the same laparoscopic or open approaches. When co-existing pathologies belong to different systems, or require the involvement of different surgical specialities, the trend has been to treat in a single anaesthesia. When feasible,… Continue Reading

Usefulness of Coagulating Shears in Subfascial Endoscopic Perforator Vein Surgery
Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a tremendous health care problem. Patients with advanced clinical sequelae such as lipodermatosclerosis or ulceration of CVI should be considered the presence of incompetent perforating veins. Venous disease affects a correlation between the superficial, deep, and perforator veins of the lower extremities. In general, the superficial venous deficits are addressed… Continue Reading

Laparoscopic Omentoplasty for Bronchial Stump Reinforcement in Pneumonectomy Patient.
Bronchopleural fistula represents one of the most serious complications after pneumonectomy with an incidence of 1% to 12%. Viable tissue reinforcement, which are pleura, intercostals muscle, pericardium, omentum etc., reduces this complication. Among these tissues pedicled omental flaps have been widely used because of better results due to abundance of viable tissue and excellent vascularization.… Continue Reading
