Laparoscopic ovariectomy in rabbits

Laparoscopic Ovariectomy in Pigs

Laparoscopic ovariohysterctomy is considered as an appropriate substitute for open procedure because of the less morbidity associated with its use (Austin et al., 2003). Smaller incision, less complication and decreased post-operative pain are main advantages of laparoscopic ovariohysterectomy (Davidson et al., 2004). Ovariectomy in pig is a very common surgical procedure in Mizoram. People in ...

Bilateral Laparoscopic Ovariectomy in Standing Mares

Bilateral laparoscopic ovariectomy performed in standing mares eliminates many of the potential complications associated with traditional methods of ovariectomy. When compared with previously described techniques, the technique described here requires minimal laparoscopic instrumentation. Dissection of the ovarian pedicle prior to ligation is considered essential to ligature security. Authors’ ...

Ventral Abdominal Approach for Laparoscopic Ovariectomy in Horses

Eleven mares and four mules were ovariectomized by a ventral abdominal laparoscopic technique. This approach required tilting the operative table about 30 degrees elevating the pelvis to allow observation of the ovaries. A triangulation technique with a single laparoscopic portal and four instrument portals was used. The ovarian pedicles were ligated and the ovaries were removed through a singl...

Ligature slippage during standing laparoscopic ovariectomy in a mare.

Suture ligature failure is a potential complication during laparoscopic ovariectomy techniques utilizing ligatures as a means of hemostasis. This complication in the standing mare and the successful use of laparoscopic electrosurgical instrumentation as the sole means of providing hemostasis to the mesovarium of a mare are described.
