Endokomvos: A Simple and Secure Intracorporeal Laparoscopic Knot
نویسندگان
چکیده
Accurate placing of securely tied knots in laparoscopic surgery is technically demanding and time consuming. Surgeons must face difficulties arising from 2-dimensional vision, spatial limitations, and restricted movement. Issues to be taken into account include security, virtuosity, and cost effectiveness. The authors believe that in spite of advances in instrumentation and optics, training should aim at manual skill development and application of the basic principles of general surgery.

Towards a Better Laparoscopic Knot: Using Knot Quality Scores to Evaluate Three Laparoscopic Knot-Tying Techniques
OBJECTIVE In the past, knot-tying techniques have been evaluated and compared, but there has been a scarcity of objective scoring systems in these comparison studies. Using an objective scoring system, we aimed to compare 3 types of knots: intracorporeal flat-square knots, intracorporeal slip-square knots, and extracorporeal square-knots for their Knot Quality Scores (KQS) and their rates of sl...
متن کاملA new knot-supporting instrument and knot technique for laparoscopic surgery.
BACKGROUND/AIM We report here an instrument designed by Dr Hasan Bdrekci that provides support to the knot to facilitate knot tying in laparoscopic procedures. We call the device the 'B6rekci knot-supporting instrument' and the technique 'B6rekci's knot technique' MATERIALS AND METHODS To evaluate the efficacy of this instrument, 17 surgeons performing laparoscopic surgery tied 3 knots using ...
متن کاملErgonomic laparoscopic varicocele ligation: A case and technical report
The goal of surgical treatment of the varicocele is to occlude the refluxing venous drainage to the testis while maintaining normal testicular function. Many surgical techniques for treating varicoceles have been described. We aim to present an adolescent case with varicocele treated by simple laparoscopic ligation technique using intracorporeal knot-tying.
متن کاملAnalysis and Physics of Laparoscopic Intracorporeal Square-Knot Tying
Square knots are often used in open surgery to approximate tissue borders or tie off tubular structures like vessels or ducts. Three common methods are used for surgical square-knot tying: one-hand tying, two-hand tying, and the instrument-tying technique. Two types of suture placements are studied in both the open and laparoscopic surgical fields. The first called equal length has suture segme...
متن کاملA simple technique for knot tying in single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS)
Minimal access surgery has been generally accepted as a method of operating through a very small incision or no incision at all. Today, all abdominal and thoracic surgeries can be performed with laparoscopy. Intracorporeal knot tying is an advanced skill that involves a difficult process with a long learning curve. In particular, when the angle between the working instruments is narrow and the ...
