Laparoscopic Removal of an Artery Forceps

چکیده
Numerous foreign bodies, such as surgical gauze, pads and instruments, and other items, have been left behind in the abdominal cavity during open surgeries. These have been traditionally removed at redo open surgeries. Here we describe a case of an artery forceps left behind at a previous surgery (open cholecystectomy and appendicectomy) performed 5 years earlier that was removed by laparoscopy.

Specimen extraction is an important step of laparoscopic liver resection. The size of the specimen is usually a limitation for the use of laparoscopy. The aim of this paper is to describe a new technique combining Pfannenstiel suprapubic i...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To remove a foreign body from the peritoneal cavity in laparoscopic surgery, 2 or 3 ports are usually used. We have recently performed such a removal using a single 10-mm transumbilical port, a 0-degree laparoscope, a Farabeuf retractor, and a laparoscopic grasping forceps. METHODS Two patients with ventriculoperitoneal shunt catheter (V-P shunt) were admitted to our...
متن کاملMaster–slave manipulator for laparoscopic surgery using a 6-axis vertical articulated robot
Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgery that accelerates postoperative recovery, but it can only be performed by surgeons with advanced surgical skills. One of the main difficulties in laparoscopic surgery is restriction of free motion of the forceps because of limited degrees of freedom by the trocar. Recently, many master–slave manipulators with a remote center-of-motion mechanis...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to present our experience with a novel approach called the pierce and push (PP) method which uses a stainless steel centimeter probe instead of a 5 mm claw forceps to enucleate fibroids in a laparoscopic myomectomy (LM). METHODS A retrospective chart review of 90 women with symptomatic uterine fibroids who underwent an LM was performed. Cases of LM with th...
