Laparoscopic surgery, also called minimally invasive surgery (MIS), bandaid surgery, keyhole surgery is a modern surgical technique in which operations in the abdomen are performed through small incisions (usually 0.5-1.5cm) as compared to larger incisions needed in traditional surgical procedures. Laparoscopic surgery includes operations within the abdominal or pelvic cavities, whereas keyhole surgery performed on the thoracic or chest cavity is called thoracoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic and thoracoscopic surgery belong to the broader field of endoscopy. The key element in laparoscopic surgery is the use of a laparoscope. There are two types a telescopic rod lens system, that is usually connected to a video camera (single chip or three chip) or a digital laparoscope where the charge-coupled device is placed at the end of the laparoscope, eliminating the rod lens system.[1] Also attached is a fiber optic cable system connected to a 'cold' light source (halogen or xenon), to illuminate the operative field, inserted through a 5 mm or 10 mm cannula or trocar to view the operative field. The abdomen is usually insufflated with carbon dioxide gas to create a working and viewing space. The abdomen is essentially blown up like a balloon (insufflated), elevating the abdominal wall above the internal organs ...

Minimally Invasive Surgery - Hospitals of Regina Foundation



As Mediacal Director for the Women's Health Clinic at the Regina General Hospital, Dr. John Thiel is proud to offer patients from across southern Saskatchewan care that is second to none in the country, thanks to two new Minimally Invasive Surgical (MIS) suites funded by Hospitals of Regina Foundation donors. "When I operate, I think how lucky I am to operate in a suite like this, which is as good as any operating theatre in Canada or in the US," says Dr. Thiel. "I like that feeling. I like knowing that when I'm in Regina, I'm offering my patients the same care they would get in Toronto, in Vancouver, or in San Francisco. Thiel, a gynecologist and endoscopic surgeon, explains that the new equipment uses cutting edge laparoscopic technology and high definition imaging. "When I bring people in here to show them the equipment, they are blown away by the quality of the images," he says. "Right from something as simple as equipment on a boom up to high definition monitors and the capture system, it's just been state-of-the-art equipment and has made our jobs as surgeons much easier."

8373GS Novel Transanal Operation for Rectal Cancer Combining Ultrasonic Dissection, Titanium Knot...



TITLE: Novel Transanal Operation for Rectal Cancer Combining Ultrasonic Dissection, Titanium Knot, and the Storz Rectoscope Background: Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) allows a precise, full-thickness resection of rectal tumors. However, the standard TEM technique needs complex and expensive equipment, and is associated with bleeding that may be challenging. A modified TEM procedure combining the ultrasonic Harmonic dissection and Titanium Knot quick load via the Storz operation rectoscope has been developed to overcome the limitations of the traditional TEM procedure. Case Report: A 71-year-old morbidly obese male was referred for surgical management of invasive rectal adenocarcinoma diagnosed on routine colonoscopy. Repeat sigmoidoscopy revealed evidence of 2.5-cm mass 7cm from the anal verge (T1 lesion on endoscopic ultrasound). Combining ultrasonic Harmonic dissection, Titanium Knot quick load system, and the Storz operation rectoscope were used for full-thickness resection. The patients postoperative course was uneventful, and he was discharged home the next morning. Pathologic examination of the specimen confirmed negative margins. Conclusion: Ultrasonic dissection provides a fairly bloodless field. For tumors located up to 20cm from the anal verge, modified transanal operation with the Storz operation rectoscope, Ultrasonic dissection, and Titanium Knot quick load system is feasible, cheaper, and should be considered.

Lap Sleeve Gastrectomy Abroad - Costa Rica Medical Tourism Testimonial



www.medicaltourismco.com Peggy and Debra Berg, the mother-daughter duo from California, had their lap gastric sleeve operation in Costa Rica on the same day by the same bariatric surgeon in the same hospital. This video was recorded 11 months after their sleeve gastrectomy surgery in Costa Rica. They had tried all kinds of diets like Weight watchers, south east diet, fruit diet, and so on. They also tried working out in the gym. Because of their higher BMI, they had problems like knee pain and co-morbidities like high cholesterol, and high blood pressure. But gastric sleeve in the US was beyond their budget. Another problem they faced was that Peggy was considered ineligible for bariatric surgery in the US. She was 70 years old when she got the surgery done; 60 is the cut-off for weight loss surgery in the US. So, they researched on the net for cheaper options for sleeve resection surgery and found Medical Tourism Corporation. They decided on Costa Rica for their weight loss surgery and ended up saving about 40% of what theyd have to pay in the US. Debra is pleased that Medical Tourism Corporation answered all the questions, and she asked many. The hospital in Costa Rica to which they went had all the modern equipment and the staff was courteous and professional. There were always English-speaking people around them or they had interpreters. They stayed in private rooms at the hospital which were spacious enough for a companion. Post-gastric sleeve surgery, Debra lost 80 ...
