Popis: From retroperitoneoscopic lumbar sympathectomy to total laparoscopic abdominal aorta surgery: how to learn. Abstract: The aim of this report is to describe the steps we followed to build up laparoscopic experience progressively towards total laparoscopic aorta surgery. The techniques of retroperitoneoscopic lumbar sympathectomy, hand-assisted laparoscopic aorta surgery and total laparoscopic aorta surgery are discussed and illustrated. Surgical tips and tricks and advice concerning selection of patients and surgical techniques are proposed. The 30-day morbidity and mortality rates of laparoscopic, standard open and endovascular abdominal aorta aneurysm repair were compared.
