Popis: | BACKGROUND: An important step in laparoscopic surgery is abdominal access. Several abdominal access techniques have been described to reduce complications. We compare our novel abdominal access technique (MESAD) with other abdominal access techniques, particularly to reduce complications in obese patients. OBJECTIVE: Compare the MESAD method and other methods we use for abdominal access in gynecologic laparoscopic surgery of obese patients DESIGN: Retrospective SETTING: Gynecology department in university hospital PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients who underwent abdominal access by the MESAD technique, the Veress needle technique, and the Hasson technique were included in our study. In addition to demographic data, minor and major complications, number of unsuccessful attempts, conversion to another technique, and abdominal access times were collected from all patient files. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Clinical data and complications SAMPLE SIZE: 66 patients, 26 by MESAD technique, 24 by the Veress needle technique, and 16 by the Hasson technique. RESULTS: There were two major complications (one in the Veress group and one in the Hasson technique group) and 7 minor complications. No significant difference was found between the groups in terms of complications (P=.477, P=.476, respectively). The fastest technique for abdominal access was in the MESAD technique whereas the slowest was in the Hasson (P |
