  • Chapter 1 History of Laparoscopic Surgery
    Chapter 1 History of Laparoscopic Surgery Kiyokazu Nakajima, Jeffrey W. Milsom, and Bartholomäus Böhm Although laparoscopic surgery has transformed surgery only in the past two decades, its evolution is only the natural byproduct of the medical doctor’s curiosity to directly visualize and treat surgical dis- eases. The earliest known attempts to look inside the living human body date from 460 to 375 BC, from the Kos school of medicine led by Hippocrates in Greece.1,2 They described a rectal examination using a speculum remarkably similar to the instruments we use today. Similar specula were discovered in the ruins of Pompeii (70 AD) that were used to examine the vagina, the cervix, and the rectum, and obtain an inside view of the nose and ear.1 The Babylonian Talmud written in 500 AD described a lead siphon, named “Siphophert,” with a mouthpiece, which was bent inward and held a mechul (wooden drain).1,3 The apparatus was introduced into the vagina and was used to differentiate between vaginal and uterine bleeding. During these early years ambient light was used. The term “endoscopein” is attributed to Avicenna (Ibn Sina, 980–1037 AD) of Persia, although an Arabian physician, Albulassim (912–1013 AD), who placed a mirror in front of the exposed vagina, was the fi rst to use refl ected light as a source of illumination for an endoscopic examination. Giulio Caesare Aranzi in Venice (1530–1589) developed the fi rst endoscopic light in 1587. He used the Benedictine monk Don Panuce’s principle of the “camera obscura” for medical purposes – the

  • Hybrid Procedure Offers a Less Invasive Alternative to Colectomy
    The better way to get better Hybrid procedure offers a less invasive alternative to colectomy Insufflation gas provides important advantage The colonoscopy-laparoscopy procedure is made possible through the combined skills of the gastroenterologist and laparoscopic surgeon, and the use of CO2 rather than ambient air for insufflation — the introduction of gas into the colon to improve visibility. CO2 is more quickly absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract and results in less bowel distension, giving the laparoscopic surgeon a better field of vision within the abdominal cavity. © Copyright Olympus.

  • Operative Laparoscopy
    Operative Laparoscopy Technique Procedure involves the placement of a laparoscope (special telescope with a video camera attached) into the abdomen at the belly button. The pelvis including the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, bladder and appendix are all visualized to determine the source of the patient's problem. The treatment necessary is determined based upon what the surgeon sees during this exam. Potential treatments include ovarian cyst removal, ovarian removal, excision or destruction of endometriosis, and removal of scar tissue. Incisions 3-4 small incisions (less than one inch) are made on the abdomen for this procedure. Operative Time Operative times vary greatly depending on the findings at the time of surgery. Your surgeon will proceed with safety as his/her first priority. Average times range from 45-90 minutes. Anesthesia General anesthesia Preoperative Care Nothing by mouth after midnight The procedure is usually scheduled immediately after your menstrual period. Hospital Stay Day surgery or 23 hour observation Postoperative Care These guidelines are intended to give you a general idea of your postoperative course. Since every patient is unique and has a unique procedure, your recovery may differ. You will be prescribed both an anti-inflammatory and a narcotic pain medicine for postoperative use. We recommend that anti-inflammatory medications, such as ibuprofen, naproxen, etc., be used on a scheduled (regular) basis and that narcotic pain medicine be utilized on an "as needed" basis. Driving is allowed after your procedure only when you do not require the narcotic pain medicine to manage your pain. Patients may return to work in 2-3 days following the procedure.

  • Procedure Coding in ICD-9-CM and ICD- 10-PCS
    Procedure Coding in ICD-9-CM and ICD- 10-PCS ICD-9-CM Volume 3 Procedures are classified in volume 3 of ICD-9-CM, and this section includes both an Alphabetic Index and a Tabular List. This volume follows the same format, organization and conventions as the classification of diseases in volumes 1 and 2. ICD-10-PCS ICD-10-PCS will replace volume 3 of ICD-9-CM. Unlike ICD-10-CM for diagnoses, which is similar in structure and format as the ICD-9-CM volumes 1 and 2, ICD-10-PCS is a completely different system. ICD-10-PCS has a multiaxial seven-character alphanumeric code structure providing unique codes for procedures. The table below gives a brief side-by-side comparison of ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-PCS. ICD-9-CM Volume3 ICD-10-PCS Follows ICD structure (designed for diagnosis Designed and developed to meet healthcare coding) needs for a procedure code system Codes available as a fixed or finite set in list form Codes constructed from flexible code components (values) using tables Codes are numeric Codes are alphanumeric Codes are 3-4 digits long All codes are seven characters long ICD-9-CM and ICD-10-PCS are used to code only hospital inpatient procedures. Hospital outpatient departments, other ambulatory facilities, and physician practices are required to use CPT and HCPCS to report procedures.

Abstract Go to: Minimally Invasive Single Site (MISS) surgery is a better terminology to explain the novel concept of scarless surgery, which is increasingly making its way into clinical practice. But, there are some difficulties. We review the existing technologies for MISS surgery with regards to single-port devices, endoscope and camera, instruments, retractors and also the future perspectives for the evolution of MISS surgery. While we need to move ahead cautiously and wait for the development of appropriate technology, we believe that the “Ultimate form of Minimally Invasive Surgery” will be a hybrid form of MISS surgery and Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery, complimented by technological innovations from the fields of robotics and computer-assisted surgery.

  • Laparoscopic Surgery for Endometriosis
    Laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis Introduction This leaflet covers laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis. It provides information for women who have been offered or are considering laparoscopic surgery for the treatment of endometriosis. Medical terms have been highlighted in italics. Diagnosis of endometriosis Endometriosis is best diagnosed and assessed by actually looking at the disease. This is the only means of making a definite diagnosis. Laparoscopy is an operation in which a small telescope (laparoscope) is inserted into the abdomen to look directly at the tissues. A laparoscopy is carried out under general anaesthetic. At the same time various procedures can be performed in order to destroy or remove the endometriosis, endometriotic cysts and release scar tissue (adhesions). Is laparoscopy always needed to diagnose endometriosis? Laparoscopy is the best test to diagnose endometriosis. Endometriosis can sometimes be felt on vaginal examination or an endometriotic cyst seen on an ultrasound scan. A normal vaginal examination or a normal scan does not exclude endometriosis. A blood test measuring a protein, CA 125, may assist, however a raised level is not specific to endometriosis. It indicates irritation or inflammation inside the body and can be raised in endometriosis, as well as appendicitis, pelvic infection and ovarian cysts. A raised level does not mean a diagnosis of cancer. Laparoscopic surgery is only one type of surgical procedure for endometriosis. It does not, as is commonly thought, turn a major operation into a minor one. It has the advantage of smaller cuts on the tummy (abdomen) and slightly shorter recovery than a bikini line cut (laparotomy). Laparoscopic surgery may not be suitable for all patients.

Medical College, Bhavnagar, Gujarat, India For correspondence: Ashish Bhanot, C-7 Doctors Quarters, Sir T. Hospital Campus, Bhavnagar - 364 001, Gujarat, India. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT ‘Foreign’ means originating elsewhere or simply ‘outside the body.’ Foreign body rectum is not as common as other parts of the body. Rectal foreign bodies present are difficult to manage. Emergency-department Case Report procedures include rectal examination, proctoscopy and abdominal radiography. Soft or low-lying objects having an edge could be grasped and removed safely in the emergency department, but grasping hard objects is potentially traumatic and occasionally results in upward migration toward the sigmoid. Although foreign bodies can be removed in the emergency department in about two out of three cases, some 10% still require a laparotomy and a diverting colostomy to remove the object or to treat bowel perforation. We are presenting a case of laparoscopic assisted removal of tumbler using 10 mm suction cannula to push the object down. Laparoscopy helped not only in retrieval but also enabled visualizing any bowel perforation due to foreign body and its manipulation. Key words: 10 mm suction cannula, foreign body rectum, laparoscopic assisted, sigmoid colostomy How to cite this article: Bhanot A, Patel GR, Bachani M, Gohil VD.
