In this video, we will disscuss that Mastering Multiple Laparoscopic Procedures: Cholecystectomy, Ovarian Drilling, and Appendectomy in One Operative Session
 
In the evolving landscape of minimally invasive surgery, the ability to seamlessly perform multiple laparoscopic procedures in a single operative session marks a significant advancement in patient care and surgical efficiency. In this video, we demonstrate a comprehensive approach to three common laparoscopic procedures: Cholecystectomy, Ovarian Drilling, and Appendectomy.
 
Overview of the Procedures
 
1. Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
- Indicated for symptomatic gallstones or cholecystitis.
- The video illustrates critical view of safety dissection, cystic duct and artery clipping, and safe gallbladder removal from the liver bed.
 
2. Ovarian Drilling
- Commonly used in the management of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) to induce ovulation.
- The technique shown utilizes a monopolar needle or harmonic scalpel to puncture the ovarian cortex precisely and effectively, minimizing thermal damage.
 
3. Laparoscopic Appendectomy
- Performed for acute or chronic appendicitis.
- The surgical approach includes clear visualization of the appendix, secure mesoappendix sealing, and base ligation, followed by safe retrieval.
 
Technique Highlights
 
- Port Placement Strategy: The port configuration is planned strategically to allow optimal instrument triangulation and access to all three operative fields without repositioning the patient.
- Energy Devices: The use of advanced bipolar or ultrasonic devices for dissection and hemostasis ensures precision and safety.
- Intraoperative Coordination: Demonstrates how an experienced surgical team can perform multiple procedures with efficiency, minimizing operative time and reducing overall anesthesia exposure.
 
 Benefits of Combined Laparoscopic Approach
 
- Single hospital admission and anesthesia exposure.
- Reduced recovery time and postoperative pain.
- Lower healthcare costs and improved patient satisfaction.
