This study introduces a combined laparoscopic and conventional surgical technique for pediatric cases. This safe and convenient approach expands minimally invasive surgery beyond specialized centers.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Laparoscopic procedures are increasingly important in pediatric surgery.
  • Wider adoption requires accessible training and experience-building methods.
  • Current practice often limits advanced laparoscopy to specialized centers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a combined diagnostic laparoscopy and conventional surgery approach.
  • To assess the feasibility and safety of this hybrid technique in pediatric patients.
  • To expand the application of minimally invasive surgery in pediatric surgical centers.

Main Methods:

  • A combined approach using laparoscopy for diagnosis and conventional surgery for treatment was applied.
  • The technique was utilized in 27 pediatric cases, including appendectomies, ovarian tumor resections, and Meckel's diverticulum resections.

  • Data on complications and outcomes were collected.

    • Main Results:

    • The combined technique was successfully applied in 27 pediatric cases.
    • Specific procedures included 11 appendectomies, 14 ovarian tumor resections, and 2 Meckel's diverticulum resections.
    • No complications were reported in any of the cases treated with this method.

    Conclusions:

    • The combined laparoscopic and conventional surgical technique is a safe and convenient method.
    • This approach facilitates the expansion of minimally invasive surgery in pediatric care.
    • It offers a practical way to gain experience and manage complex pediatric surgical conditions.
