Area of Science:

  • Surgical Innovation
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Vascular pedicle ligature is crucial in laparoscopic surgery.
  • Existing methods may pose challenges in achieving secure hemostasis.
  • A need exists for safe and efficient ligation techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel, safe, and convenient method for ligating vascular pedicles during laparoscopic procedures.
  • To describe the technique for a two-turn throw incomplete loop ligature.
  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of this technique in clinical practice.

Main Methods:

  • The technique involves an extracorporeal two-turn wrap of a loop, locked intracorporeally.
  • Knot tying is completed with subsequent non-tension throws.
  • The procedure is performed using one laparoscopic and two auxiliary ports.

Main Results:

  • The method has been successfully employed in laparoscopic surgery for over 2.5 years.
  • No instances of ligature failure have been recorded.
  • No late hemorrhages have been observed in the study period.

Conclusions:

  • The two-turn throw incomplete loop ligature is a reliable technique for achieving hemostasis.
  • It is particularly useful in three-port pelviscopic operations.
  • The technique offers a safe and convenient approach to vascular pedicle management.
