Prone positioning facilitates retroperitoneal endoscopic surgery by improving access and reducing the need for retraction. The modified open Hasson technique is recommended for retroperitoneal access in these procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Surgical techniques
  • Minimally invasive surgery
  • Experimental surgery

Background:

  • Retroperitoneal endoscopic procedures offer minimally invasive options.
  • Patient positioning is crucial for surgical access and efficiency.
  • Evaluating novel approaches enhances surgical capabilities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility and benefits of retroperitoneal endoscopic procedures in the prone position.
  • To evaluate specific surgical interventions using this approach.
  • To identify optimal access techniques for prone retroperitoneal surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Experimental studies were conducted on pigs.
  • Procedures included nephrectomy, para-aortic lymph node dissection, lumbar sympathectomy, and assisted aorto-femoral bypass.

  • The modified open Hasson technique was used for retroperitoneal access.

    • Main Results:

    • The prone position effectively created a retroperitoneal working space.
    • Extensive retraction and additional ports were not required.
    • The modified open Hasson technique proved to be a suitable access method.

    Conclusions:

    • Prone positioning is advantageous for retroperitoneal endoscopic surgery.
    • This positioning enhances working space and reduces the need for extensive retraction.
    • The modified open Hasson technique is the preferred method for retroperitoneal access in this setting.
