Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Context:

  • Laparoscopic surgery has become a standard approach for various surgical procedures.
  • Its application in pediatric urology is expanding, requiring evaluation of safety and outcomes.

Purpose:

  • To assess the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic urological operations in a mixed adult and pediatric patient cohort.
  • To document the range of procedures performed and associated complication rates.

Summary:

  • A total of 230 laparoscopic urological procedures were performed on 205 patients (48 children) between 1991 and 1993.
  • The intra-operative complication rate was 2.5%, with 4 cases requiring conversion to laparotomy.
  • One serious postoperative complication (hernia) was noted in a pediatric patient. A wide array of urological conditions were treated, yielding satisfactory overall results.
