Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery on experimental animal models

Our goal was to find a very good model for gynecological laparoscopic operations. The main purpose of the operations was to perform the same types of laparoscopic operations as we use daily in our clinical practice at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. UMSD. The uterus of female dogs seemed to be ideal for this work. In every experiment we carried out 10 different interventions on identical part of different dog uterus. The operations were performed at identical time period of day (a.m.). The weight of the female dogs were similar. The anaesthesia was also performed the same way in every case. The main purpose of the operations was to find some significant changes or differences between the 10 different surgical techniques. The hystological investigation were carried out with normal microscope and electron microscope.
