Tratamento cirúrgico videolaparoscópico de insulinomas utilizando ultra-sonografia intra-operatória

Abstract: The videolaparoscopic approach for the surgical treatment of insulinoma is feasible. The intraoperative ultrasonography helps to identify the lesions and check their complete resection with low complication rate.

“…There are several methods of imaging available, being necessary usually more than one for location of the lesion. CT scan showed positivity in 25%, similar to other series, but below the sensitivity of 63% described for helicoidal CT 5,13 . Ultrasonography revealed positivity in 33%, well above described, which can be explained by the size and location of the three lesions that were found by ultrasound in this series.…”
