Laparoscopic management of symptomatic urachal remnants in adulthood

Abstract: Laparoscopy is a useful alternative for the management of persistent or infected urachus, especially when its presence is clinically suspected despite the lack of sonographic evidence. The procedure is associated with low morbidity, although a small risk of bladder injury exists, particularly in cases of severe active inflammation. Recurrence is uncommon and was caused by inadequate excision of inflammatory tissue in our series that was easily managed laparoscopically.

“…Some argue and we agree, that excision of a cuff of the bladder is necessary to avoid recurrence and avoid possible occurrence of carcinoma in residual urachal tissue in particular if the urachal cyst is adherent and attached to the dome of the bladder with communication between the cyst and bladder, especially if this is demonstrated by imaging (2).…”

“…A laparoszkópos technika előnyei itt is tetten érhetők: az urachus maradványa az első hasfalon a 30 fokos optikával, nagyított ké-pen jobban látható, és végig követhető a Retzius-spatiumtól a köldökig. Esztétikailag szebb eredmény érhető el [16], és az esetlegesen gyulladt köldök is elkerülhető ily módon. Esetünkben a beteg obesitasa is a laparoszkó-pos megoldás mellett szólt.…”

“…Egy centrumban laparoszkóppal operált több mint 4 betegről a cikk megírásáig 8 közlemény számolt be, ezekben összesen 72 beteg műtétjéről számoltak be [16]. Ezenkívül számos esetismertetés szól laparoszkó-pos műtéti megoldásról.…”
