“…Except some pioneers (7)(8)(9)(10)(11), majority of vascular surgeons have been discouraged by technical specificities of laparoscopy and by the need to acquire new technical skills which are completely different from open and endovascular techniques. Laparoscopic AAA repair is conducted like in open surgery with three main steps, namely aortic approach, aneurysmorraphy and graft interposition.…”

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair enters the field of laparoscopic surgery. Main advantage of laparoscopic AAA repair is to perform the gold standard endoaneurysmorraphy with a reduced surgical trauma. Since 2001, the technique has evolved and is now well-established. We describe the standard technique of totally laparoscopic endoaneurysmorraphy with tube graft interposition through a transperitoneal left retrorenal approach. Main technical points are discussed.

“…This is especially important with regard to the long-term sequelae of the surgical procedure, like adhesions and ventral hernias. [15][16][17][18] When a total laparoscopic program is started, time limits should be set to avoid problems with ischemia or blood loss. Perseverance beyond a certain point can cause harm to the patient, considering that the surgeon can be unaware of the time already spent.…”

Total laparoscopic aneurysm resection can be offered to the majority of patients in our institution. The robot still requires further refinements to reduce operating times and the aortic cross-clamping period. We now have the technique and the instrumentation to offer laparoscopic aneurysm surgery as a minimally invasive alternative for patients whose conditions are unsuitable for endovascular aneurysm repair.

“…2D). During these courses, the surgeon receives didactic informations (techniques, difficulties, results) and also performs hands-on work in pelvitrainers and live animals (totally laparoscopic and laparoscopy-assisted (14,15)). These courses are made so that he learns what are the skills required to perform totally laparoscopic work.…”

History and Perspectives in Laparoscopic Vascular Surgery

Laparoscopic techniques have changed the face of many surgical specialties. In this article, we describe the evolution of laparoscopy in vascular surgery from its beginning in the early 1990s. We discuss the present laparoscopic techniques for treatment of aortoiliac disease, their advantages and limitations. We suggest the vascular surgeon learns laparoscopy on the model used in general surgery a decade ago. Although more studies are needed to further define the role of laparoscopy, present indications can be found in those patients with TASC III and IV occlusive lesions and in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms who are candidate to tube grafts or aortobifemoral bypass. With further refinements in technology (anastomotic stapling device, robotics) and techniques, laparoscopy should replace many open surgeries presently done for aortoiliac disease but will also have to be considered for treatment of mesenteric disease as described in the text.

Laparoscopy-assisted abdominal aortic aneurysm endoaneurysmorraphy: Early and mid-term results

Abstract: This minimally invasive video-assisted technique provides good postoperative comfort and excellent mid-term results. Developments in experience and instrumentation have enabled us to include a growing number of patients and to reduce the duration of the procedure.
