A Y-shaped vinyl hood that creates pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery: a new technique for laparoscopic low anterior resection
Surgical Endoscopy, 06/17/09

Fujii S et al. - The Y-Hood method enables operations to be performed within the interior of the pelvis without reducing the number of ports because the instruments can be accessed using minilaparotomy. Because the use of stapling for rectal transection is minimized, this method is effective in avoiding anastomotic leakage and also cost efficient. The Y-Hood method allows for thorough intestinal lavage and safe laparoscopic low anterior resection.
