A Pfannenstiel Single-site Nephrectomy and Nephroureterectomy: A Practical Application of Laparoendoscopic Single-site Surgery
Urology, 08/06/09
Ponsky LE et al. – LESS nephrectomy and nephroureterectomy using only a Pfannenstiel incision are technically feasible and reproducible in human beings if performed by surgeons with standard laparoscopic skills. Using standard and bariatric length laparoscopic instruments, the procedures were performed without complication, with minimal blood loss and minimal variance from standard laparoscopic techniques. We anticipate that this approach can be incorporated by the urologist adept at laparoscopic surgery and provides a practical application of LESS surgery for extirpative procedures.
