Now in its revised, updated Second Edition, this standard-setting reference is a complete how-to guide to the full range of laparoscopic techniques now used in gynecologic surgery and selected procedures in general surgery. Written by more than 40 acknowledged master surgeons, the book provides all the practical information laparoscopists and operating room support staff need--on equipment, techniques, electrosurgery, lasers, and specific laparoscopic procedures for a wide variety of conditions requiring pelvic or abdominal surgery.The Second Edition features many more full-color illustrations than the previous edition, obtained from state-of-the-art videographic equipment. This edition also provides expanded coverage of laparoscopically-assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH), urogynecologic procedures, and non-gynecologic surgery. New chapters cover hiatal hernia repair, subtotal LAVH, lymph node dissection, and laparoscopic retropubic urethropexy. A list of equipment manufacturers is also included.
