  • Title: [Open laparoscopic approach--an alterative to the Veress needle. Experiences after 1,000 laparoscopies].
    Author: Rumstadt B, Werthmann K, Jentschura D, Stark E.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1996 Sep; 67(9):949-51. PubMed ID: 8991778.
    Abstract:
    A mini-laparotomy as described by Hasson was used in a modified way in 1000 laparoscopic procedures. In comparison with the insertion of a Veress needle we find the open approach to be a safer and quicker way of obtaining pneumoperitoneum.
