  • Title: [Laparoscopy in perforated gastroduodenal ulcers].
    Author: Shurkalin BK, Kriger AG, Faller AP, Rzhebaev KE.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1998; 157(3):69-72. PubMed ID: 9751978.
    Abstract:
    The authors have performed operations on 32 patients with perforated ulcers of the duodenum and 7 patients with perforated ulcers of the stomach. The diameter of the perforations was 2-8 mm. In 10 of the 39 patients the perforation defects could not be sutured by the laparoscopic method. The authors consider that of great significance for the decision to make laparoscopic operations was the diagnosis of peritonitis, size and localization of the perforation, the surgeon's experience with endoscopic operating. The technique of laparoscopic suturing the perforations is described. Special attention is paid to the special disposition of the surgeon and his assistant at the operating table.
