Objectives Understand the history of laparoscopic surgery
Understand the physiologic benefits of laparoscopic surgery Awareness of the negative consequences of pneumoperitoneum Awareness of the effects of patient positioning as it relates to laparoscopy
3
History of Laparoscopic Surgery
Phillip Bozzini 1805-examines urethra of living patient using a simple tube and candelight 1843-first effective endoscope developed 1880-incandescent light bulb invented by Thomas Edison 1883-incandescent bulb adapted for use with cystoscope 1901-George Kelling examines the peritoneal cavity of a living dog using room air insufflation
5
History of Laparoscopic Surgery
1911-Hans Christian Jacobaeus of Sweden reports on results of laparoscopy and thoracoscopy in over 110 patients 1920-BH Ordnoff (United States) introduces pyramidal-tipped trocar 1924-Richard Zollikofer promotes use of CO2 as insufflation gas (rapid absorption) 1927-First textbook on laparoscopy published
6
History of Laparoscopic Surgery
1970’s-Palmer, Steptoe, Neuwirth, liston report a large series of laparoscopic tubal ligations Late 1970’s-laparoscpic oophorectomies, salpinectomies, and adnexectomies performed Where was general surgery when all this was happening?
7
History of Laparoscopic Surgery
Eric Muhe performs cholecystectomy using the “galloscope” in 1985
8
History of Laparoscopic Surgery
Why didn’t this stuff take off? Scopes were monocular Assistants could not see what the surgeon was seeing
9
History of Laparoscopic Surgery
1986-Miniature solid –state camera introduced (laparoscopic image now up on monitors) 1987-Philippe Mouret (France) performed the first laparoscopic cholecystectomy 1988-First laparoscopic cholecystectomy performed in the US From this point on the use of laparoscopy in general surgery rapidly expanded
10
Why is this such a big deal?
11
Major Milestones in Surgery
William Thomas Green Morton-1846 Birth of modern anesthesia Joseph Lister-1860’s Developer of Antiseptic Surgery
12
120 Years of Nothing
13
A Quantum Leap SAGES Meeting 1988 Within 10 years
77% of elective cholecystectomies done laparoscopically 68% of urgent cholecystectomies JACS 2008 Jan(1):28-32
14
Positive Effects of Laparoscopic Surgery
Pulmonary function maintained better (FEV1 and FVC) Less acute phase stress response Inflammatory response is dampened Less immunosuppression Decreased intra-abdominal adhesions Quicker GI tract recovery Decrease in wound complications
15
Negative Consequences of CO2 Pneumoperitoneum
Cardiovascular Tachycardia Decreased preload Increased afterload (mechanical, vasocontriction) Dysrhythmias Hypercarbia (PVC, VT, VF) Acidosis Sympathetic stimulation from decreased venous return Vagal stimulation
16
Summary-Cardiovascular Changes
17
Negative Consequences of CO2 Pneumoperitoneum
Pulmonary Decreased Lung Volumes (FRC, TV, VC) Decreased compliance Increased peak inspiratory pressure Atelectasis from diaphragm displacement Impaired oxygenation and ventilation
18
Summary-Pulmonary Changes
19
Negative Consequences of CO2 Pneumoperitoneum
Renal-decreased renal blood flow, GFR, and urine output Hepatic-decreased portal venous blood flow
20
Impact of Patient Positioning
Reverse Trendelenburg Pooling of blood in lower extremities (DVT risk) Decreased venous return, decreased preload Improved pulmonary function, decreased pressure on diaphragm
21
Impact of Patient Positioning
Trendelenburg Increased preload due to increased venous return Detrimental pulmonary function changes associated with CO2 pneumoperitoneum are accentuated
22
Contraindications to Laparoscopic Surgery
Relative Anatomic Contraindications Reoperative abdomen Intraperitoneal mesh Cirrhosis and portal hypertension Mechanical bowel obstruction Gravid Uterus Locally invasive cancers
23
Contraindications to Laparoscopic Surgery
Physiologic Limitations Pulmonary: CO2 retention/hypoventilation Cardiac: patients in hemorrhagic shock Neurologic: Acute brain injury (trendelenburg position increased ICP) Coagulopathy: rarely a contraindication with improved surgical technique and recombinant anticoagulation factors. UNCORRECTED coagulopathy is considered a contraindication to laparoscopic surgery
24
Laparoscopy in Pregnancy-Concerns
Decreased Cardiac Output (IVC pressure) Fetus depends upon maternal hemodynamic stability Primary cause of fetal demise is maternal hypotension and hypoxia Decreased uterine blood flow/increased intra-uterine pressure (Pneumoperitoneum) Both could lead to fetal hypoxia CO2 absorption leading to respiratory acidosis
25
Laparoscopic Surgery and Pregnancy
Laparoscopic surgery can be performed safely in the pregnant patient Second trimester is best Open access techniques safest Use lowest pressure possible (12 mm Hg or less) Greater pressures lead to fetal acidosis Semi-left decubitus position to relieve pressure on IVC Anti-embolic devices (higher DVT risk with pregnancy) Remember increased risk of aspiration in pregnancy Delayed gastric emptying Decreased lower esophageal sphincter tone Monitor maternal end tidal CO2 Continuous intra-operative fetal monitoring if the fetus is viable
26
New Frontiers in Minimally Invasive Surgery
SILS/SPA Often no visible scar, cosmetically superior Technically more difficult, longer OR times +/- less pain +/- more hernias? NOTES POEM (Per oral esophageal myotomy) Endoscopic therapies for GERD
27
Energy Devices Cautery (generator, application electrode, return electrode) Bipolar vs. Monopolar Cutting (continuous waveform) vs. Coag (intermittent waveform) Temperature degrees Celsius Significant lateral thermal spread causing tissue dehydration/vessel thrombosis Doesn’t work underwater (in blood)
28
Energy Devices Harmonic Scalpel Ultrasonic level vibrations (55K/sec)
Denatures protein via vibratory heat rather than electrical current Smaller lateral thermal spread Less Heat ( degrees Celsius) How it works depends on power, pressure of blades, tissue tension
29
Energy Devices Ligasure (tissue response generator)
Bipolar technology at heart but lower voltage/higher current Changes the nature of vessel walls (collagen and elastin within the tissue melt then reform creating seal) Vessels up to 7 mm Very little lateral thermal spread Not as versatile for dissection
