Minimally Invasive Surgery

Endoscopy, 2002
During the last 10 years, minimally invasive surgery has influenced the techniques used in every specialty of surgical medicine. This development has not only led to the replacement of conventional procedures with minimally invasive ones, but has also stimulated surgeons to reevaluate conventional approaches with regard to perioperative parameters such

Design of Nanocomposite Injectable Hydrogels for Minimally Invasive Surgery.

Accounts of Chemical Research, 2019
Biocompatible hydrogels are materials that hold great promise in medicine and biology since the porous structure, the ability to entrap a large amount of water, and the tunability of their mechanical and tissue adhesive properties make them suitable for ...

MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY

Annual Review of Medicine, 1995
▪ Abstract  With the widespread introduction of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in late 1989, the practice and expectations of general surgery were changed forever. The techniques of laparoscopy were not new—they had been adopted by gynecologists and orthopedic surgeons at least a decade before—but it was laparoscopic cholecystectomy that captured the ...

Less-Invasive Cardiac Surgery [PDF]

open access: possible, 2007
The history of cardiac surgery reflects a constant search by cardiac surgeons for safer and less-invasive ways to treat their patients. Since Dr. F. John Lewis’s pioneering operation in 1952, followed by Dr. C. Walton Lillehei’s first successful series of intracardiac defect repairs in the mid-1950s, cardiac surgery as a surgical subspecialty has ...

Minimally invasive surgery in urology

Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 1999
Traditionally, urologic surgeons are open minded and often pioneers in the struggle for reducing surgical trauma. In 1932 Stern and McCarthy designed the first operational resectoscope for transurethral prostatectomy. They established the base for what was later called the ‘endoscopic revolution’.
