Surgical Clinics of North America, 2000
Laparoscopic splenectomy can be taught and performed safely. It presents less significant morbidity than does open surgery, and efficacy in the control of hematologic disease is comparable while offering the proven benefits of the minimally invasive approach. Laparoscopic splenectomy for selected hematologic disorders should replace open splenectomy as

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1996
Dramatic decreases in length of hospital stay and time to complete recovery with laparoscopic cholecystectomy have led to the development of more advanced laparoscopic procedures. The rationale, technique, and early results with laparoscopic splenectomy are described in this article. Laparoscopic splenectomy is a complex procedure with a real potential

Laparoscopic Versus Open Pediatric Splenectomy for Massive Splenomegaly
Surgical Innovation, 2011 Laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) has rapidly evolved into the technique of choice compared with open splenectomy (OS) because of the advantages of the minimally invasive approach. Splenomegaly increases the technical difficulties of LS.

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 1998
The laparoscopic technique for splenectomy has become the preferred method for splenectomy at many institutions over the last 10 years. The advantages of laparoscopic splenectomy include a shortened postoperative hospitalization, improved cosmesis, and less analgesic requirements.

Pediatric Annals, 1993
Splenectomy is easily amenable to laparoscopic technique. Compared with the open technique, its advantages include improved exposure, decreased pain, improved pulmonary function, shortened hospitalization, rapid return to unrestricted activities, and improved cosmetic appearance.

Experience with laparoscopic splenectomy
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2001The laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) often is adopted to treat children affected by hematologic diseases. Many of the pitfalls of LS are related to the 2 steps-dissection and extraction. Although various methods have been adopted, the conversion rate still is too high during the learning curve period.

Surgical Endoscopy, 1997
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of patients undergoing laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) at the University of California, San Francisco.The medical records of the initial 52 unselected patients undergoing LS were reviewed and compared to 28 concurrently treated open splenectomy patients (OS).Patients did not differ with regard to age,

Laparoscopic Splenectomy-A Review
Journal of Long-Term Effects of Medical Implants, 2004Laparoscopic splenectomy has become the standard approach in many institutions when splenectomy is indicated for benign hematologic disease and has gained acceptance in patients with malignant hematologic disease and splenomegaly. It is a technically difficult procedure and is associated with a steep learning curve, with operative times initially ...

Pediatric laparoscopic splenectomy
Surgical Endoscopy, 2000Lateral laparoscopic splenectomy in adults, first reported in 1991, was begun with children in 1993.The authors reviewed records of 59 patients 2 to 17 years old who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy by the lateral approach between 1994 and 1998 at four medical centers. Patients received prophylactic penicillin or vaccinations preoperatively.Of the 59

Laparoscopic Splenectomy and LigaSure
Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2005Laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) is a preferred choice, especially for hematologic diseases. We present the advantages of the use of LigaSure (energy-based equipment that works by applying a precise amount of bipolar energy and pressure to the tissue, achieving a permanent seal) for achieving a precise hemostasis, thus making the LS easier.
