Many of the complications of conventional closed, or sharp, laparoscopy result from the use of insufflation needles and sharp trocars. These instruments are not essential elements of the technique as laparoscopy can be easily performed with a small umbilical incision, entering the abdomen under direct vision. This variation is called open laparoscopy.
