RETROPERITONEOSCOPY ASSISTED LIVE DONOR NEPHRECTOMY
The Journal of Urology, 1997We investigated retroperitoneoscopy assisted nephrectomy in living kidney donors.Gasless surgery was performed with a 10 cm. upper abdominal pararectus skin incision and 2 trocars. The abdominal wall was lifted using special retractors and the kidney was removed via the pararectus incision.The operating time, blood loss, warm ischemic time and ...

Failure was guaranteed since the retroperitoneal approach did not provide sufficient space for orientation. Recently, a new method of retroperitoneoscopy has been described. Initially, the retroperitoneum is opened with the aid of a balloon which is inflated with about 1.51 of ...
