Die transanale endoskopische mikrochirurgische Behandlung von „low risk“ und „high risk“ Karzinomen der Rektumschleimhaut

1993

Transanal endoscopic microsurgery was performed in 78 patients with rectal carcinoma. Complications were observed in two patients (2.5%), no patient died after local excision. In case of local excised “low risk” T1-carcinoma and tumor free margins no recurrences were observed.

Endoscope-assisted microsurgery for cerebral aneurysms.

1999

A total of 66 patients with intracranial aneurysms were endoscopically assisted treated during a 3 years period. Among those were five individuals with giant aneurysms and 27 patients with aneurysms of the posterior circulation. The endoscope was used only for checking the anatomical structures surround the aneurysms in 16 cases. In 43 patients the aneurysm sac was also dissected under endoscopical con-trol. Even the clipping procedure was performed in seven cases exclusively under endoscopical obser-vation. Only one prematural rupture occurred intraoperatively during preparation of a basilar tip aneurysm. Postoperatively three individuals with aneurysms located in the posterior circulation…

Endoscopic microsurgical dissection of the esophagus. Results in an animal model.

1989

Blunt dissection of the esophagus is considered the least invasive technique in the treatment of either benign or malignant diseases of the esophagus. Its disadvantage is that it has to be carried out blindly. The results may be uncontrollable hemorrhage, unrecognized injuries to the trachea, and damage to the recurrent laryngeal nerve. In order to reduce the degree of invasiveness a new endoscopic microsurgical technique for the dissection of the esophagus has been developed and tried out in animals. This paper presents the operative technique. Our new endoscopic microsurgical technique obviates a thoracotomy, while direct endoscopic vision results in improved dissection. The magnified end…

A sequence of flaps and dissection exercises in the living model to improve the learning curve for perforator flap surgery.

2020

Abstract Introduction The training to learn how to perform perforator flaps requires practice on a living model to optimize dissection and to evaluate outcome. The purpose of this study was to describe a training model that optimizes the use of animals in order to perform the maximum number of exercises per animal. Material and methods The sequence has been planned and practiced by the first and last author, recorded perfected and implemented in a two-day surgical course. The sequence was then evaluated by the trainers and the trainees by means of a questionnaire. Results All students were able to complete the sequence of exercises before the end of the second day except two (8/10) who coul…

Experimental reimplantation utilizing microvascular anastomosis in animals.

1977

Summary The use of the operating microscope and special microsurgical instruments make it possible to achieve successful anastomosis of blood vessels of less than 1 mm in diameter. Microvascular surgery offers newer possibilities in the transplantation of dermisfat grafts, and has led to an unusually high degree of success in the reimplantation of tissues. This paper describes a technique for microvascular anastomosis in animal experiment, using as a model the reimplantation of a completely amputated rabbit ear. In 10 amputated rabbit ears, the central auricular artery with a diameter of 0.5 mm and the two marginal auricular veins with diameter of 0.5–1.0 mm were microsurgically anastomosed…

Training program for transanal endoscopic microsurgery.

1988

Televised endoscopy and the concept of the “assisted” endoscopic operation is of great help in teaching surgical endoscopic techniques. The use of training dummies provides a new method of training manual dexterity and surgical skills in special courses or in surgical skill laboratories. We have developed a training system for transanal endoscopic microsurgery. Operations with our technique were performed on 116 patients. Like other microsurgical techniques, our method requires a special introduction and intensive training. This paper presents our multistage, video-supported training course for teaching transanal endoscopic microsurgery. The one-day training session is divided into four ste…
