| [ Summary ] | Among the many problems associated with laparoscopic surgery, complications associated with trocar insertion, and troubles with intraoperative hemostasis are common in various laparoscopic procedures, and frequently result in severe morbidity. Injuries to intraabdominal organs and major blood vessels through establishment of pneumoperitoneum, or insertion of the trocar are rare, but when they occur, many are fatal. Many types of trouble with various instruments used for laparoscopic hemostasis, are reported in the literature. In this paper, we described their incidence, diagnosis, and prevention. | |
