Complications in Laparoscopy-Assisted Gastrectomy: Multivariate Analysis of 300 Consecutive Cases
BACKGROUND: Complications during laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) are not significantly different from those of the open gastrectomy. However, additional risks related with abdominal access, pneumoperitoneum, and special electrosurgical instruments result in increased incidence of …

Laparoscopy and loop colostomy : a new approach to extra-peritoneal rectal injuries
… reviews and examines the safety and efficacy of laparoscopy and the formation of a diverting sigmoid loop colostomy through an abdominal wall trephine, in a limited number of carefully selected patients with isolated extra-peritoneal rectal injuries. The patient is thus spared a major laparotomy …

Comparing the Effects of Mental Workload Between Visual and Auditory Secondary Tasks During Laparoscopy
<p>The purpose of this study was to test Wickens’ Multiple Resource Theory (MRT) by comparing performance and subjective workload on a visual-spatial secondary task with an auditory-spatial analog when paired with visual-spatial laparoscopic primary tasks. Two primary tasks were performed with a …
