Stereoscopic augmented reality for laparoscopic surgery.

Kang X, Azizian M, Wilson E, Wu K, Martin AD, Kane TD, Peters CA, Cleary K, Shekhar R.Author information Sheikh Zayed Institute for Pediatric Surgical Innovation, Children's National Medical Center, 111 Michigan Avenue NW, Washington, DC, 20010, USA, xkang@cnmc.org.AbstractBACKGROUND: Conventional laparoscopes provide a flat representation of the three-dimensional (3D) operating field and are incapable of visualizing internal structures located beneath visible organ surfaces. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) images are difficult to fuse in real time with laparoscopic views due to the deformable nature of soft-tissue organs. Utilizing emerging camera technology, we have developed a real-time stereoscopic augmented-reality (AR) system for laparoscopic surgery by merging live laparoscopic ultrasound (LUS) with stereoscopic video. The system creates two new visual cues: (1) perception of true depth with improved understanding of 3D spatial relationships among anatomical structures, and (2) visualization of critical internal structures along with a more comprehensive visualization of the operating field.

Peritoneal dialysis catheter placement with peritoneoscopic technique and successful initiation of peritoneal dialysis in a patient with diastasis recti.

Abdelsalam MS, Althaf MM, Albaqumi MN, Alfurayh O, Korbi L, Haq NU.Author information Department of Medicine, Section of Nephrology, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; Department of Internal Medicine, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt.AbstractPreserved anatomical integrity of the anterior abdominal wall is considered important in the presurgical evaluation of a patient who is being considered for placement of a peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter. Diastasis recti abdominis (DRA) is the excessive widening or separation between the two bellies of the rectus abdominis muscle. The separation can occur anywhere along the linea alba and at times has been found to span the entire length from the xiphosternal angle to the pubic bone. Presence of DRA can pose a surgical challenge in the peritoneoscopic placement of peritoneal dialysis catheter. In this report, we discuss a case of successful placement of peritoneal dialysis catheter with peritoneoscope technique and successful initiation of peritoneal dialysis in a chronic kidney disease patient with DRA.

Mechanical evaluation of three access devices for laparoendoscopic single-site surgery.

Xie XF, Zhu JF, Song CL, Zhang DS, Zou QL.Author information Department of General Surgery, East Hospital, Tongji University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.AbstractBACKGROUND: Many access devices have been developed for laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) during recent years. However, investigations are needed to determine which port is most suitable for this relatively new technique. The aim of this study was to evaluate commonly used ports using mechanical approaches in a training simulator. Any port that required less force and shorter surgery times had superior maneuverability.
