[Instruments for gasless laparoscopic surgery].
Specially designed instruments for laparoscopic surgery with a pneumoperitoneum are expensive and delicate, and surgeons are initially not familiar with their handling. Beside restrictions of the surgeon's intraabdominal range of motion they lead to a loss of tactile sensation. In gasless laparoscopic procedures not only special laparoscopic instruments, but the standard conventional instruments, used in open surgery, can also be employed with simple valveless trocars. Still using these instruments can put up some difficulties, because ergonomic factors were not considered in their development. With regard to the instrument's length, shape and joint-position we developed a special instrument-set under the ergonomic criteria of gasless laparoscopy.
