[The laparoscopic procedures on abdomen with adhesions].
The scar abdomen is more and more seldom a contraindication of the laparoscopic approach. According to Rohr it is classified in scar abdomen after Mac Burney, suprapubic or supraumbilical approach and of the polyoperated patients. Our trial consists in 452 patients with laparoscopic operations consecutive open abdominal surgery (out of the 3900 patients undergoing celioscopic procedures between 1995-2001). The laparoscopic procedure was performed distant to the previous operation in 95.1%, on a neighboring organ to that initially conventionally operated in 4.1% or on the same organ in 3 patients (0.8%). We lead no preoperative fatalities, but the conversational rate was 12% (54 patients), due to the high-risk dissection or to the unsolvable bleedings by laparoscopic means (2 cases). The operative accidents consisted in visceral injuries soloed by laparotomy. Postoperatively we registered 5 port site seronas, 1 deep vein thrombosis and 1 pneumonia. The evolution and the mean hospitalization was the same for the scar abdomen patients with the operative procedure accomplished laparoscopically as for non previously operated patients. The data support the feasibility of the laparoscopic procedures on scar abdomen, using the "open laparoscopy" with a reasonably increased conversational rate.
