          Abstract

          La cirugía laparoscópica ha tenido un gran impacto en la cirugía urológica actual. Objetivo: Evaluar la experiencia en nefrectomía laparoscópica en niños en 2 Centros asistenciales privados de 2 ciudades del país. Pacientes y método: Se revisan los casos de niños sometidos a nefrectomía laparoscópica entre noviembre de 1992 y febrero del 2001. En todos se utilizó un abordaje transperitoneal, con 3 trócares de trabajo. Se evaluaron parámetros intra y postoperatorios. Resultados: Se efectuaron 18 nefrectomías laparoscópicas, 13 niñas y 5 varones, edad promedio de 7,9 años (8 meses a 15 años). Los procedimientos realizados fueron; 14 nefrectomías simples, 3 nefroureterectomías y una heminefrectomía. El tiempo quirúrgico promedio fue de 91,9 minutos (25-180 min). El tiempo de estadía hospitalaria tuvo un promedio de 52,4 horas (20 a 72 horas). El sangrado promedio fue de 87,7 ml (0 a 1 000 ml). Sólo un caso requirió conversión a cirugía abierta. En la serie no hubo complicaciones postoperatorias ni mortalidad. Conclusiones: Consideramos que la laparoscopía es la vía de abordaje de elección para la nefrectomía del niño. La nefrectomía laparoscópica tiene todas las ventajas que ofrece la cirugía mínimamente invasiva, el aspecto cosmético, el escaso dolor postoperatorio y la rápida reintegración a la vida normal, sumando el hecho que en el caso de los niños tiene especial significado una corta hospitalización, por las repercusiones psicológicas y sociales tanto para el niño como su familia

          Introduction: Laparoscopic surgery has been of great benefit in children, especially laparoscopic nephrectomy. Objective: To report our experience in this technique in children. Material and methods: A review of all laparoscopic nephrectomies carried out in children between November 1992 and February 2001, a tranperitoneal procedure was used in all cases. Results: The procedure was carried out in 18 children, 13 girls and 5 boys with an average age of 7.9 years (range 8 months-15 years). Surgery was a total nephrectomy in 14, total nephroureterectomy in 3 and a heminephrectomy in 1. The average operative time was 91.9 minutes (range 25-180) and hospital stay 52.4 hours (range 20-72). The average intraoperative bleeding was 87.7ml (range 0-1 000). Only in 1 case open surgery was required due to incontrollable bleeding. There were no postoperative complications and no mortality. Conclusions: We conclude that laparoscopic nephrectomy should be considered as the first line surgical treatment in children requiring a nephrectomy for benign diseases. It has all the advantages of laproscopic surgery, comestical aspects, less postoperative pain and a faster revovery. All these factors have a large impact on the social and psychological aspects of a sick child and his family.

          Laparoscopic nephrectomy: initial case report.

          A tumor-bearing right kidney was completely excised from an 85-year-old woman using a laparoscopic approach. A newly devised method for intra-abdominal organ entrapment and a recently developed laparoscopic tissue morcellator made it possible to deliver the 190 gm. kidney through an 11 mm. incision.

              Two-step orchiopexy with pelviscopic clip ligation of the spermatic vessels.

              D Bloom (1991)
              Ten boys with nonpalpable testes located in the peritoneal cavity underwent celiopelviscopy and clip ligation of the spermatic vessels with the intent of augmenting vasal collateral blood flow. After intervals in excess of 6 months, 7 patients underwent vas-based orchiopexy following division of the occluded spermatic vessels. Six boys had good results as judged by size of the relocated testes. In 1 boy the testis atrophied. He had undergone previous inguinal-only exploration before referral to us for celiopelviscopy and at stage 2 orchiopexy a silk suture was found on the vas deferens.
