Hand-Assist Laparoscopic Surgery for the Gynecologic Surgeon

BACKGROUND: Hand assist laparoscopy (HALS) is a minimally invasive technique which allows for the placement of the surgeon's non-dominant hand through a hand-port device while maintaining pneumoperitoneum. There is no standardization of this procedure and it is rarely used in gynecology. METHOD...

description BACKGROUND: Hand assist laparoscopy (HALS) is a minimally invasive technique which allows for the placement of the surgeon's non-dominant hand through a hand-port device while maintaining pneumoperitoneum. There is no standardization of this procedure and it is rarely used in gynecology. METHODS: The multidisciplinary team of authors, with experience in minimally invasive pelvic surgery, has developed a practical approach performing HALS over several years. Here we present our technique. CONCLUSIONS: There are several roles for HALS in the world of gynecology and pelvic surgery. Further experience will help improve upon a standard technique.
