10.5 Small-Bowel Resection
Fig. 10.5.2a Small-bowel resection. Exposure and dissection. For best exposure, hold the segment to be resected against the abdomi­nal wall with instruments or retaining sutures. After dividing the mesentery in an avascular area, resect the intestinal segment using a linear stapler at an appropriate distance from the pathological process.

Fig. 10.5.3 Small-bowel resection. Side-to-side enteroenterostomy.
Place the resected segment in a sterile bag. If a functional end-to-end anastomosis is to be achieved with a stapler, place the two intestinal stumps side by side and hold them in place with retaining sutures placed on the antimesenteric side. Resect the antimesenteric tip of the staple closure with scissors to create antimesenteric openings for the jaws of the stapler (see insert). Insert the jaws into the two intestinal lumina opened by the corner resections. One application is sufficient if you are using a 60­mm stapler. When using a 30-mm stapler, two consecutive applications are required. Check the inner suture line for bleeding. Do not attempt to control bleeding by electrocautery; the rows of staple sutures will con­duct heat and might result in thermal necrosis. Use laparoscopic sutures to achieve hemostasis.

end anastomosis: triangular anastomosis. After open removal of the resected segment, oppose the two open in­testinal stumps with three everted retaining sutures. Place these sutures at the mesenteric attachment (6 o’clock), 10 o’clock, and 2 o’clock. Tightening the sutures pulls the stumps into the shape of a triangle. Evert
the edges of each leg of the triangle and close the defect with a linear sta­pler. Animal studies have shown that overlapping staple sutures have min­imal adverse effect on healing.

10.5 Small-Bowel Resection
Complications
Note the specific complications associated with establishing the pneumoperitoneum and placing the trocars. Few complications are to be expected if the surgeon’s stapling technique is precise. We refer here to experience with staplers acquired in open pro­cedures. In laparoscopic repair of pathological changes from Crohn’s dis­ease, the surgeon should avoid using staples since these may become focal points of renewed inflammation. No clinical data are yet available on the incidence of complications occurring with techniques other than staples. Successful results have only been demonstrated in animal studies to date.
Intraoperative Complications
Bleeding
Corrective action: Bleeding must be controlled completely. If this is not possible, immediate conversion to an open procedure is indicated.
Cyanotic Wound Edges
Corrective action: Cyanotic wound edges near the sutures must be resected. If difficulties occur, conversion to an open pro­cedure is indicated.
Immediate Postoperative Complications
Anastomotic Breakdown, Peritonitis
Corrective action: Conventional laparotomy.

Fig. 10.5.6 Palliative small-bowel bypass anastomosis. Bypass anastomoses may be used in the presence of inoperable patho­logic changes that obstruct the intestine and necessitate palliative meas­ures. The technique involved is a side-to-side anastomosis with the endo­GIA stapler. We recommend completing the anastomosis as follows: Close the introduction site through which the stapler was inserted perpendicu­lar to the axes of the two legs of the intestine lying side by side. This helps reduce influx and drainage problems. The operation is completed by carefully letting down the CO pneumoperitoneum. We recommend placing fascial or muscular sutures in the larger incision wounds (15-mm trocar) to minimize scarring and hernias.

10.6 Laparoscopic Ly sis of Adhesions

A. Pier , F . Götz
Goals and Methods
To lyse adhesions, or to abstain is often a dilemma facing the
surgeon especially in the patient with subacute or chronic, re-
current complaints after one or several abdominal operations that may have resulted in adhesion formation. The extent and shape of the adhesions detected must fully ac­count for the presenting clinical syndrome and the disruption of intestinal motility and bowel patency, while other disorders must be excluded as possible causes. The surgeon should exer­cise restraint if these three conditions are not met. Typical in­dications for laparoscopic lysis of adhesions include mechanical ileus due to adhesive bands; localized adhesions stenosing a
bowel loop; and at times vague, other times more definite, but always recurrent episodes of abdominal bloating and colicky pain, while symptoms of other organic and functional disorders have been excluded. There are several laparoscopic techniques for lysis of adhesions (see Table 10.6.1). We prefer bipolar elec- trocautery followed by sharp dissection. A “frozen abdomen” with extensive, firm cord-like, and flat adhesions is an indica­tion for open laparotomy through a large incision and methodi­cal lysis of adhesions and temporary exteriorization of the small bowel, as the various bowel loops are freed up.
Special Considerations
321
Indications
− Recurrent partial mechanical ileus of the small bowel (in­complete small bowel obstruction).
− Early postoperative mechanical ileus after an intraabdominal operation for any cause.
− Chronic recurrent abdominal distension and colicky pain that is resistant to nonoperative treatment following an ear­lier, of ten remote laparotomy.
Contraindications
Acute and complete mechanical ileus with advanced dilatation of the intestinal loops following an intraabdominal operation: Treat by conventional laparotomy. Note: Laparoscopy is contraindicated in the presence of severely enlarged and distended intestinal loops with thinning of the in­testinal wall.
Surgical Risks and Informing the Patient
Laparoscopic lysis of adhesions requires a high level of surgical
expertise. Often the surgeon is forced to convert to an open pro­cedure. At present, reliable morbidity and mortality data are not available. Candid preoperative discussion with the patient before lysis of adhesions is more important than before any other laparoscopic
procedure. The suffering as perceived by the patient is severe,
and his or her expectations are high. Patients must understand that they are consenting to a difficult operation that cannot guarantee relief of symptoms, and that laparotomy may become
necessary and that intraoperative conversion to laparotomy
does not represent a complication.
Table 10.6.1 Different lysis techniques.
1. Aquadissection or hydrodissection (see Figs. 10.6.6 and 10.6.7).
2. Blunt dissection.
3. Lysis of avascular adhesions using internal ligature.
4. Lysis of avascular adhesions using bipolar electrocautery (see Figs. 10.6.8−10.6.10).
5. Lysis of avascular adhesions with Roeder loop and knot (see Fig. 10.6.12).
6. Stapling technique (see Fig. 10.6.11).
7. Clip technique (see Fig. 10.6.13).
Generally it is not possible to perform the steps typically in­volved in establishing the pneumoperitoneum. Often you will have to insert the Veress needle repeatedly before gaining access to the free peritoneal cavity. See Figs. 10.6.3−10.6.5,for the specific technique of establishing the pneumoperitoneum.
There is a simple technique for locating an adhesion-free site for placing the laparoscope using a Veress needle and a 15-cm in­jection needle. After making a stab wound with a scalpel, insert the Veress needle or the injection cannula into the area as­sumed to be free of adhesions. If the usual safety tests are posi­tive, conduct an additional 360-degree rotation test of the needle to ensure that no adhesions are present. Next establish the pneumoperitoneum at an insufflation rate of 1 l/min. Once this is done, insert the laparoscope trocar directly through the abdominal wall (not according to Semm’s Z technique). Open trocar placement by the “Hassan” technique is an alternative.
Anesthesia
General anesthesia.
Special Preparations
Prior to elective laparoscopic lysis of adhesions, the patient should thoroughly empty the bowels. The presence of acute me-
chanical ileus is an exception to this rule. Further preparations
include:
− Nasogastric tube.
− Indwelling urinary catheter.
− Preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis with 2 g of cefotam dihy­drochloride and 0.5 mg of metronidazole prior to making the skin incision.
Special Considerations
In a patient who has undergone several previous operations, es-
tablishing a pneumoperitoneum and performing subsequent la­paroscopy may be impossible if adhesions prevent the surgeon from gaining access to the peritoneal cavity. In about 8% of
cases, lysis of abdominal adhesions injures the intestines or re­sults in laparoscopically uncontrollable bleeding. Immediate
conversion to open laparotomy is indicated in such cases. Establishing the pneumoperitoneum with a Veress needle can produce complications in patients who have undergone pre-
vious operations. Intestinal loops adherent to the anterior
abdominal wall are easily injured.

Step-by-Step Procedure
I Technical preparations
1. Adjust the electrocautery unit to a medium setting.
2. Connect the aspirator/irrigator set.
3. Start the recording unit.
II Establishing the pneumoperitoneum
1. Select pressure plateau according to patient’s size, age, and weight (6−8 mm Hg for children; 10−14 mm Hg for adults).
2. Connect all equipment required for operation.
3. Make a periumbilical skin incision (approx. 1 cm).
4. Insert the Verress needle.
5. Perform safety tests: rotation, injection, aspiration, suction, and manometer tests.
6. Perform insufflation procedure.
Caution: insufflate infants at 1 l/min maximum.
III Various techniques for inserting the laparoscope/camera trocar
Method A: Percutaneously with Veress needle.
1. Find an unscarred area of the abdomen.
2. Insert the Veress needle percutaneously through a small inci­sion in the skin.
3. Perform safety tests: rotation, injection, aspiration, suction, and manometer tests.
4. Insert trocar with tapered blunt-tip stylet, after pneumoperi­toneum has been initiated.
Method B: Mini-laparotomy.
1. Enter the abdominal cavity through a mini-laparotomy in an unscarred area of the abdomen.
2. Advance the trocar into the abdominal cavity without the sty-
let.
3. Place a pursestring suture to seal the abdomen against CO
loss.
Method C: Special trocar.
1. Enter the abdominal cavity through a mini-laparotomy and
place a pursestring suture.
2. Advance the special trocar with a blunt stylet into the abdomi-
nal cavity.
3. Secure the trocar with holding sutures.
Method D: Semm’s technique (Figs. 10.6.3−10.6.5).
1. Periumbilical incision and dissection down to the peritoneum.
2. Advance a blunt trocar to the peritoneum. Note: Do not use a stylet.
3. Advance the laparoscope into the trocar to 1 cm above the per­itoneum.
4. Observe the reflection of the light. A bright light reflection indi­cates adhesions; a loss of light intensity indicates an open cav­ity free of adhesions.
5. Open the peritoneum with the tip of the stylet if an open cavity is found.
6. Insert the laparoscope and inspect the insertion site.
7. “Bluntly” advance the laparoscope/camera trocar.
IV Lysis of adhesions
Sharp dissection using a Roeder loop and knot applicator (see Fig. 10.6.12).
1. Transect the adhesion close to the parietal peritoneum.
2. Place the Roeder loop around the adhesion.
3. Grasp and elevate the transected adhesion.
4. Tighten the sliding Roeder knot with a grasper to close the loop loosely around the adhesion.
5. Move the ligature loop to the base of the transected adhesion and tighten it completely to ligate the base.
6. Transect the excess adhesion above the ligature and remove it.
Lysis of adhesions using sutures.
1. Place 5.5-mm and 10.5-mm instrument trocars under laparo­scopic visualization.
2. Expose the adhesion.
3. Insert an internal ligature (polyglycolic acid 0; metric 3.5) through a 10.5-mm instrument trocar with the Roeder knot ap­plicator. Loop the ligature around the adhesion and pull it back out through the same trocar.
4. Tie an extracorporeal knot.
5. Advance the extracorporeal knot and ligature to the base of the adhesion.
6. Cut the suture material and remove the loose end.
7. Introduce a second ligature close to the abdominal wall.
8. Cut the suture material and remove the loose end.
9. Transect and remove the adhesion.
Lysis of adhesions using a stapler (see Fig. 10.6.11).
1. Select the stapler according to the thickness of the tissue.
2. Introduce the stapler.
3. Place the jaws around the structure to be stapled so that the
2
tissue is between the markings.
4. Fire the stapler once to apply staples on both sides of the trans­ected adhesion.
Lysis of adhesions using a clip applicator (see Fig. 10.6.13).
1. Expose the vascularized adhesion.
2. Apply clips close to the abdominal wall and close to the in­testine.
3. The jaws of the clip applier must completely surround the ad­hesion.
4. Transect the adhesion between the clips with scissors.
Lysis of adhesions using bipolar electrocautery (see Figs. 10.6.8−
10.6.10).
1. Introduce a 5.5-mm trocar for the electrocautery instrument.
2. Expose the adhesion.
3. Coagulate tissue close to the abdominal wall with bipolar elec­trocautery. Caution: Maintain a distance of at least 1 cm between electro­cautery and the intestine.
4. Transect the adhesion in the coagulated area.

10.6 Laparoscopic Lysis of Adhesions
Operative Technique
Fig. 10.6.3 Lysis of adhesions. Locating a trocar insertion site free of ad-
hesions. Slowly advance the trumpet-valve laparoscope/camera trocar with tapered stylet down to the peritoneum before connecting the insufflator. Next remove the stylet and insert the laparoscope. Advance the laparo­scope with the attached fiberoptic line to 1 cm above the peritoneum. Ro­tate the trocar with the laparoscope on the peritoneum (insert) to locate a cavity that is free of adhesions. If the light falls on adhesions, it will be re­flected. Cavities without adhesions appear darker because there is more light diffusion.
Fig. 10.6.4 Lysis of adhesions. Opening the peritoneum.
Where the lack of reflected light indicates a cavity free of adhesions, care­fully open the peritoneum with the tip of the tapered stylet. Hold your fin- ger against the tube of the trocar to prevent uncontrolled penetration.
Trocar Placement

Fig. 10.6.5 Lysis of adhesions. “Bluntly” advancing the laparoscope/
camera trocar. Remove the stylet and inspect the peritoneal incision (about the size of a pea; see insert). If the cavity is indeed free of adhesions, advance the tip of
the trocar through the existing peritoneal incision. Keep the laparoscope
about 1 cm behind the tip of the trocar so you can verify the correct posi-
tion of the trocar on the monitor. When the trocar is fully inserted, ad-
vance the laparoscope to its final position.
Fig. 10.6.7 Lysis of adhesions. Sharp dissection of adherent intestinal loops from the parietal peritoneum.
After injecting the saline solution, incise the peritoneal tissue with
straight scissors. This allows the saline to escape and leaves a preformed
cavity between the two tissue surfaces, allowing the surgeon to dissect
along the interface. We recommend dissecting with a swab and scissors. If
a perforation occurs, suture it laparoscopically or by conventional method. Finally, place a drain and initiate prophylactic antibiotic treat­ment.
Fig. 10.6.6 Lysis of adhesions. Hydrodissection.
You may use this technique if laparoscopic exploration reveals intestinal­loops adhering to the abdominal wall and the tissue interface is not readily discernible. Insert a sharp cannula (insert shows cross section) and inject about 10−20 ml of saline solution into what appears to be the inter­face between the peritoneum and the serosa. The pressure of the injected fluid will separate the individual layers of tissue at the line of least re­sistance within a safe plane.

10.6 Laparoscopic Lysis of Adhesions
Fig. 10.6.8 Lysis of adhesions. Bipolar electrocautery.
The following figures illustrate various techniques for the lysis of adhe­sions. To reduce the danger of injury to the intestine, remain close to the
parietal peritoneum when dissecting.
Adhesions between the greater omentum and anterior abdominal wall can be coagulated close to the parietal peritoneum. Note that with any coagulation technique the heat will cause the tissue to shrink. To avoid damaging the intestine, maintain a distance of at least 1 cm between the electrocautery and the intestinal loop. Use bipolar electrocautery in lysis of adhesions as well. Due to its mode of action, monopolar electrocautery can generate current leakage that may result in a remote cautery effect with delayed intestinal necrosis.
Fig. 10.6.9 Lysis of adhesions. Sharp dissection. Use transillumination to locate poorly vascularized areas in omental adhe­sions. These can be sharply dissected close to the parietal peritoneum without having to be coagulated first. In case of doubt, coagulate peri­toneal vessels branching into the adhesion with bipolar elecrocautery. Ob­serve safety precautions (see Fig. 10.6.8).
Fig. 10.6.10 Lysis of adhesions. Coagulating adhesions close to the
abdominal wall.
Bipolar electrocautery is sufficient for lysis of small omental adhesions.
The heat of coagulation is sufficient to liquify the fatty tissue and elimi-
nates the need for sharp dissection with scissors.
Fig. 10.6.11 Lysis of adhesions. Stapler technique. A stapler can be used to transect vascularized omental adhesions. Place the jaws around the adhesion so that the tissue is between the markings. Use a measuring device to determine the proper size if needed. The sta­pler simultaneously closes the adhesion on both sides of the transection with a central blade.
Complications
327
Fig. 10.6.12 Lysis of adhesions. Roeder loop and knot ligature.
After sharply transecting the vascularized adhesion, place a Roeder loop and knot close to the base with a Roeder knot applicator. Using an adapta-
tion of the appendectomy technique, grip and elevate the tissue stump to be ligated with graspers to ensure correct placement of the Roeder knot. If the structure is vascularized, ligate it in continuity with an internal liga-
ture looped around it and tie an extracorporeal knot down to the struc-
ture. Then transect it.
Complications
Intraoperative Complications
Perforation of the Colon or Small Intestine
(Fig. 10.6.14). Injuries to the hollow organs from placing the Veress needle
occur relatively frequently during lysis of adhesions.
Perforation of the Small Intestine when Advancing the Laparoscope
(Fig. 10.6.15).
Injuries to the Serosa
Dissection of fused intestinal loops often unavoidably results in injuries to the serosa. Corrective action: Seal these injuries with fibrin glue. Injuries to the serosa and muscular coat. Corrective action: Place interrupted seromuscular sutures.
Immediate Postoperative Complications
Paralytic Ileus
A postoperative paralytic ileus can occur for three to five days. If
the condition persists, mechanical ileus and peritonitis must be
excluded.
Peritonitis
Corrective action: Conventional surgical treatment with la­parotomy.
Fig. 10.6.13 Lysis of adhesions. Transecting an adhesion between two surgical clips. One can ligate fine adhesions with metal or absorbable surgical clips and then sharply transect between them. To avoid clip loosening and sub­sequent bleeding, do not use metal clips if the adhesoin has a diameter larger than 3.5 mm or smaller than 1 mm (see also Fig. 4.1.71).
Fig. 10.6.14 Lysis of adhesions. Complication: Perforation of an adherent instestinal loop with the Veress needle.
As the illustration shows, an open cavity free of adhesions was initially found in a patient with suspected intraabdominal adhesions. However, the surgeon has advanced the Veress needle too far and penetrated the intestinal wall. Prevention: Performing the proper safety test (aspiration test, “slurp” test, and rotation test) helps the surgeon recognize this complication early and avoid gas insufflation. Corrective action: If the perforation site is only as wide as the Veress needle, simply repair the lesion with fibrin glue and place a drain. Larger injuries must be sutured. Note: The manometer test is positive in this complication.
