Surgical videos in NOTES

This video demonstrates a number of different NOTES techniques for performing sigmoidectomy in a porcine model. The principal trans-gastric approach is combined with a trans-vaginal, trans-rectal and laparoscopic approach in 3 different animals. Different methods of vascular dissection and colonic ...

In this video, a technique for the creation and closure of a gastrostomy to facilitate transgastric peritoneoscopy is demonstrated. It includes discussion of all the key steps of the procedure.

This video shows the formatting of gastric sleeve surgery via a hybrid NOTES technique in a porcine model. A transvaginal approach is used along with one single transabdominal trocar with additional retraction aided by both an intraluminal gastroscope and an intragastric magnet (anchored by a ...

This video demonstrates the stepwise technique for performing a one trocar sleeve gastrectomy in a porcine model. The procedure is achieved through the air-seal device (which functions as a single trocar and insufflation system at the same time) and with the aid of different length instruments ...

This video shows the technique of a NOTES hybrid sleeve gastrectomy performed live during the NOTES course. The intra-abdominal access is made via a transvaginal approach (double channel KARL STORZ endoscope and one grasper) combined with one abdominal trocar. The main steps of the procedure are ...

This video displays the creation and closure of a gastrotomy for any transgastric approach step by step. It also illustrates a clever way to maintain the pneumogastrium. This video details the main obstacles and achievements so far in determining the safety and efficacy of both gastric access and ...

This video demonstrates the transvaginal approach to the retroperitoneal space.
A posterior colpotomy is carried out with the needle-knife. The retroperitoneal space is entered digitally enlarging the posterior vaginal incision. In order to avoid peritoneal entering, precise identification of key ...

This video shows how to perform nephrectomy in the porcine model with a novel transvaginal retroperitoneal NOTES technique.
Conceivably, nephrectomy performed through a natural orifice could enhance cosmesis and minimize postoperative recovery. The vagina has been considered a viable route for ...

This video fully demonstrates all the technical aspects of performing sentinel node biopsy in the sigmoid mesocolon by NOTES. A transgastric access to the peritoneum allows a flexible gastroscope observe the lymphatic mapping in real-time and then to perform excisional nodal biopsy while magnetic ...

Este vídeo muestra la primera colecistectomía totalmente NOTES a través de un abordaje transvaginal en una paciente de 30 años con colelitiasis sintomática. La intervención quirúrgica se realizó en el Hospital Universitario de Estrasburgo por un equipo multidisciplinario dirigido por el ...

This video shows the first totally NOTES cholecystectomy via a transvaginal approach in a 30-year-old woman with symptomatic cholelithiasis. The operation was performed by a multidisciplinary team, which included a gynecologist who performed and closed the colpotomy. The peritoneal cavity was ...

This video shows a stepwise approach for a NOTES transvaginal cholecystectomy. The advantages of the hybrid technique are approached.

This video shows live interviews with leading experts in NOTES during a hands-on NOTES masterclass held at the IRCAD's experimental laboratory last October 4, 2008.

This recording of a masterclass in NOTES held at the IRCAD (2nd International NOTES hands-On Course, October 12-13, 2007) demonstrates the salient steps of several NOTES operations performed simultaneously and includes the comments of a live audience and input from expert observers. The 'PEG' ...
