Using Veress Needle for Laparoscopy in Females with Prior Cesarean Section: Considerations and Safety Implications
Main Article Content
Abstract
Laparoscopic surgery has brought about a significant transformation in modern surgical practices, offering numerous advantages such as reduced postoperative discomfort and quicker recovery times. However, the initial step of accessing the abdominal cavity presents inherent challenges, especially in patients with previous cesarean sections, whose abdominal anatomy may be altered by adhesions or scar tissue. Among the techniques used to establish pneumoperitoneum, the Veress needle method is commonly employed, yet its safety in females with prior cesarean sections requires careful consideration. This paper provides a thorough examination of safety outcomes, strategies for managing complications, and the long-term implications of Veress needle insertion in females with prior cesarean sections undergoing laparoscopic surgery. It delves into the evolution of laparoscopic surgery, emphasizing the need for a nuanced understanding of the challenges posed by altered abdominal anatomy. Drawing from diverse literature, including peer-reviewed articles and clinical studies, the paper explores the intricacies of preoperative assessment, highlighting the importance of comprehensive patient evaluation to identify potential risk factors and inform surgical planning. Furthermore, it investigates refinements in surgical techniques, examining novel approaches and safety measures proposed to mitigate the risks associated with Veress needle insertion in this specific patient population. From innovative methods for measuring the depth of the anterior abdominal wall to alternative entry sites and techniques, such as the open (Hasson) technique or left upper quadrant (Palmer's point) entry, the paper elucidates the multifaceted strategiesemployed to enhance safety and efficacy. Additionally, it addresses acute safety concerns and long-term complications, advocating for ongoing monitoring and follow- up care. Identifying research gaps, the paper calls for further investigation to refine safety protocols and improve patient outcomes, ultimately aiming to enhance patient well-being in this specific patient cohort.
