This video shows what the inside of a dog looks like after a 'traditional spay' compared to a laparoscopic ovariectomy. The differences are profound - as are the ...
@levittownvet Yes its a single port 12mm trocar using a biovision operating
laparoscope: it has a 6mm channel through which the long (45cm) instruments
pass..I use a Powerblade to grasp/cauterize/cut. I wish the ligasure had a
45cm instrument but they don't! It won't fit down the length of the scope
:( ...and as you pointed out they're still very expensive anyways!! I'm
very happy with this Biovision system.
This is a great video and I'd love to use it to educate my clients but the
music is awful. Please post this video again without any music, I'd be so
grateful and I'm sure more vets would link to it across the world. cheers.
nice job. looks like you're working via a single port. what kind of
camera/scope setup are you using? which cautery unit are you using? i'm
looking at the Ligasure unit -but they're still VERY expensive!
With the amount of blood, do vets use installed drains as we human surgeons
do? Or is there an issue with your patients chewing and potentially doing
more damage with the drain?
