'Essentials of Pediatric Endoscopic Surgery' approaches the implementation of endoscopic surgery by practising surgeons. The contributors are world renowned surgeons who have a vast experience and expertise in pediatric endoscopic surgery. Emphasis has been put on the decision making aspects, which have been divided under clear sections to highlight the important points in a concise manner. Pictorial operation room set-up and port placement sections help to optimize the ergonomics during procedures. Preoperative considerations along with the indications for surgery section offer better planning of procedures. The technical notes along with procedure variation sections give the readers the choice and information for opting for the possible modifications in procedures. The actual procedures are presented to the reader in high-quality photographs which offer a more accurate approach to the understanding of a procedure in a step-by-step manner. The incisive style makes this book a necessary part of every surgeon's library.
Since pediatric surgeons can and do perform nearly every major pediatric surgical procedure laparoscopically, and since many of the approaches have evolved some over the years—past the learning curve—into cost effective operations that rarely take extra time to perform, or in some cases save time, it is worthwhile reviewing our current practices. This book, then, serves as both an update of current practices and as a manual for how to approach the most common of the pediatric disorders using laparoscopic techniques. It covers the basics of anesthesia, instrumentation and ergonomics and then reviews many of the more commonly performed laparoscopic and thoracoscopic pediatric procedures, including a review of fetal work. While any book written about such a rapidly evolving technique may miss some of the very newest twists and modifications of technique, it is our hope that most of the contents will serve the readers as a reference for years to come as they care for children with common pediatric surgical problems.
This first publication on the rapidly expanding subject explains why it is so important, discussing general aspects of endoscopic surgery and the application of endoscopic surgery in diseases of the chest, abdomen, GI tract, liver and biliary tree, urogenital tract, in orthopaedics, in neurosurgery, and in oncology. It also covers diagnostic laparoscopy and the future of laparoscopy.
Esophageal anomalies and disorders in infancy and childhood include a wide spectrum of different diseases. These range from emergencies immediately after birth such as esophageal atresia (EA), necessitating an experienced team of neonatologists and pediatric surgeons, up to gastro-esophageal reflux disease in elder children, necessitating the pediatric gastroenterologist and visceral surgeon. In the last few years some fascinating pediatric surgical techniques have evolved, such as the thoracoscopic correction of EA or the FOKER technique for elongation in cases of long-gap, EA. Prof. Foker has developed this special traction technique and is the world's leading expert in long-gap EA.
