Complete Splenic Feature Mobilisation

Synopsis: This DVD demonstrates the technique of complete splenic flexure mobilisation. The laparoscopic approach is rapidly becoming the standard procedure and there is an increasing demand for surgeons who are skilled in this area. Laparoscopic colorectal surgery has increased exponentially in the UK over the last 5 years and has benefits to both the patient and the institution. When combined with an enhanced recovery programme, significant reduction in length of stay can be achieved, coupled with an early return to normal activity for the patient. The DVD sets out a safe and reproducible technique and is meant as a useful adjunct to "hands-on" training, allowing the surgeon to review the procedure in his or her own time.
