Renorrhaphy and specimen removal F. Porpiglia

Step 5: Renorrhaphy and specimen removal

• Sliding clip renorrhaphy is performed in order to ensure hemostasis.
• The 3mm endoscopic camera is inserted through one of the mini-laparoscopic trocars (3.9mm diameter).
• The 12mm camera trocar is used for instrument insertion such as the insertion of clip applicators and needles. The suturing is performed by inserting one instrument through a 3mm trocar and another through a 12mm.
• The specimen is retrieved after placing it in an endoscopic bag.
• The final cosmetic outcome is excellent due to the very limited scar formation.
