LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY FOR ADRENAL GLAND (left side)
Laparoscopic surgery for adrenal gland became the standard procedure for removal of adrenal tumors. When done in expert hands, even large tumors can be safely performed through this minimally invasive approach. It provides patients with less discomfort and equivalent oncologic results when compared to larger incisions required with traditional open surgeries.
In comparison to open adrenalectomy, the laparoscopic approach has been shown to result in less pain, significantly less blood loss, better cosmetic results, shorter hospital stay and early recovery.
In this procedure, Dr Fouad Khoury demostrates a laparoscopic left adrenalectomy of a large 7.5 cm tumor. As it is a non secreting tumor, the adrenal vein was dissected at the end of procedure after careful isolation and identification of surrounding structures.
L’Association Francaise d’Urologie (AFU) invite Dr Fouad EL-KHOURY comme étant un expert en chirurgie robotique et coelioscopique au Moyen Orient pour donner une conférence sur les techniques chirurgicales pour traitement du prolapsus par voie haute.
Prolapsus Genitourinaire
La pathologie du prolapsus génito-urinaire est un motif de consultation urologique de plus en plus fréquent en raison de l’allongement de l’espérance de vie des femmes et de leur demande d’une prise en charge efficace de cette pathologie anatomique et fonctionnelle invalidante.
Des rappels d’épidémiologie et de physiopathologie seront précisés en début de session, puis les techniques de traitement par voies vaginale ou abdominale seront décrites par des urologues francophones à partir de leurs expériences.
Dr Fouad Khoury discussing minimally invasive approach to repair pelvic organ prolapses such as cystocele and rectocele. The repair can be done either through a laparoscopic or robotic approach with a success rate higher than 90 percent when done in expert hands.
Robotic technology allows the surgeon to perform through the robot very precise and meticulous gestures with utmost accuracy; thus leading to excellent functional outcomes and very quick recovery as no painful incisions are made. Read More
