Abstract

PITA ARMENTEROS, Luis Miguel et al. Edad, aprendizaje, tiempo quirúrgico y complicaciones en la cirugía videolaparoscópica. Rev Cubana cir [online]. 1999, vol.38, n.3, pp. 140-147. ISSN 1561-2945.

Surgical time is not very significant risk factor in elective surgery. It is much less important when there is an adequate surgical management and anesthetic control. The videolaparoscopic method demands a greater anesthetic monitoring and produces minimun traumatism. However, reference is made to extremely elevated surgical times during training that limit surgical productivity and increase the cost of the operation and the number of complications particularly among major surgeons. This paper considers age, training, surgical time and complications in videolaparoscopic surgery. Prudence influences on the surgical time but reduces conversion and complications. To obtain the basic qualification in videolaparoscopic surgery, it is necessary to perform 40 or 50 operations
