⏱️ Efficiency in the Theatre: LAPTAP vs. ULTAP in Colorectal Surgery

Is the laparoscopic-guided technique for a TAP block (LAPTAP) a viable alternative to the traditional ultrasound-guided method (ULTAP)? Our latest research, conducted at Danderyd Hospital in Sweden, provides some compelling evidence.

In this randomised, observer-blind controlled trial, we compared both techniques in 175 patients undergoing minimally invasive colorectal surgery.

The Key Findings:

Significant Time Savings: The LAPTAP procedure was, on average, 6 minutes faster than the ultrasound method (2 mins vs 8 mins).

Reduced Anaesthesia Duration: Total time under anaesthesia was a median of 27 minutes shorter in the LAPTAP group.

Comparable Pain Relief: VAS pain scores were similar across both groups, proving LAPTAP to be a feasible and highly efficient approach.

In conclusion, LAPTAP provides comparable postoperative pain relief whilst significantly reducing precious time spent under anaesthesia.

Advancing techniques in diastasis recti repair

Is the Endoscopic Onlay Repair (ENDOR) approach the next standard for treating diastasis recti and associated ventral hernias?

A new meta-analysis recently published in Surgical Endoscopy evaluates the safety and short-term outcomes of this technique. Analysing data from 480 patients, the study highlights a low recurrence rate of just 2% and minimal intraoperative complications, suggesting that ENDOR is both a safe and effective minimally invasive method for selected patients.
