Special Considerations
The ability to perform laparoscopic surgery is limited by the presence of previous abdominal or pelvic surgery. Prior surgery may have led to scar formation, which prevents the safe passage of laparoscopic instuments into the abdomen and may prevent the abdominal wall from being effectively distended by the gas instillation.
