    Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of the all-seeing needle for safe entry and creation of pneumoperitoneum in pediatric urologic laparoscopy. Patients and Methods: A total of 14 children underwent various transperitoneal urologic laparoscopic procedures. The all-seeing needle, which is 4.85F in diameter, was used for safe entry into the abdominal cavity at the site of the umblicus in all cases. The microoptic was integrated with the light system and connected via a zoom ocular enabling direct visualization of the layers between the skin and the peritoneal cavity. Once the intraperitoneal access was obtained, CO2 pneumoperitoneum was created from one port of the three-way connector attached to the proximal part of the needle. Then the laparoscopic trocars were placed under vision of the microoptical system. Results: Mean age of the children was 4.52.9 years. In all children, the all-seeing needle was safely introduced into the abdominal cavity under direct vision. Then, CO2 pneumoperitoneum was succesfully performed. The mean time for optical puncture was calculated as 1.1 +/- 0.8 minutes. No complication was encountered during the introduction of the needle, creation of the pneumoperitoneum, and placement of the trocars. Conclusions: The all-seeing needle appears to be beneficial in safe entry and for creating pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopic pediatric urology cases. It eliminates the disadvantages of the Veress needle, which is blunt insertion, and may possibly prevent complications.

    Current Minimal Invasive Surgery Treatment For Kidney Stones: Bezmialem Experience

    Objective: We aimed to present the outcomes of patients with symptomatic kidney stones treated with percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) or retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS). Methods: The medical records of patients with symptomatic renal calculi treated with PNL or RIRS between November 2010 and May 2015 were obtained. Demographic characteristics such as age; sex; BMI; stone size and location; and perioperative data including operation, fluoroscopy, and hospitalization time; and success and complication rates were assessed. Results: Standard (n:336), mini-PNL (n:51), ultramini-PNL (n:37) and microperc (n:47) were performed for 471 renal units. RIRS was the treatment method for 290 renal unites. In the PNL group, the mean patient age was 44.5 (1-83) years and BMI was 26.9 kg/m2. The mean stone size was 27.6 mm. In the RIRS group, the mean age and BMI were 47.1 (1-86) years and 25.1 kg/m2, respectively. The mean operation, fluoroscopy, and hospitalization times were 70.0 (20-240) min, 45.1 (17-610) s, and 2.4 (1-20) days, respectively, in the PNL group. On the other hand, the mean operation, fluoroscopy, and hospitalization times were 62.5 (40-180) min, 29.8 (0-96) s, and 26.4 (12-120) h, respectively, in the RIRS group. Whine stone free status was achieved in 88% in the PNL group; this rate was lower (80%) in the RIRS group. Conclusion: Both PNL and RIRS are efficient minimally invasive methods with low morbidity and high success rates for the treatment of symptomatic kidney stone disease.
