Exam 3: Lecture 26 - Principles of Minimally Invasive surgery Flashcards
what is the definition of endoscopy
use of instrument to visualize interior of organ or body cavity that cannot be examined without surgery
what is the definition of flexible endoscopy
endoscope that bents to look and/or move around corners
what are the components of flexible endoscopes
handle, insertion tube, umbilical cord, biopsy channel
what is the handle of flexible endoscope
where the scope held by operator
what is the insertion tube
part inserted into patient
what is the umbilical cord
part attaches scope to light source and video processor

umbilical cord
what is B
handle
what is C
insertion tube
what is rigid endoscopy
plastic or metal scope that cant bend
what is the lens
at the scope tip, allows looking at various angles
what is the obturator
device placed through hollow endoscope to facilitate insertion of scope into organ
what is a trocar
obturator with sharp point to facilitate penetration through tissue
what is a portal
the insertion point through the skin of rigid endoscopy
what are portals defined as
scope inserted through scope or camera portal, power and hand tools inserted through instrument portal
what are cannulas
metal tubes that maintain portals and protect instruments
what is triangulation
visualization of instruments through scope perform biopsies or therapeutic procedures within a body cavity

endoscopy of peritoneal cavity
why do we do interventional laparoscopy
to perform minimally invasive surgery (gastropexy or jejunostomy tube placement)
what is a thoracoscopy
endoscopy of pleural cavity
what is arthroscopy
endoscopy of joint
T/F: Arthroscopes are always used through cannulas
true!
what is instrumenting of arthroscopy
insertion of endoscope, arthroscope, or other instrument into joint
what is triangulation during arthroscopy
visualization of instruments through scope to perform biopsies or therapeutic procedures in joint
what are the steps of arthroscopy
- scope inserted through scope or camera portal
- power and instruments inserted through instrument portal
- fluid flows into joint (inflow or ingress)
- fluid flows out of the joint (outflow or egress)
- second-look arthroscopy
what is second-look arthroscopy
repeat arthroscopy of joint previously scoped
when is endoscopy valuable
only when it is successful by eliminating need for more invasive surgery
when is endoscopy not useful
- if tissues samples inadequate for dx
- unacceptable trauma occurs during endoscopic removal of FB
- mucosal surfaces cant be adequately examined
when should you refer patients for endoscopy
if not sufficiently trained or not performing procedure often enough to maintain expertise
when should we do a gastroduodenoscopy most commonly
gastric and intestinal biopsy/cytology for diagnosis of infiltrative and lymphatic disorders
when else can we do gastroduodenoscopy
- ID of mass, ulceration, erosion, lymphangiectasia, or physaloptera infestation
- ID and removal of FB
- placement of G-tube
- location of lesions
- removal of gastric polyps with clinical signs
when do we do esophagoscopy
- ID/removal of FB
- diagnosis and dilation of strictures
- aid in stent placement
- diagnosis of esophagitis
- biopsy of tumors
when do we do proctoscopy and colonoileoscopy
- biopsy (colon, rectum, ileum, or cecum)
- ID of occult whipworm infestation
- diagnosis/removal of polyps
- diagnosis of cecocolic intussusception
when do we do laryngoscopy
- ID of laryngeal paralysis
- ID of elongated soft palate and/or everted laryngeal saccules
- location and removal of FB
- biopsy mass or other infiltrative lesions
when do we do a cystoscopy
- diagnosis of ectopic ureters
- biopsy proliferative lesions in urethra and bladder
- injection of collagen in urethra for incontinence
when do we do a thoracoscopy
- ID/biopsy of masses or other infiltrative lesions
- placing chest tubes in animals with pyothorax
- determine if thoracotomy is indicated
- performance of minimally invasive surgery
when do we do a bronchoscopy
- ID of lesions
- bronchoalveolar lavage for cytology/culture
- ID/removal of FB
- ID of lung lobe torsion
- biopsy of mucosa
- placement of stents/eval of stents previously placed
when do we do rhinoscopy
- ID/removal of foreign objects
- biopsy/cytology of mass lesions and mucosa for infiltrative disorders
- ID/biopsy of aspergillomas
- ID of course of epistaxis or chronic nasal discharge
when do we do laparoscopy
- exam and biopsy of abdominal viscera
- determine if celiotomy is indicated
- minimally invasive interventional surgery
what are the advantages of flexible endoscopes
greater access to more sites in viscous organs
what are the advantages of rigid endoscopes
less expensive than flexible scopes, used in peritoneal, pleural, and joint spaces, usually more durable, easier to learn, capable of larger biopsies, excellent for removal of FB and protecting mucosa
what are the disadvantages of flexible endoscopes
more expensive than rigid scopes, easier to damage/requires training to assemble and clean, and requires substantial training to use properly
what are the disadvantages of rigid endoscope
can only use in certain viscous organs (esophagus, descending colon, larynx, nose, and trachea), cant use around hard turns
what size channels do we use the top forceps for
2.8-mm channel
what size channels do we use the bottom forceps for
for 2.2-mm channels
what is the name of the top forceps
shark tooth forceps
what is the name of the middle forceps
rat’s tooth forceps
what is the name of the bottom forceps
coin retrieval forceps
what are the top retrieval forceps called and why do they work well
four-wire basket
works well due to flexible wires
what are the bottom retrieval forceps called and why are they not as good as the top
it is also a four-wire basket
they do not open as widely and the wires are firm
what are the top forceps called
human uterine biopsy forceps, clamshell, or double-spoon forceps
what are the bottom forceps called and used for
punch biopsy forceps
smaller upper punch fits into lower cup with shearing scissor-like cut
what should we NEVER do with endoscopes
never introduce insertion tube into the mouth of an unanesthetized animal (use a mouth gag)
NEVER subject a flexible scope to heat especially autoclaving
what are the 4 basic principles we can apply to most endoscopic procedures
- advance scope only if you an see where you are going
- if you cannot see what is happening back the scope out rather than advancing or insufflate a little air
- aim scope toward center of lumen unless looking at a specific lesion
- do NOT insert endoscope into patient any harder than you would want a physician to insert it into you
what are advantages of endoscopic FB removal
- faster than sx
- less stressful to patient
- reduce tissue trauma, morbidity, and recovery time
- reduced cost to client
what are disadvantages of endoscopic FB removal
- cannot removal all objects
- can hurt patient with careless technique
- requires assortment of expensive FB retrieval devices
what are the 2 most commonly performed arthroscopically procedures

why is arthroscopy superior to rads in diagnosis of joint disease
- allows direct visualization of cartilage and soft tissue structures
- provides magnification
- enables biopsy of virtually all structures within joint
