✦ Synopsis


One of the technical difficulties during laparoscopic and laparoscopic-assisted resection of the right, transverse, and left colon is the mobilization of the splenic and hepatic flexures. We present a simple technique of colonoscopic traction of the splenic or hepatic flexure. This technique enables good exposure and facilitates dissection while laparoscopic mobilization of these segments of the colon is performed.
