Abstract
To achieve and maintain a wide operative field during laparoscopic surgery, we developed a "tap needle" that can penetrate the skin into the peritoneal or pleural cavities and can be used to pick up threads introduced into the cavities to elevate tissues or organs. The characteristics of the tap needle and method of use are reported herein.Entities:
