Laparoscopic-assisted Stamm-gastrostomy: technical modifications to ease suturing inside the minimal trocar site

ConclusionWe demonstrated that laparoscopic gastrostomy with fully extracorporeal suturing within the trocar site is feasible and beneficial, especially for the most neurologically impaired pediatric cases. Technical modification, changing the order of the process, and suturing technique in the minimal space, made it easier to perform the procedures inside the minimal trocar hole.
