Laparoscopic Anatomy of the Abdomen in Dorsal Recumbent Male Donkey

Laparoscopic anatomy of the abdomen in dorsal recumbent male donkey was an applied anatomical study. Provide an accurate and detailed description of the laparoscopic anatomy of the abdomen of donkey positioned in dorsal recumbency was considered a diagnostic and a therapeutic surgical importance. The laparoscopy was performed on ten adult apparently healthy male donkeys in average of 7-12 years old, in order to record the normal laparoscopic anatomy of abdomen in dorsal recumbency. The preoperative techniques were considered. General anesthesia was induced and maintained with total intravenous agents. Laparoscope was delivered into the abdomen via an umbilical main cannula. Laparoscope and associated video recording system were used to obtain a clear, magnified and panoramic shoots of the abdominal cavity. The anatomical findings were more real and vital than that of fixed condition. The prestaltic motility as well as the vascularization of the serous layer of peritoneum and the abdominal organs was notified. The study was fully described two dangerous triangular areas; TD and TP especially during endoscopic repair of inguinal hernia. The work considered as a gate to further endoscopic anatomy and the donkey was an ideal experimental model.
