Laparoscopic Video Inguinal Lymphadnectomy ( L-Veil) In Carcinoma Vulva

Video Transcription

Video Summary

This video demonstrates LVAP (Laparoscopic Video Endoscopic Inguinal Lymphadenectomy) for carcinoma vulva, a minimally invasive alternative to open inguinal lymphadenectomy, which often has high morbidity. LVAP involves precise port placement, dissection under scarpa fascia, preservation of the saphenous vein, and removal of superficial and deep inguinal lymph nodes. Benefits include reduced skin necrosis, lower wound complications, quicker recovery, and satisfactory oncological outcomes. The procedure is especially suitable for early-stage vulval cancer and offers fewer complications like lymphedema and seroma compared to open surgery. Though time-consuming, LVAP is a promising technique needing further multicenter studies for validation.
