What's new in laparoscopic surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery has been really influenced by the improvement of medical products. The possibility to expand the surgical field and the new surgical instruments have contributed to the wide diffusion of mininvasive techniques. A so quick evolution has requested a revision of well established procedures and methods. But, above all, it has required a specific knowledge related to the different technical supports.
Nowadays, the high-quality technical approach of mininvasive surgery necessarily leads to more sophisticated solutions in order to overcome some possible problems due to human limits. A specific innovative equipment allows to simplify different surgical tricks as well as repeating the same surgical procedures.
Mininvasive surgery requires an accurate use of hands: surgeons have to follow formative training, in order to acquire specific abilities and strengthen previous competences.
