“…A 'minilap' has been advocated in the United States to obtain the same information (Strack et al, 1971). Except where technical difficulties prevent the full procedure, laparoscopy can allow the same sequence of investigations while remaining a lesser procedure that necessitates a much shorter hospital stay; however, unlike a 'minilap', general anaesthesia is required at present.…”

SUMMARY Our experience with laparoscopy in the diagnosis and staging of 23 cases of pancreatic cancer is reported. This endoscopic procedure has proved useful in the diagnosis of the disease, in the assessment of operability, and in the retrieval of material for histological and cytological confirmation of pancreatic cancer. An infra-gastric laparoscopic method for inspection of the body and tail of the pancreas is described and the technique may allow the earlier detection of neoplasms in this region.

“…In their early experience Strack et al (1971)45 encountered intraperitoneal haemorrhage and bile leak requiring emergency laparotomy, but neither of these complications occurred later in their study when the puncture site on the liver surface was routinely sutured. Chills and fever may occur soon after this procedure as after other methods of transhepatic cholangiography.…”
