“…In addition, some patients who are H. pylori±negative may still have episodic bleeding, perforation, or obstruction. These patients may initially undergo endoscopy to control emergent bleeding, but after stabilization they should be considered for definitive surgical treatment [18]. Previously, surgery was viewed as a last resort in these patients, due to the morbidity of open ulcer operations with large incisions, and postgastrectomy syndromes.…”

“…The initial reports on highly selective vagotomy described high recurrence rates of up to 25 %. However, recent stud-ies have documented recurrence rates as low as 2 % during the long-term follow-up [18]. Cadiere et al studied 33 patients who had undergone laparoscopic HSV [17], in 26 of whom the procedure was elective after failure of prolonged medical therapy.…”

In 1987, Mouret performed the first laparoscopic cholecystectomy - dramatically changing the history of surgical practice. No other aspect of surgery has developed with such vigor as laparoscopy. Previously, surgeons had attempted to define the maximum level of surgical intervention a patient could withstand - but as laparoscopic surgery developed, this paradigm was turned on its head. Minimally invasive surgeons are continuing to determine and redefine how much can be accomplished through smaller incisions and with minimal surgical stress. Laparoscopy is still only in its infancy. This article reviews current aspects of laparoscopic surgery in 1999-2000 in relation to gallbladder, gastric, colorectal, and splenic disease, as well as reviewing the current role of laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of abdominal wall hernias.
