Laparoscopic Hepatectomy via Remote Mentoring From Jamaica to Trinidad
CUREUS(2021)
Abstract
Laparoscopic hepatectomy brings many physiologic advantages over open hepatectomy and adheres to all oncologic principles. It is currently considered the standard of care. However, these are technically difficult operations to perform. Consequently, the expertise may not be universally available for all patients to benefit from laparoscopic hepatectomy. We report a unique situation where remote mentoring was used to guide bariatric surgeons in Jamaica to complete a laparoscopic hepatectomy.
