Laparoscopic liver resection
Selectivity spares tissue and exposes blood vessels and bile ducts selectively and athermal
What experts say
The combination of irrigation and aspiration in one instrument can accelerate
the process of liver parenchyma dissection and provide a stable good
visualization of the surgical field.”

With low effect setting you get high selectivity (e.g. liver hilum).
With higher effect you dissect faster, selectivity decreases.
You are even faster with the monopolar applicator: hydrodissection changing with monopolar coagulation.

- No differences in patient-related and surgical characteristics
- Intraoperative blood loss did not differ significantly
- Significantly higher total bilirubin level on the second post-operative day in the ultrasonic aspirator group
- No significant difference in transaction duration, pringle maneuver, complication rate, hospital stay

Dissection, coagulation and aspiration combined in one instrument. This shortens your operating time.
