Use of uterine manipulator in laparoscopic colorectal surgery
Abstract
Laparoscopic colorectal surgery has become more common with the increase in the number of trained surgeons. We have used a disposable uterine manipulator to retract the uterus. This technique has been found to be very useful for laparoscopic low anterior resection and abdomino-perineal resection in females.
