Description
Six important errors to avoid during laparoscopic pelvic lymph node dissection:
1. Dissecting without a defined, cancer-specific nodal template.
2. Injuring or compromising the blood supply of the ureter.
3. Grasping, stretching or thermally injuring the obturator nerve.
4. Avulsing vascular branches or controlling bleeding blindly.
5. Dividing lymphatic channels without secure control.
6. Skipping final inspection or failing to identify specimens correctly.
