Entrada laparoscópica directa umbilical con trocar sin neumoperitoneo previo: una alternativa segura

In our experience, and in agreement with the literature, transumbilical direct trocar entry without prior use of Veress needle is a safe alternative. There were no complications in our series. This alternative offers certain advantages, such as more rapid achievement of the pneumoperitoneum, the absence of risk of gas embolism, simplification of the surgical steps, and lower rate of entry failures.
