Continuous retroflexion cystoscopy during prostate cryoablation.

abstract：PURPOSE:Safe insertion of the first port during laparoscopic surgery has always been problematic, from the early use of the Veress needle to the open Hasson technique. We describe a novel, safe, and well-illuminated technique of port entry using the Killian nasal speculum. This technique has been used successfully in t...
