The following video demonstrates a laparoscopic splenectomy. As this technique continues to evolve we have introduced a product called the handport. This enables the surgeon to place their hand inside the patient while maintaining the pneumoperitoneum (CO2 gas in the abdomen). The handport greatly facilitates manipulation of the specimen during dissection and removal of the spleen.
