Prof. Priyadarshan Jategaonkar has invented and published several innovative techniques in Minimal Access Surgery that have been well-appreciated and regularly utilized internationally. They are simple, easy to learn, user-friendly and designed especially to curb the learning curve of a laparoscopic surgeon. A clever use of day-to-day laparoscopic instruments is all that is required to accomplish them. These techniques are ´´skill-based´´ rather than ´´equipment-based´´ that make them easily reproducible in clinical practice. This book is a compilation of some of them.
