Main Article Content
Abstract
This article aims to evaluate the effectiveness and use of laparoscopy in penetrating abdominal trauma, thus providing a better definition of the role of laparoscopic approach in patients with PAD. A systematic review was performed by searching indexed articles in the Virtual Health Library and the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online database (MEDLINE / PubMed), in which analysis after final analysis included 07 articles. In this study we identified seven articles that evaluated the use and contributions of the laparoscopic approach in patients with TAP, in which it was identified that the use as a diagnostic approach is widely used due to its benefits and safety. Regarding its therapeutic approach it was determined that in the largest of the studies there is indication, usefulness, reliability and accuracy of its use, however, for better results is essential experience of the surgical team in laparoscopic technique.
