How to do a laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic 'clean sweep' for small bowel polyp clearance in Peutz Jeghers syndrome

Abstract

We demonstrate the technical details of laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic 'clean sweep' for small bowel polyp clearance in Peutz Jeghers Syndrome. A 'clean sweep' reduces the risk for future recurrences but was previously performed with an open technique. A minimally invasive approach is safe, reduces bowel trauma and has good postoperative outcomes.
