Celioscopy

Celioscopy is a method of visual examination of the abdominal cavity. The word comes from the Greek words "coelio", which means "abdominal cavity", and "skopeo", which means "to look, observe."

Celioscopy allows the surgeon to examine the abdominal organs - liver, stomach, intestines, spleen, etc. - without the need to make a large incision. For this, a special device is used - a celioscope. It consists of an optical tube with an illumination device and a lens. The celioscope is inserted into the abdominal cavity through a small incision in the anterior abdominal wall, most often in the navel area.

Celioscopy is widely used for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the abdominal organs. It allows you to identify pathological changes, take a biopsy for histological examination, and also perform minor surgical procedures. Compared to traditional laparotomy, celioscopy provides a number of advantages: less trauma, quick recovery, good cosmetic effect.

Celioscopy is a method of examining the intestines using colonoscopy. This method allows doctors to diagnose various diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, such as cancer, inflammatory diseases and infections.

Colonoscopy is an examination of the inside of the colon. To do this, a flexible tube, called a colonoscope, is inserted through the anus into the colon, with a camera installed at the end. This way, the doctor can see the inside of the colon and diagnose the presence of diseases.

Celioscopy is performed when the following symptoms appear: * Regular abdominal pain, accompanied by flatulence, bowel dysfunction and other gastrointestinal symptoms. These symptoms may be associated with various gastrointestinal diseases - gastritis, colitis, stomach ulcers, etc. * The appearance of blood in the stool, associated with the presence of intestinal cancer or ulcers. Research shows that colonoscopy is an effective method for diagnosing colon cancer, as this malignancy appears around stage I.

Radical treatment for colon cancer requires removal of the entire tumor and part of the intestinal wall. In this case, a thin internal vascular suture is usually left to maintain the integrity of the mesentery, which after surgery ensures adequate blood circulation. Consequently, all parts of the intestine affected by metastases are removed, even if this leads to subsequent intestinal obstruction. After the examination, as an exception, brachyobliteration (anastomosis between the upper
