摘要:
SummaryLaparoscopic surgery has recently been encouraged as an alternative to open procedures in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The laparoscopic technique reduces exposure to blood products and sharp instruments; however, it exposes the surgical team to the HIV-infected patient in a manner not encountered during open procedures. The evacuation of the pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic procedures releases aerosolized HIV-infected blood and peritoneal fluid into the operative suite. Evacuation of the penumoperitoneum into a closed system and appropriate precautions during instrument changes will diminish the exposure of the surgical team to aerosolized HIV-infected blood and peritoneal fluid.
