Abstract
Adequate illumination during deep pelvic dissection in low anterior resection and abdominoperineal resection is sometimes difficult and frustrating, especially in deep narrow pelvises. Various methods of illumination are being used to overcome this problem. We present our technique of using the laparoscope as an excellent illumination tool for deep pelvic dissection in conventional surgery.
