A perfect 99 yard run just to fall 1 yard short!
In minimally invasive surgery, that "last yard" is trocar closure. After navigating a complex, demanding procedure, the instinct is to exhale, let the trainees finish the case..... But port closure isn't just routine housekeeping—it carries real risks of needlesticks and inadvertent tissue injury if vigilance slips at the finish line.
The Laproshark, with its protected needle design, gives you that critical margin of safety all the way to the very end of the procedure.
The Laproshark ensures safety remains an active priority until the drapes come down, not an afterthought left to end-of-case fatigue. Never let your guard down, even in the last mile.

THE LAPROSHARK XL IS FINALLY HERE!!
The Laproshark has become the trocar closure choice for leading surgeons worldwide, trusted for its elegantly simple design, reliable performance, and safety-focused functionality.
Surgeons have been looking to extend that performance to larger trocar sites and extraction sites.
Introducing the Laproshark XL.

Fascinating piece of history: This is a bill from @MaimoHealth for the maternity ward in 1944. Note the room charge was $10.50/day!, mothers stayed after they delivered for at least a week and payment was due in advance!!
Congratulations to the @MaimoHealth team upon the successful completion of our fist Colovac case. Maimonides is one of the only centers in the world offering this option to save patients undergoing rectal cancer surgery from requiring a stoma. #rectalcancer#stoma

Improving surgeons’ tools is the raison d'etre of the LaproShark. The Laproshark is an innovative and elegant solution to many of the problems surgeons have with the current generation of trocar closure devices. Come check us out at https://t.co/f7LtAobVZJ @ManishChandSurg
MIS is the only major #surgical revolution over the last 30 years. However most of the instruments we use today in #laparoscopy are still the same rudimentary ones from the 90s. Join this high quality webinar free on AIS Channel with LivsMed where we explore the Evolution of MIS
@Herniadoc My 2cents is that in an attempt to obliterate the defect we do not pay careful enough attention to the round ligament and the nerves and vessels that run with it as we would when it’s the vas and it’s nerves and vascular supply.
There is absolutely no way this trocar site could have been closed SAFELY with any other device. The protected needle and the automatic suture capture makes the Laproshark an elegantly simple solution. @PMI_Progressive@SAGES_Updates@ASMBS @Ethicon @IBCClub1@RaulRosenthalMD
This is a critical option for surgeons to have in their armamentarium!! My only issue is that every time I bring it up to my residents they think I’m kidding and saying “The Lawyer’s” procedure….
The Deloyer procedure is an excellent option for creating a colorectal anastomosis when the colonic conduit will not reach (recently posted, but accidentally deleted and several requests for a repost). @JustinKellyMD @JohnRTMonsonMD@MarkSoliman@ASCRS_1
