History of Laparoscopy

Minimally Invasive Surgery

The Pioneers 1

The great physician, Hippocrates of Ancient Greece( circa 460-377 BC) made the original reference to a speculum to examine the rectum.

The Pioneers 2

In the early 1800s, Philip Bozzini of Austria examined the urethra of a patient using a simple tube and candlelight. (Basic design of Lichtleiter was a instrument for future development of endoscopes)

Segalas in Paris, John Fisher in USA, Desormeaux in Paris developed their improved cystoscopes.

The Pioneers 3

Bruck, a dentist, developed a platinum wire cooled by water to illuminate the inside of the mouth.

Based on Bruck design, Nitze finally developed his first improved cystoscope in 1855 in which the light rays were gathered into his instrument via mirrors.

Thomas Edison invented the incandescnt light bulb.(1879) Newman of Glasgow miniaturzed Edison`s invention and

incorporated it into the Nitze`s cystoscope(first Laparoscop).

The Pioneers 4

Georg Kelling of Dresden performed the first cholecystectomy in living dog(COELIOSCOPIE -1902) / the first human laparoscopy with pneumoperitoneum using room air insufflation with Nitze cystoscope.

The Pioneers 5

Jacobaeus of Sweden presented his series of patients who had laparoscopy in 1910 (published a series of over 100 laparoscopy and thoracoscopy(LAPAROSCOPY).

The Pioneers 6

Dimitri von Ott from St.Petersburg examined the intraabdominal contents and the pelvis via an inscision in the vaginal vault to insert a speculum to examine the pelvis./Gynecologic laparoscopy/ (1901)

Diagnostic tool

Laparoscopy has been used primarily as a diagnostic tool since its introduction by Kelling & Jacobaeus in the early 20th century.
