s/l meniscus test during Veress needle insertion for laparoscopy?
Subject: s/l meniscus test during Veress needle insertion for laparoscopy?

Help..... Sounds like meniscus. Very clear.

The HUMI was then placed without complication. We changed our gloves and went up above. An incision was made in the infraumbilical portion with the scalpel. A Veress needle was placed and no complications with that. The *meniscus test was positive. Carbon dioxide gas was used to establish a pneumoperitoneum with approximately 50 mmHg with 2.1 L of gas.
