I cannot confirm this "type" of trocar. It does not s/l "Veirs"-type trocar to me.
An incision was made above and to the left of the umbilicus, through which a #5/12 Visiport US Surgical trocar was inserted under direct vision into the peritoneal cavity. This was followed by placing another #5/12 trocar in the left upper quadrant. Another #5/12 trocar was placed in the epigastric region to the right of the midline. Another #5/12 trocar _____**s/l "varices"-type trocar was placed between the supraumbilical and the left upper quadrant trocar site. The abdomen was insufflated, and all the trocar sites were placed under direct vision.
a stapler used in a laparoscopic gastric bypass
Subject: a stapler used in a laparoscopic gastric bypass
