que les courants mono- ou bipolaires, l’absence de
canule d’aspiration manipulée par le chirurgien sont
une gêne et une limite qu’il ne faut pas négliger.
L’introduction de cette chirurgie dans un bloc opéra-
toire impose de la pédagogie et du dialogue avec les
autres acteurs, qui voient souvent de façon négative
l’arrivée de cet appareil.
Le coût reste un problème majeur, surtout dans
la période économique actuelle. L’investissement
initial, le prix des consommables et de la mainte-
nance ne peuvent pas être minimisés. Aucune étude
médico-économique française n’a encore analysé le
ratio entre les surcoûts hospitaliers et les avantages
en termes de séjour écourté, de reprise plus rapide
d’activité, du plus faible nombre de complications,
etc. Les données disponibles sont essentiellement
nord-américaines, dans un système de financement
différent du nôtre. Elles semblent montrer un avan-
tage par rapport à la laparotomie, essentiellement
en raison du séjour écourté et d’une réduction de la
morbidité. L’avantage par rapport à la coelioscopie
reste encore à démontrer…
Perspectives
L’accès à de nouveaux instruments semble imminent
et facilitera le déroulement de certaines interven-
tions. L’éducation des jeunes opérateurs devrait
bénéficier de la diffusion des consoles biplaces et
des simulateurs. Enfin, le robot permettra peut-être
l’essor de techniques intéressantes mais restées
jusque-là confidentielles, tel le single port.
Surtout, il est nécessaire de réaliser des essais pros-
pectifs contrôlés, qui montreront les différences
réelles par rapport à la cœlioscopie classique. L’ini-
tiative du protocole ROBO-GYN (F. Narducci, centre
Oscar-Lambret, Lille) va dans le bon sens. ■
