Since the first reports of laparoscopic surgery for inflammatory bowel disease from Peters in 1992, several literatures have subsequently shown the potential advantage of minimal access surgery for small bowel pathologies. The increased use of laparoscopy in the management of gastrointestinal problems continues to expand. Procedures such as jejunostomies, diagnosis of intestinal obstruction or ischemia, resection of the small bowel, and lysis of adhesions can be managed with this technique.
