Video Description
Advancement in laparoscopic surgery led to the development of various extracorporeal knot tying techniques. A modified Roeder’s knot is a spiral sliding knot that is particularly useful if the target tissue for ligation is bulky or under tension. This video reviews the modified Roeder’s knot technique and demonstrates its use during a total laparoscopic hysterectomy at the time of vaginal vault closure. This video includes a step-by-step demonstration of how to tie the modified Roeder’s knot and can be used as an educational resource for surgeons and trainees.
