The Veress needle is a medical instrument used at the beginning of laparoscopic surgical\nprocedures to inflate the abdominal area (pneumoperitoneum) and provide access to the\nabdominal cavity.\nThe Veress needle is the first step in gaining access to the abdominal cavity. After the\nneedle is inserted into the abdominal wall, the abdominal cavity is expanded by\ninsufflating it with a gas such as air or carbon dioxide (CO2). This expansion allows the\nsurgeon to better visualize internal organs and facilitates the more comfortable use of\nsurgical instruments. While inserting the needle, the spring-loaded rounded tip (safety\n\nmechanism) moves inward, piercing through the outer layers of the abdomen. Once the\nneedle enters the abdominal cavity, the rounded tip (safety mechanism) retracts,\npreventing injuries to internal organs. The Veress needle was developed in 1932 by\nHungarian internist Janos Veress and is named after its creator.<\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
