AB  - It  is  very  important  for  the  surgeon  to  be  conversant  with  the  types  of  laparoscopic  instruments  available  to  perform  colorectal  surgery.  We  have  found  it  very  useful  to  work  across  specialities  in  order  to  realize  the  entire  range  of  instrumentation  available  to  surgeons  today,  especially  in  bariatric  surgery  and  gynecology.  Laparoscopic  instruments  come  in  different  sizes  and  lengths,  which  can  be  tailored  to  the  operation  in  question  and  the  patient’s  body  habitus.  The  most  common  instruments  are  5  mm  in  diameter  and  35  to  45  cm  in  length.  For  tall  and  morbidly  obese  patients,  longer  bariatric  instruments  should  be  available.  This  chapter  describes  the  most  common  instruments  that  are  routinely  available  on  the  colorectal  surgery  tray  for  every  laparoscopic  operation.  Of  course,  apart  from  these  instruments,  multiple  specialized  and  procedure-specific  instruments  are  available  to  surgeons.  Figure  5-1  illustrates  the  instruments  on  a  basic  laparoscopic  tray  for  colorectal  surgery.
