This lecture will provide practical advice on when and how to perform a thorough exploratory laparotomy, with an emphasis on which aspects of technique and equipment are essential versus “nice to have”.

At the end of the lecture the delegate should:
- Know when an exlap is indicated and what the essential considerations are before embarking on surgery.
- Be able to describe the clinically relevant anatomy when performing an thorough exlap.
- Have learnt surgical tips for performing biopsies of abdominal organs.
- Know the current recommendations for opening and closing a large coeliotomy incision.
