Abstract
The variety of procedures that can be performed on the organs contained in the abdominal cavity is such that there are many different ways to approach them. The different laparotomies available are adapted to both the type of organ to be approached and the type of procedure to be performed; they must also take into account the anatomy of the abdominal wall, so as to be as minimally disruptive as possible. This article successively describes the surgical anatomy of the abdominal wall and the different types of laparotomies used in scheduled surgery.
