title: [The technic of "open pelviscopy". A new method for increased safety in laparoscopy].
abstract: The method of "open pelviscopy" is described and compared with the common performance of gynecological pelviscopy. The "open pelviscopy" combines the advantages of laparotomy--preparation of anatomical layers under view of the operator--with those of pelviscopy--minimal traumatization and optimal view at the intraabdominal organs. This method avoids blind puncture of the abdominal cavity, which otherwise is necessary to perform the pneumoperitoneum and to use the optic instruments. Apart from the well established indications for diagnostic and therapeutic gynecological pelviscopy we prefer this method especially in obese patients and in those who formerly had several laparotomies.
