Operative laparoscopy for pelvic and extrapelvic pathology.
The treatment of pelvic adhesions has been the first and more successful indication for operative laparoscopy. Frequently this intervention is the first step of others laparoscopic procedures. The different modalities of these interventions, i.e. by electrocautery or by scissor, or by laser are discussed. Among indications of operative laparoscopy for pelvic pathology the treatment of endometrial implants has been considered. In this paper less frequent indications for operative laparoscopy as pelvic abscess, or complementary operation as appendicectomy and colecistectomy are also discussed.
