[Laser laparoscopy in therapy of adnexa tumors].
Of 149 laser laparoscopies 50 were performed for adnexal masses. Histological evaluation revealed benign cysts in 54%, endometrioma in 24% and other benign tumors in 14%. In 2 cases, a mucinous cyst was diagnosed, in 1 case a borderline ovarian tumor and in 1 case adenocarcinoma was found. There were no complications. 10% of the patients underwent secondary laparotomy. During the observation period, 6% of the patients required operation for recurrent disease. Low complication rate, little blood loss and a short hospital stay are advantages of laparoscopic surgery.
