[Celioscopy and ectopic pregnancy].
The most frequent indication is the treatment of ectopic pregnancy. Salpingotomy with tubal preservation, the procedure of choice for young women wanting to become pregnant, has been used in 88 cases. However, tubal preservation is not always possible (rupture of the ovarian tube, hemosalpinx), and sometimes not even advisable (inflammatory lesions, homolateral recurrence) and salpingectomy was necessary in 294 cases. Another indication for salpingectomy is painful chronic salpingitis, resulting from an undetected or ill-treated Chlamydia trachomatis infection: 84 cases.
