title: [Second-look laparoscopy in artificially-induced ascites].
abstract: Laparoscopy with artificial ascites creates a larger space between organs and makes an accurate inspection of the entire intra-peritoneal abdomen possible. Second-look laparoscopy with artificial ascites was performed 91 times on 63 tumour-patients. With the reliability of a second-look laparotomy, this method has the advantage of less stress for the patient, and an early discharge from hospital. The procedure can theoretically be repeated multiple times.
