title: [Endometriosis and laparoscopy].
abstract: Endometriosis in an important disease especially for girls and young women. It often causes chronic complaints and infertility, requiring an early endoscopic diagnosis for their prophylaxis and therapy. The characteristics of endometriosis, the indications for laparoscopy, its technique, and the endoscopic picture are described in detail. The knowledge of the special endoscopic features is essential, otherwise there will be a high percentage of false negative diagnostic results. Reducing the failure rate in endometriosis diagnosis is the aid of this survey.
