title: [Is Monroe's point the site of choice for the establishment of pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopy?].
abstract: On the occasion of a case of death during performance of pneumoperitoneum before peritoneoscopy the presence of adhesions in the left lower quadrant of the abdomen in 850 peritoneoscopied patients was investigated. In 91,55% of the evaluated results the left lower quadrant of the abdomen was free from adhesions. Thus, the Monroe-point is even further on the place of choice in order to make the pneumoperitoneum. The Verres-needles are preferable to all other types of needles.
