[Diagnostic microlaparoscopies with 2 mm optics].
Within a period of 5 months a serious of 42 small diameter laparoscopies (2 mm) (SDL) were performed with a modified technical approach. 28 (SDL). Procedures were done under general anaesthesia and the findings were controlled by concurrent conventional laparoscopy. In 26 out of 28 patients we could confirm the SDL diagnosis. 14 patients had SDL in analgosedation. Optical information gained by SDL was sufficient and, as experience in handling the system increased, also competitive. The procedures performed in analgosedation were tolerated and highly appreciated (reduced incisional pains, reduced complaints due to pneumoperitoneum). SDL procedures seem to have possible indications in gynaecology.
