title: [Laparoscopic surgery. A shift in paradigm?].
abstract: Since it was first introduced at the beginning of the century, laparoscopy has been developed by pioneers in the field of gynaecological surgery from a diagnostic aid to a high tech tool for use in various branches of surgery. In the near future, this rapidly developing technique, with three-dimensional video and robot-assisted surgery, will require well planned theoretical and practical training.
