[Micro-endoscopy, minimal access endoscopy--an overview of current status and future possibilities].
Based on technical and clinical application research a new generation of so-called micro-endoscopes was developed, with a wide range of indications in gynaecology as well. The innovative potential of these new endoscopes is, however, still to be considered against the background of the risks of erroneous findings at laparoscopical and hysteroscopical diagnosis, so that here too, clear indications will have to be worked out.
