[Laparoscopy in oncology patients].
In a group of 23 patients with suspected malignant disease in the abdominal cavity laparoscopy was indicated and 11 times positive findings were obtained--six time a primary tumourous process and five times secondaries. The authors demonstrate on case-histories the advantages of laparoscopy when other examination fail or give dubious results. In their group of patients it always helped to establish a definite diagnosis.
