title: [Laparoscopic appendectomy from the gynecologic viewpoint. A report of experiences].
abstract: From November 1992 until the middle of 1997 we had 80 laparoscopic appendectomies in our gynaecological department of the district hospital Parchim. These procedures were done with the Semm 3-sling-technique. Recurrent abdominal pain, ovarial tumor, dysmenorrhoea and the wish of sterilisation were the main indications for laparoscopy. Visible pathological changes of the appendix vermiformis led to the laparoscopic appendectomy. Complications were seen only in three cases in the postoperative period. Conclusions and recommendations are given.
