According to whether uterine artery treatment takes place vaginally or laparoscopically, laparoscopy for hysterectomy can be considered according to two modalities: laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) and total laparoscopi…

The standard technique for total laparoscopic hysterectomy is characterised by two essential points. The first is that all instruments are reusable and the second is that hemostasis is ensured by bipolar coagulation. It is a safe technique …

Peritoneal and ovarian endometriosis are anatomically highly polymorphous and can give rise to pain and sterility. Endometriosis can be recognized and evaluated by means of laparoscopy and an appropriate therapeutic strategy determined. Sur…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the technique and short-term results of intraperitoneal (IP) myomectomies. DESIGN: From January 1, 1990, to March 1, 1991, IP myomectomies were performed in all cases in which it appeared feasible. SETTING: This stu…
