This paper explores the utilization and advantages of laser laparoscopy over conventional techniques, using early pregnancy rates from endometriosis vaporization and adhesiolysis as a basis for findings.

Abstract

Assuming that a surgeon could have a laser capability available during every laparoscopic procedure, two pertinent questions need to be addressed. First, how often can, or should, one use the laser laparoscope? Second, what are the advantages over the conventional techniques of operative laparoscopy? These and several other related questions have been addressed and partially answered in the text of this paper based, in part, on early pregnancy rates in cases of Stages I and II endometriosis vaporization and adhesiolysis by laser laparoscopy.
