The use of a 1.2 mm microendoscope for diagnostic laparoscopy in sterility and chronic pelvic pain patients demonstrated high diagnostic value, potentially serving as a future screening method.

Abstract

The use of a 1.2 mm microendoscope is compared to the conventional laparoscopy technique in this study. In 22 sterility patients and 23 patients suffering from chronic pelvic pain the high diagnostic value of the microendoscope is shown. Only in one case endometriosis (EEC I) is overseen. The diagnostic laparoscopy by the microendoscope is a new minimal invasive procedure which could be important as a screening method in future.
