Abstract: | In the first years of its use, operative laparoscopy for uterine pathology was employed in the surgical treatment of myomas and in the correction of uterine retroversion (hysteropexy). More recently the technique has been employed for the laparoscopically assisted hysterectomy or for subtotal laparoscopical hysterectomy using the Semm Kit. Also radical hysterectomy has been performed in advanced centers by laparoscopy. In this paper, the Authors discuss the indications, the counterindications, the risks and complications of the operative laparoscopy in the different forms of ovarian pathology. |
