World Journal of Surgery Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Most gynecologic procedures can be accomplished using laparoscopic surgical techniques. Gynecologic laparoscopic procedures are described that involve the reproductive system, lymph node sampling, bowel and urinary tract repair, and abscess therapy. Laparoscopic surgery enhances the outcome of most current gynecologic procedures.

Résumé

La plupart des procédés gynécologiques peuvent Être réalisés avec des techniques de chirurgie coelioscopique. De nouvelles techniques de coelioscopie gynécologiques sont décrites ici comme les prélèvements ganglionnaires, les reconstructions digestives et urinaires et le traitement des abcès. La chirurgie coelioscopique améliore grandement l'évolution de la plupart des interventions gynécologiques courantes.

Resumen

Casi todos los procedimientos ginecológicos pueden ser realizados utilizando técnicas laparoscópicas. Se describen los nuevos procedimientos laparoscópicos pertinentes al sistema reproductor, al muestreo de ganglios linfáticos, a la reparación del tracto intestinal y urinario y al tratamiento de los abscesos. La cirugía laparoscópica incrementa el buen resultado de la mayor parte de los procedimientos laparoscópicos.
