Abstract:
Two-hundred and twelve cases of pelviscopic operation were performed at Pusan St. Benedict Hospital from November, 1992 to December, 1995. The results were as follows; The common indications were ovarian cyst(32.2%), ectopic pregnancy(16.9%), and endometriosis(14.7%). Frequent types of surgery were salpingo-oophorectomy(22.6%), salpingectomy(10.8%), and oophorectomy(10.0%). The mean age of the patients was 33.4 years. The mean parity of the patients was 1.0. The mean duration of hospitalization was 4.8 days. The most common complication was hemorrhage at the trocar sites. In our conclusions, pelviscopic surgery made minimal postoperative hemorrhage with postoperative discomfort, low incidence of complications, and short duration of hospitalization. Pelviscopic surgery was useful and recommended for the treatment of gynecologic diseases.
