Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Laparoscopic surgery has been at the forefront of gynecologic surgical innovation in the past decade. Significant benefits which have been realized by the utilization of laparoscopy include: 1) a reduced size of surgical incisions 2) reduced length of hospital stays 3) increased utilization of outpatient surgery 4) a more rapid postoperative recovery period 5) reduced morbidity and 6) reduced total costs of treatment. Recent refinements in surgical technique and instrumentation have allowed for the development of a new incarnation of laparoscopy which has the potential to further realize each of these goals. Office microlaparoscopy under local anesthesia is the most recent advance in gynecologic minimally invasive surgery.
