The differential diagnostic importance of laparoscopy in pathology of the lesser pelvis

: It is known that presently the diagnostic process is enriched by the application of endoscopic methods like laparoscopy and hysteroscopy. The aim of our work is to point out the importance of laparoscopy in differential diagnostical processes. 358 laparoscopies were carried out for the period 1988-92. After laparoscopy the authors correct clinical diagnoses of the different patients' groups. The results of our experience in application of laparoscopy to cases of pathologic changes in the pelvis enable us to recommend this additional method, having in mind ist considerable value for the differential diagnosis in the gynaecological practice.
