    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Laparoscopic procedures have attained increasing importance in the diagnosis and therapy of carcinoma of the cervix in recent years (Table 1) [34]. Laparoscopic pelvic and para-aortal lymphadenectomies are therefore performed to assess the operability of carcinoma of the cervix and for its staging. In the case of primarily operable tumours, paraortal and pelvic lymphadenectomy is carried out by a laparoscopic procedure, and when the lymph nodes are negative nodes and there is no intra-abdominal metastasis the lymphadenectomy is combined with laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy. If laparoscopy discloses positive lymph nodes, debulking can be carried out and the patient can be referred for radiotherapy. In addition, laparoscopic procedures, even in combination with radical cervicectomy for early invasive carcinoma of the cervix, can mean conservation of the patient's fertility. In the case of primarily inoperable tumours laparoscopy can be used to assess the lymph node status and the intra-abdominal tumour spread and to classify the patient's condition as potentially secondarily operable or inoperable. In addition, in the case of primarily undertreated patients whose carcinoma of the cervix has been diagnosed incidentally in preparations of tissue examined following hysterectomy, posttreatment in the form of laparoscopic lymphadenectomy and laparoscopically assisted colpectomy can be performed.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Laparoskopische Verfahren haben in den letzten Jahren zunehmend Bedeutung in der Diagnostik und Therapie des Zervixkarzinoms erlangt (Tabelle 1) [34]. So wird die laparoskopische pelvine und paraaortale Lymphonodektomie zur Beurteilung der Operabilität und zum Staging des Zervixkarzinoms eingesetzt. Bei primär operablen Tumoren wird die paraaortale und pelvine Lymphonodektomie laparoskopisch ausgeführt und bei negativen Lymphknoten und Fehlen einer intraabdominalen Metastasierung mit der laparoskopisch assistierten radikalen vaginalen Hysterektomie kombiniert. Werden durch Laparoskopie positive Lymphknoten gefunden, so kann ein Debulking durchgeführt und die Patientin der Strahlentherapie zugeführt werden. Zudem dienen laparoskopische Verfahren auch in Kombination mit der radikalen Trachelektomie beim frühinvasiven Zervixkarzinom der Erhaltung der Fertilität. Bei primär nicht operablen Tumoren kann die Laparoskopie dazu benutzt werden, Lymphknotenstatus und intraabdominale Tumorausbreitung zu beurteilen und Patientinnen in potentiell sekundär operabel und nicht operabel einzuteilen. Im weiteren kann bei primär untertherapierten Patientinnen, bei denen ein Zervixkarzinom im Hysterektomiepräparat als Zufallsbefund diagnostiziert wurde, eine Nachbehandlung mittels laparoskopischer Lymphonodektomie und laparoskopisch assistierter Kolpektomie erfolgen.

    Notes: Abstract. Objective: Introduction of laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) was evaluated for its usefulness to replace abdominal hysterectomy in fibroids. Study design: A total of 240 women with a mean age of 46.7 years underwent hysterectomy over a period of one year. The technique of LAVH was introduced starting in the second quarter of the study period. Clinical data of 60 patients undergoing either LAVH or abdominal hysterectomy for fibroids were compared in a cross-sectional study by χ 2- and t-test. Results: A comparison between the first and the last quarter of the study period showed that the rate of abdominal hysterectomies decreased from 66% to 12%, whereas LAVH increased from 0 to 40% (p 〈 0.05). The rate of vaginal hysterectomies remained between 34% and 48%. Compared to abdominal hysterectomy, LAVH operating time was about 1/3 longer, hospital stay was shorter (3 days), and LAVH proved more cost-effective than abdominal hysterectomy (significance of all differences: p 〈 0.05). Conclusions: LAVH is a valid alternative to abdominal hysterectomy in fibroids.
