Carbon dioxide embolism is a well-known complication of laparoscopy that can be lethal. We describe a patient who showed signs of pulmonary interstitial edema revealing a probable gas embolism. This event occurred during a gynecologic laparoscopy performed for uterine perforation after a curettage.
Hysteroscopic surgery has become a routine gynecologic procedure. The advantages are associated with more accurate removal of lesion, its short operating time, rapid post-operative recovery and low morbidity. However, there are potentially serious complications which can be occured during and
The 1991 American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists membership survey on operative hysteroscopy had a total of 630 respondents (almost double the 1988 number) who reported performing 17,298 procedures as compared to 7,293 in 1988. Directed biopsy and endometrial ablation were the procedures
The 1988 American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists' (AAGL) Membership Survey on Operative Hysteroscopy had a 19% response rate. A total of 377 respondents reported performing 7,293 operative hysteroscopies. The number of procedures reported per respondent ranged from 1 to 325; 75% of

Woman with illegal abortion presenting bleeding and shock secondary to hypovolemia and sepsis. In the laparotomy there is no uterine perforation and the patient develops disseminated coagulation. The patient is taken to the operating room and bleeding stops. She receives more fluids than necessary
Transendoscopic thermal preparation techniques like laser- or electrosurgery have proved to be most reliable for minimal invasive intrauterine surgery during operative hysteroscopy in mares. To determine the effect of Nd:YAG laser surgery on the endometrium and the complete uterine wall compared
We retrospectively analyzed 27 cases of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia treated by emergency surgery from 1985-1996 at PUMC hospital. Seventeen cases were diagnosed of choriocarcinoma and 10 were invasive mole. Sixteen out of 27 patients were subjected to hysterectomy because of uterine
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the preclinical safety and efficacy of the thermal balloon endometrial ablator (TBEA).
METHODS
Informed consent was taken from all patients for TBEA and hysterectomy at same sitting. TBEA was performed in vivo just before hysterectomy on 6 patients' uteri to determine uterine
This study was undertaken to evaluate the various gynecologic endoscopic surgical techniques including resectoscopic myomectomy, laparoscopic myomectomy, and laparoscopy assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) used in the treatment of uterine myomas. The medical records of 136 cases of uterine myomas
The 1993 American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists' membership survey on operative hysteroscopy had 713 respondents reporting 14,707 procedures. Directed biopsy and endometrial ablation were the most commonly reported. The majority of operative hysteroscopies were performed for a complaint
BACKGROUND
Complications due to hysteroscopy are relatively rare events. They occur more frequently with operative hysteroscopy than with diagnostic hysteroscopy. Exact complications rates are difficult to determine owing to the natural tendency to report successes but not complications. Recognition
OBJECTIVE
Our purpose was to retrospectively review the intraoperative and long-term outcomes of 568 patients with abnormal uterine bleeding who were treated by endometrial ablation over an 11-year period.
METHODS
From 1893 to 1994, 401 endometrial ablations were performed with the
