Abstract
The low response rate of the present survey does not allow us to assess the diffusion of LA in Italy. but rather to appraise its practice in centers routinely performing laparoscopic surgery. In the hands of experienced surgeons. LA has morbitdity rates comparable to those of in- ternational series. 'I`he higher diagnostic yield of laparoscopy makes it an invaluable tool in the management algorithm of women of childbearing age: its advantages in the presence of severe peritonitis are less clear-cut. Surgeons remain the main limiting factor preventing a wider dilfusion of LA in our country.File in questo prodotto:
