Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To examine the frequency of gynecologic laparoscopy complications from January 1996 to June 1996. DESIGN: Prospective review (Canadian Task Force classification II-1). SETTING: Tertiary center teaching hospital with 607 beds. PATIENTS: Two hundred thirty-four patients (age 15-70 yrs). INTERVENTIONS: Gynecologic laparoscopy. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The overall number of complications was 23 (9.8%). They were principally infection, extraperitoneal insufflation, and injury to blood vessels. Complication rates were examined by service (private, clinic, staff) and by type of laparoscopy (operative, diagnostic, laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy). Of 11 (47.8%) complications that occurred during laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy, 5 involved postoperative infection. CONCLUSION: The complication rate in this review was similar to that published in the literature, with the exception of ileus and infection, which occurred at higher rates in our institution.
