Insertion of the laparoscopic Trocar without the use of carbon dioxide gas.

Nine-hundred-and-fourteen patients have undergone the single puncture Falope Ring laparoscopic tubal ligations in a community hospital without prior insufflation of carbon dioxide gas. Anesthesia time averaged 10.5 minutes, surgical procedure time averaged 8.1 minutes. The patients left the hospital in satisfactory condition in the afternoon of the procedure. The only complication was a failed ligation (0.1%). Two-week follow-up showed no untoward complications. Omission of carbon dioxide insufflation before Trocar insertion lowers complications such as nausea, emesis, and post-operative pain. Also, anesthesia and surgical times are reduced. None of the patients required intubation during anesthesia.

Ruptured appendix after elective abortion. A case report.

Abdominal pain and fever after an uncomplicated elective abortion usually point to incomplete abortion and endometritis. We treated a woman for acute suppurative appendicitis one week after such an abortion. When fever, nausea, vomiting and pain are not relieved by the standard doses of medication, acute appendicitis must be added to the usual gynecologic differential diagnoses.
