["Second-look laparoscopy" (author's transl)].
The authors present a report on their experience with the so-called "second-look laparoscopy" which they have been performing systematically since 1974. 44 (12%) second-look laparoscopies were done among a total of 383 laparoscopies during 1974--1977. Second-look laparoscopy was performed on routine basis in women treated by radiology and/or pharmacotherapy for advanced carcinoma of the genitals, especially in the case of ovarian carcinoma. The diagnostic measure represents an important contribution to establishing whether chemotherapy has been successfull, especially in ovarian cancer.
