Bipolar electrocautery is a vital component of an efficient, integrated hydro-dissection system.

The author describes a new, unique, integrated suction-irrigation system for hydrodissection with bipolar instrumentation which has significantly facilitated the performance of advanced pelviscopic surgery on 350 patients in the department of gynecology between November 1, 1990 and October 31, 1992.

Culdocentesis is an obsolete diagnostic tool in suspected ectopic pregnancy.

We studied 332 patients with proven pregnancies. Prediction of hemoperitoneum by assessment of the Douglas pouch during bimanual examination had a false negative rate of 42.1%. The false negative rate for culdocentesis was 14.8%. It is therefore concluded that culdocentesis is not a useful tool in the diagnosis of suspected ectopic pregnancies.

Diagnostic miniculdoscopy preceding laparoscopy when bowel adhesions are suspected.

Suspected bowel adhesions are often considered a relative contraindication to laparoscopy. To attempt preoperative diagnoses of intraabdominal adhesions, miniculdoscopy was performed on ten patients with a miniendoscope. It was possible to establish the presence or absence of adhesions and to determine a safe abdominal trocar insertion site. The laparoscope trocar could be inserted under direct controlled vision with the culdoscope in nine cases, suggesting that this procedure averts bowel adhesions. This technique may be a contribution to safer laparoscopy.
