Abstract

Since its introduction in 1991 laparoscopy has gained a strong foothold in Urology and during the last 5 years laparoscopic technology has been applied to many urological procedures. Today, better skills in laparoscopic techniques and availability of laparoscopic instruments in urological operating theatres, make these procedures suitable for a large number of surgical purposes, some even unusual. Laparoscopy appears to be an increasingly valid alternative to traditional surgery, being minimally invasive, safe and effective. Availability of proper technological devices and experience in laparoscopic techniques allow a considerable reduction in post-operative pain, hospitalization and recovery times.
