“Centers of excellence in endometriosis surgery” or “centers of excellence in endometriosis”Gynecological Surgery - Tập 7 - Trang 109-111 - 2010
Philippe R. Koninckx, Anastasia Ussia
Centers of excellent endometriosis surgery could improve the care of women with
endometriosis, especially if combined with control of the quality of the surgery
performed, e.g., through systematic taping of entire interventions. Centers of
excellence in endometriosis without emphasis on providing excellent surgery seem
of little value and could do more harm than good.

was treated successfully using a laparoscopic salpingectomy technique without
jeopardizing the intrauterine pregnancy.
Cervical ectopic pregnancy: surgical or medical treatment?Gynecological Surgery - Tập 4 - Trang 117-121 - 2006

Cervical pregnancies are one of the rarest forms of ectopic gestations. The
incidence of cervical ectopic pregnancies ranges between 1 in 1,000 to 95,000
gestations (Parente et al., Obstet Gynecol 62:79–82, 1983). Prior surgical
trauma, including dilatation and curettage of the cervix, has been identified as
one of the leading risk factors (Pisarska et al., Lancet 351:1115–1120, 1998;

In laparoscopy, specimens have to be removed from the abdominal cavity. If the
trocar opening or the vaginal outlet is insufficient to pass the specimen, the
specimen needs to be reduced. The power morcellator is an instrument with a fast
rotating cylindrical knife which aims to divide the tissue into smaller pieces
or fragments. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a press release in
