TV laparoscopy. A new dimension in visualization and documentation of pelvic pathology.

A new miniature color TV camera is employed routinely during laparoscopy. It offers the following advantages: a binocular view from a convenient distance; a significantly enlarged image; easy observation of minute changes; observation of the procedure by the entire team, thereby permitting faster coordinated manipulations involving the assistant; provision of simultaneous, permanent records; and the method of choice in teaching.
