The Manual on Operative Laparoscopy depicts several aspects of laparoscopic surgery with better understanding of the advances in technology and the corresponding training facilities. Some of the specific topics covered include the basic instruments in laparoscopy, laparoscopic ovarian drilling, surgical management of adenomyosis, outcome of laparoscopic myomectomy, etc. 3D laparoscopy is found to overcome problems of 2D laparoscopy by providing excellent depth perception, definition, and resolution.
