Abstract
During a 3-yr period, 2650 cases of diagnostic laparoscopy were performed on selected infertility patients in a training program on gynecologic laparoscopy at hospitals in Egypt, the Sudan and Saudi Arabia. Most of the procedures were performed by physicians who either never performed the procedure or had no significant experience with it. The laparoscopic findings, complications and problems encountered are presented. With emphasis on equipment care and handling, careful patient selection and observation of simple precautions during and after the operation, the procedure can be safely included in the training program of residents in obstetrics and gynecology.
