Peritoneoscopy and culdoscopy were first introduced in the second
edition of TeLinde's Operative Gynecology in 1953. TeLinde noted,
"In many instances we find peritoneoscopy to be a useful procedure.
Nevertheless it often left something to be desired." During the
subsequent four decades, enormous progress has allowed the
expansion of the application of laparoscopy and hysteroscopy
throughout gynecol- ogy. Thus, it is appropriate and quite useful
to have a text devoted solely to this rapidly advancing specialty.
In its second edition, the text Practical Manual of Operative
Laparoscopy and Hys- teroscopy is a complete and honest overview of
the field providing the reader with a critical appraisal of the
current literature on technique, development, and long- term
follow-up. Refreshingly, the authors include not only the American
experi- ence but also advances from Europe and Asia. Ricardo Azziz
and Ana Alvarez Murphy have carefully organized the text into
general concepts and laparoscopic and hysteroscopic operative
techniques. The editors have selected authors of national and
international stature to prepare chap- ters in their areas of
expertise. The edited text carefully analyzes the advantages and
disadvantages of each operative technique so as to allow readers
insight as to the proper place for a particular endoscopic
technique in their surgical practices.
