laparoscopy, pneumoperitoneumAbstract
Laparoscopy is a procedure of examining the abdominal cavity and its contents with an illuminated telescope. Diagnostic laparoscopy is at present being utilized on a large scale in humans as well as in animals and has led to considerable advances in the
diagnosis and management of fertility. For exploration and evaluation of infertility, laparoscopy is considered an essential step and
a standard procedure and offers an excellent way through direct visualization to clarify the hidden pathology. Laparoscopy is used
as a gold standard method for quite a variety of gynecological conditions especially in humans. The present review was written to
record the use of laparoscopy as a diagnostic tool especially in bovine reproduction.
