Abstract:
The article presents a comparative estimation of laparoscopy and laparocentesis in diagnostics of abdominal traumas. Based on an analysis of results of 20 laparoscopies and 861 laparocenteses the author makes a conclusion that both laparoscopy and laparocentesis have high informative value in diagnostics of abdominal traumas, their diagnostic reliability having no substantial distinctions. Laparocentesis takes 5-6 times less time than laparoscopy.
