The majority of the tasks were completed in a shorter time using 3D LVS compared to 2D LVS. The subjective Likert-scale ratings from each group also demonstrated a clear preference for 3D LVS. New 3D LVS has the potential to improve the learning curve, and reduce the operating time and error rate during the performances of laparoscopic surgeons. Our results suggest that the new-generation 3D HD LVS will be helpful for surgeons in laparoscopy (Clinical Trial ID: NCT01799577, Protocol ID: BEHGynobs-4).

Recent literature indicates that 3-D laparoscopy vision system needs to be utilized more often and a higher number of ex vivo and in vivo studies have to be conducted. Furthermore, we believe that the prevalent problems encountered during laparoscopy can be overcome by the development of real-time vision devices and the appropriate training of the laparoscopists. 3-D high definition laparoscopic vision system will help to improve surgical performance and outcome of patients undergoing gynecological minimal invasive surgery.

Today, the adoption of minimal invasive gynecologic procedures is expanding their routine use in clinical practice. Until recently, a diameter of 8 cm was the recommended maximal size for laparoscopic removal of fibroids. However, robot-assisted laparoscopy improved the capacity and the feasibility of the many gynecologic procedures. Here, we report a video of robotic myomectomy of a huge myoma. (

We report a combined intra-uterine and unruptured tubal pregnancy following ovulation induction by clomiphene citrate (CC) and timed intercourse. The diagnosis of heterotopic pregnancy (HP) is the major problem until occurrence of tubal rupture. Because HP is a life-threatening condition, the diagnosis should be made as soon as possible. In a spontaneous conception, HP is a rare event. The risk of HP significantly increases after ovulation induction. Clomiphene itself could be associated with a high HP rate. We present a case with normally developing intra-uterine singleton pregnancy successfully managed by salpingectomy of synchronous tubal pregnancy following ovulation induction by CC and a review of the literature.
