In a review of the literature the authors describe the complications encountered during gynecological laparoscopy, insisting on the preparation phase, the conversion to laparotomy and the death cases. Vascular, digestive and urinary lesions, as well as anesthetic difficulties are discussed, aiming at a better prevention. Early recognition of the problem is an important prognostic factor for these patients.
