Summary

For better hemostasis in cases of operative pelviscopy in 60 patients Ornithine-8 Pitressin (POR 8) was applied locally as a vasoconstrictive agent in quantities of up to 50 ml at a concentration of 0.05 IU/ml. From the broad spectrum of indications for operative pelviscopy, the following procedures employing local application of a 5 % POR 8 solution to produce intraoperative ischemia are described:

Myoma enucleation, longitudinal salpingotomy with conception product extraction in the conservative treatment of a tubal pregnancy, ovarian cystectomy and salpingostomy.

The tolerance was optimal, no side effects were observed
