Photographic documentation of peritoneoscopic findings is technically well developped, relatively easy to perform, and should be used, as a routine procedure. There are different methods available. The polaroid method is the method of choice, when a paper copy with adequate technical quality is needed at once; this is especially useful for the pathologist, who may evaluate polaroid copies along with bioptic material. The surgeon as well may preoperatively get some visual information if emergency surgery is to be done. The endoscopist is responsible for the quality of the picture himself; a photo laboratory is not needed. Own results and technical procedures are demonstrated.
