<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p> Background: At present, the laparoscopic intervention in retroperitoneal primitive tumors, abscesses, haematomas and retroperitoneal effusions is still a challenge.

Results: For 2010 we extracted 23 cases (39,2% classical interventions), for 2011-21 patients (31,4% classic) and for 2012 -18 cases (29,4% classical interventions). According to the type of the disease, 30 classical interventions were performed for tumoral formations and 21 interventions for non-tumoral formations. Laparoscopic tumoral cases included three tumors and a retroperitoneal metastasis,while the non-tumoral were represented by 7 urohaematic effusions as a result of percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedures. Conclusions: Laparoscopic surgery of retroperitoneal lesions is minimally invasive, the postoperative evolution of patients is favorable, without major complications.. Classical intervention of retroperitoneal lesions is indicated in large haematomas, abscesses, and big invasive tumors with vascular factor which does not allow the use of laparoscopic technique</p></abstract>
