Introduction: In order to monitor the patient's condition and timely behavior, it is essential in nursing practice to know the complications of laparoscopic procedures.
Some authors divide the complications of laparoscopic surgery into two groups:
• complications related to laparoscopy;
• complications related to specific surgical interventions.
According to Perugini and Calari, complications can be grouped into the following three categories:
• complications at the access point;
• physiological complications of the pneumoperitoneum;
• complications of the operational procedure.
Material and Methods: The methods used were analysis of documentary sources for the period September–October 2020 and a documentary method.
Conclusion: All complications discussed in the report are possible, which changes the focus of nursing care postoperatively. There is a big difference in the period of care and their application, when there is a complication of septic origin or a combination of several different ones. Therefore, nursing care should be planned individually and after information from the course of the operation and the patient's condition during admission to the surgical sector and should be changed, where necessary, in accordance with changes in the patient's condition.
