Abstract
BACKGROUND: Complications of operative laparoscopy and laparoscopic hysterectomy were once repaired by laparotomy. Their laparoscopic repair still offers challenges, most especially in the presence of inflammation, scarring, and tissue distortion. This report presents a new application, under high-risk conditions, of a simple and effective method for repair of inadvertent cystotomy.
CASE: A 29-year-old woman undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy for a vaginal mass experienced an incidental bladder injury in the context of a retained foreign body, extensive inflammatory changes, and scarring. A novel use of a standard laparoscopic tool produced a rapid, effective bladder repair.
CONCLUSION: Simple and effective cystotomy repair is possible even under extremely complex conditions.
