Changes in hemostatic mechanisms associated with operative laparoscopy.

A 19-year-old woman underwent laparoscopic resection of extensive endometriosis of the cul-de-sac. At completion of surgery the abdomen was deflated for 3 minutes with the patient still in Trendelenburg position, before she was reexamined for intraoperative bleeding. The patient was taken back to surgery 7 hours postoperatively to arrest hemorrhage.

Unrecognized bladder perforation during operative laparoscopy.

During operative laparoscopy in a 42-year-old woman, 12-mm trocar lacerations occurred through anterior and posterior walls of the bladder but were not recognized. This case demonstrates important issues related to predicting, avoiding, detecting, and treating bladder trauma associated with laparoscopic surgery. It also indicates that some classic warning signs of accidental cystotomy may be absent or delayed in appearance.
