Abstract |
Resection of endometriosis nodules infiltrating the bladder is routinely performed by laparoscopy. However, laparoscopic resection may lead to inadvertent loss of healthy bladder tissue. Conversely, when bladder nodules are treated by cystoscopy alone, resection may be incomplete. A combined laparoscopic-cystoscopic approach allows safe and controlled resection. The video reports the procedure performed in a 33 year-old primipara who presented with a 40mm bladder nodule. The laparoscopic step is carried out by the gynecologist, who separates the bladder from the uterus and opens the vesico-vaginal space. Concomitantly, the urologist identifies and circumscribes the nodule's limits by cystoscopy. Then, the gynecologist identifies the circular incision previously performed, and completes the resection. The bladder defect is sutured. Early and mid-term postoperative outcomes were uneventful. In patients with large nodules of the bladder, combined laparoscopic-cystoscopic approach allows complete resection of endometriosis lesion, preserves healthy bladder tissue and avoids inadvertent injury of ureters.
