Endoscopic bladder repair during total modified laparoscopic hysterectomy. A case report.
Endoscopic repair was performed on a bladder laceration during total modified laparoscopic hysterectomy, with the vaginal cuff sutured to the cardinal and uterosacral ligaments. The patient underwent the hysterectomy for chronic pelvic pain. The endoscopic bladder laceration was repaired via laparoscopy, and the patient was discharged from the hospital on the second postoperative day with a catheter connected to a leg bag for drainage. Intravenous pyelogram with full bladder distention, which was performed two weeks after surgery, revealed no abnormality. The patient returned to her daily activities, including sex, within three weeks.
