Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Endometriosis is a common gynecological condition requiring surgical intervention.
  • Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive approach for treating extensive endometriosis.
  • The cul-de-sac is a common site for deep infiltrating endometriosis.

Observation:

  • A 19-year-old woman underwent laparoscopic resection for extensive cul-de-sac endometriosis.
  • A 3-minute abdominal deflation in Trendelenburg position was performed post-resection.
  • Intraoperative bleeding was reevaluated after deflation.

Findings:

  • The patient experienced delayed postoperative hemorrhage 7 hours after the initial surgery.
  • Hemorrhage necessitated a return to the operating room for surgical intervention.

  • The specific cause of delayed hemorrhage requires further investigation.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the potential for delayed hemorrhage following laparoscopic endometriosis resection.
    • Careful postoperative monitoring is crucial, even after initial intraoperative hemostasis.
    • Further research into risk factors and prevention of delayed hemorrhage is warranted.
