概要 OBJECTIVE:To explore diaphragmatic lesions that are potentially associated with catamenial pneumothorax by using an advanced flexible laparoscope with wide optic angle.DESIGN:Case report.SETTING:University hospital.PATIENT(S):A 30-year-old woman who was scheduled for thoracoscopic surgery because of recurrent right-sided catamenial pneumothorax.INTERVENTION(S):The peritoneal surface of the diaphragm was explored with an advanced flexible laparoscope that was equipped with a charge-coupled device on the tip, concurrently with thoracoscopic surgery.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):Lesions associated with endometriosis on the peritoneal surface of the posterior diaphragm abutting the posterior abdominal wall and liver.RESULT(S):When the flexible laparoscope was inserted via an umbilical trocar and the peritoneal surface of the right-sided diaphragm was explored, guided by illumination from the thoracoscope, scattered specific lattice lesions and fenestrations were identified in the central tendon of the posterior diaphragm, a region that cannot be visualized with the conventional rigid laparoscope.CONCLUSION(S):By using the flexible laparoscope, endometriotic lesions potentially related to catamenial pneumothorax were identified on the posterior diaphragm.
