Abstract
Objective: To demonstrate how to treat bladder and ureteral deep pelvic endometriosis using a
laparoscopic approach with partial cystectomy and resection and end-to-end anastomosis of the ureter.
Design: A step-by-step explanation of the surgery using video, approved by the local Institutional
Review Board
Setting: University Hospital of Strasbourg, France. A 27-year-old nulliparous woman with severe
endometriosis stage 4 (AFS-R score >40) of the bladder and left ureter. On pelvic MRI, we found left
uretero-hydronephrosis induced by a 17mm endometriosis nodule. A JJ probe was placed on the left
ureter before the surgery because of the dilatation of the ureter and the decreased of renal function.
Interventions: During the exploration, we found an abdominal cavity free of adhesion. There
was an endometriosis implant in the bladder in front of the uterus and a large nodule of the
left uterosacral ligament that was compressing the ureter. In the first step, we made a section
of the round ligament, to perform anterior ureterolysis and progressive dissection of the
nodule surrounding the ureter. Once the nodule was resected, a tight stenosis was observed
at about 1 cm from the bladder. The vesico-uterine and the vesico-vaginal spaces were then
dissected to pass under the nodule to the vagina. We opened the dome of the bladder with
the thunderbeatTM (Olympus) and dissected the bladder to remove the transfixing nodule
while staying away from the ureters. The closure of the bladder was performed by 2 lateral
sutures and by a running suture of braided suture (V-LocTM) 2-0 with a good tightness
checked by a blue test. Ureteral resection was performed around the JJ probe in place to
remove the stenotic zone, then we performed a end-to-end anastomosis of the ureter by 4
sutures of monofilament (MonocrylTM) 4 -0 with a good anatomical result. Finally an
omentoplasty was fixed around the ureter by 2-0 monofilament suture (MonocrylTM). Post
operative course was uneventful. Foley catheter was let in place 10 days and JJ probe was
removed 6 weeks later. Operative time was 140 minutes. The step-by-step explanation
technique was simple with minimal operative difficulty and low rate of morbidity.

Conclusion: This video shows how deep urinary endometriosis can be performed
laparoscopically. Mastering suturing is essential to avoid complications.
