Iatrogenic diaphragmatic injury during laparoscopy has necessitated intracorporeal suturing and occasionally thoracostomy tube placement. We describe a technique to repair the diaphragm quickly using a novel gelatin thrombin matrix. The matrix can be administered through a trocar or hand-assist device and can rapidly seal small injuries, obviating the need for formal suture repair. The presented case and technique should be considered in selected small diaphragmatic injuries.
