Lymphocele formation, a common complication of pelvic surgery, can produce considerable morbidity. Treatment is problematic, with no single procedure considered optimal. We recently treated a 67-year-old man with a symptomatic lymphocele by laparoscopic internal marsupialization. Total operative time was 45 min, and the patient was discharged home the same day with minimal need for pain medications. Total resolution of the symptoms occurred within 24 h. In comparison to other methods compiled and analyzed from the literature, this highly effective, minimally invasive procedure offers a significant advantage to the patient.
