Pneumothorax is an uncommon but potentially serious complication that can occur during laparoscopic procedures. A patient under-going laparoscopic cholecystectomy developed an 80% pneumothorax during the course of the procedure and required chest tube insertion. She then underwent an uneventful recovery. The etiology of this complication as well as methods for avoiding this problem have been reviewed. Because of the potential serious nature of this complication, it is imperative that the surgeon be aware of the possibility and implement appropriate immediate therapy.
