This video is a demonstration of technique required for mobilization of the right diaphragm to allow access for severe diaphragm endometriosis surgery. This surgery is directed towards surgeons perfoming these types of surgeries, with significant technical explanation, though it may be of interest to patients with diaphragmatic endometriosis as well. Submitted for review for the AAGL 2020 Meeting, November 2020. Dr. Fogelson is a gynecologic surgeon in practice at Northwest Endometriosis and Pelvic Surgery in Portland, OR. We offer high level care for all types of endometriosis, including severe cases involving bowel, diaphragm, thoracic cavity, and abdominal wall disease. Please call 503-715-1377 for clinical consultation.

This video demonstrates technique for dissection of rectovaginal endometriosis, including a description of what I call the "Reverse Horseshoe" technique for separating the rectum and sigmoid from adherent cervix/vagina in cases of high grade bowel endometriosis. We also demonstrate the use of an EEA stapler to do an anterior disc resection of the rectal / sigmoid wall. This video is created with the intention of demonstrating these techniques to other surgeons, but will also be of of interest to women with high grade endometriosis who seek to better understand the surgical techniques that are involved in removing such disease. -------- Dr Fogelson is a Physician in practice at Northwest Endometriosis and Pelvic Surgery in Portland, OR.
