Intraperitoneal catheter drainage of lymphocele: an outpatient procedure.

Laparoscopic marsupialization of lymphocele carries 13% recurrence rate, 6% injury to other organs, 12% omentoplasty, 6% open conversion and 1.8 average hospital days. A novel, simplified technique of intraperitoneal catheter drainage of lymphocele is described.
