ABSTRACT
A 17-year-old male was admitted to our hospital because of strong abdominal pain. His symptoms gradually worsened even after hospitalization, and contrast computed tomography (CT) revealed hemorrhage in the abdominal cavity. Interventional radiology (IVR) was performed to identify the bleeding site. No obvious source of bleeding was identifiable on IVR, so we opted to perform laparoscopic examination and hemostasis. The intraperitoneal finding was hematoma in the omentum, and omentectomy was performed for idiopathic omental hemorrhage because there was no history of trauma. The postoperative course was good and the patient was discharged after postoperative day 4. Performing laparoscopic surgery for omental hemorrhage facilitated minimally invasive treatment with a short hospital stay.
