Laparoscopic treatment of a large cystic adenomyosis of the uterus: A case report.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

We describe a patient with a large cystic adenomyosis of the uterus who was treated by a laparoscopic approach.

Case presentation

A 38-year-old woman presented with dysmenorrhoea for 4 months. A 104 mm × 55 mm × 60 mm cystic mass was detected on the right side of the posterior wall of the uterus by ultrasound. Laparoscopy was performed, during which a bumpy mass was discovered protruding from the surface of the uterine myometrium. Both ovaries were normal. When the wall of the cystic mass was opened, chocolate-colored fluid was visible. The cyst was completely removed, and postoperative histopathology confirmed a cystic adenomyosis. One month later, the uterus was found to be normal on ultrasound.

Discussion

Endometriosis is a common disease in women and is divided into ovarian endometrioid cysts, superficial endometriosis, deep infiltrating endometriosis and other special types according to pathological characteristics. As a special type of endometriosis, the incidence of cystic adenomyosis is low, and its specific incidence is unknown. Cystic adenomyosis is clinically characterized by the appearance of one or more cystic cavities between the walls of the uterine muscles.

Conclusion

Laparoscopic surgery is an effective method for the diagnosis and treatment of large cystic masses in the uterine myometrium.

Ultrasound-Guided Transvaginal Aspiration and Sclerotherapy for Uterine Cystic Adenomyosis: Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:BackgroundUterine cystic adenomyosis is a very rare type of adenomyosis which can be easily misdiagnosed in clinical practice. In the past, cases have been mostly treated with surgical resection of the uterine lesion.Case presentationWe report the case of a 25-year-old woman who presented with severe dysmenorrhea for more than 1 year. Physical examination showed that the uterus was enlarged. The transvaginal ultrasound showed a cystic mass of about 5.0 × 3.6 × 3.6 cm in the posterior myometrium, with dense echo spots and no blood flow signal in the cystic part. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) indicated hemorrhages within the cystic mass, suggesting the possibility of uterine cystic adenomyosis. The lower abdominal pain and severe dysmenorrhea were not alleviated after a 6-month trial of oral contraceptives. Subsequently, she underwent ultrasound-guided transvaginal aspiration and sclerotherapy for uterine cystic adenomyosis. Approximately 90 mL of chocolate-colored fluid was aspirated from the mass and 20 mL of lauromacrogol was injected in the cyst. The reduction rates of the mass 3 and 12 months after the procedure were 92.01 and 99.10%, respectively. Her dysmenorrhea completely resolved. One and half year after the operation, she had a successful pregnancy and gave birth to a healthy baby through vagina.ConclusionThe rare entity of uterine cystic adenomyosis can be treated safely and effectively by ultrasound-guided transvaginal aspiration and sclerotherapy.

Spontaneous cystic biloma after laparoscopic cholecystectomy treated conservatively: A case report.

Project description:IntroductionBiloma forms due to common bile duct (CBD) injury as a laparoscopic cholecystectomy complication. Spontaneous localized biloma forming cysts in the biliary duct is rare.Presentation of caseWe report a 47-year-old male with complaint of a painful lump in the upper abdomen two months after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) found a large epigastric cyst mass, without any signs of CBD injury. Patient was managed with percutaneous drainage in the outpatient clinic and kept the contents of the drainage bag for evaluation. After two months follow-up the outcome was favorable.DiscussionBiloma forming cysts is a very rare complication post laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Biloma most common occurs as free fluid in the abdominal cavity. Clinical diagnostics, intraoperative historical evaluation and support with MRCP may determine the treatment options. Decision to manage with non-operative procedures by percutaneous drainage and evaluations of the patient in the outpatient clinic had a favorable outcome.ConclusionPost laparoscopic biloma cysts are a very rare case. Management with percutaneous drainage in an outpatient clinic and ambulatory drainage is an effective and safe procedure.

New surgical technique of laparoscopic resection of adenomyosis under real-time intraoperative ultrasound elastography guidance: A case report.

Project description:Detecting adenomyosis in the myometrium is a challenge since it is infiltrative with ill-defined margins and can be often confused with uterine fibroids. However, recent advances, such as ultrasound elastography, have enabled its detection in the myometrium, thereby facilitating its accurate diagnosis. We report our experience of performing complete laparoscopic resection of adenomyosis under real-time ultrasound elastography guidance in a 32-year-old woman who underwent laparoscopic adenomyomectomy following severe dysmenorrhea and heavy menstrual bleeding. Real-time ultrasound elastography was also utilized intraoperatively to detect residual adenomyosis. Complete adenomyosis resection and uterine reconstruction were achieved. Follow-up magnetic resonance imaging was conducted to confirm successful uterine reconstruction. The patient recovered rapidly with no complications. Intraoperative elastography-guided laparoscopic adenomyomectomy was feasible and effective in completely removing adenomyotic lesions.

Fluorescent ureteral catheters in laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer with invasion of the uterus: A case report.

Project description:IntroductionResection of the uterus is required in some cases of colorectal cancer with invasion of the uterus. Localisation of the ureters to prevent ureteral injuries is important during resection of advanced colorectal cancer and combined resection of the uterus.Case presentationWe report a case of a woman in her 80s with rectal cancer with invasion of the uterus. She presented with appetite loss and lower abdominal pain. She was hospitalised after being diagnosed with intestinal obstruction due to rectal cancer. Colonoscopy revealed a tumor involving 100% of the circumference of the rectosigmoid colon, and imaging showed rectal cancer with invasion of the uterus and a giant uterine fibroid. Fluorescent ureteral catheters were placed bilaterally under cystoscopy, and laparoscopic anterior rectal resection, combined hysterectomy, and bilateral adnexectomy were performed 1 day later. Near-infrared visualisation of these catheters enabled safe release of the surrounding tissues from the uterus.Clinical discussionSurgical treatment of rectal cancer with invasion of the uterus is not standardised and requires more complicated procedures, which are associated with a high risk of ureteral injury. Fluorescent ureteral catheters allow visualisation of the course of the ureters without releasing them, thereby enabling safe surgery.ConclusionIn fluorescence-guided surgery for rectal cancer, fluorescent ureteral catheters are particularly useful in patients with suspected invasion of other organs.

A case report of laparoscopic surgery for Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome with preservation of functional primordial uterus.

Project description:BackgroundIn the past, the primary treatment for MRKH syndrome (Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome) with a functional primordial uterus was surgical removal of the functional primordial uterus. In rare instances, the endometrium of the functional primordial uterus is well developed, and surgical preservation of the functional primordial uterus provides the possibility of preserving reproductive function for these patients.Case presentationA 14-year-old female was diagnosed with type I MRKH syndrome with a functional primordial uterus through physical examination and imaging investigations. We freed the functional primordial uterus through laparoscopic surgery and excised a portion of the lower myometrium to create an outlet at a lower uterine segment, which we then intermittently anastomosed to the tip of the artificial vagina. The patient recovered well after the surgery, and a re-examination showed no significant abnormalities.ConclusionWe were successful in preserving the functional primordial uterus using laparoscopic surgery in a patient with MRKH syndrome and connecting it to an artificial vagina through reconstructive surgery to ensure unobstructed menstrual drainage and preserve the reproductive potential of the patient.

Case report: Laparoscopic approach in the treatment of presacral lipoma.

Project description:Retrorectal lipoma, as well as other retrorectal tumours, is a relatively rare disorder. Retrorectal tumours accounted for 1 in 40,000 hospital admissions. We present a case of retrorectal lipoma, 15 cm × 10 cm × 8 cm in size, treated by the laparoscopic approach. The preoperative magnetic resonance imaging visualised a mass, 12 cm × 6.7 cm × 8.6 cm in diameter, in the retrorectal space, spreading toward the left obturator foramen. Surgery was indicated due to exclude malignant process certainly, because it is difficult to differentiate lipoma from low-grade liposarcoma on non invasive imaging. Laparoscopic extirpation of the tumour was performed. The overall operative time was 80 min. The diagnosis of lipoma was established on histological examination. The patient was discharged from hospital on the 2nd day after the surgery. We have found this minimally invasive operation to be an effective and well-tolerated treatment option, determined by the experience of the surgeon.

Laparoscopic resection of large oncocytoma with metaplastic ossification: Case report and video.

Project description:Renal oncocytoma (RO) represents about 7% of kidney tumors. They usually behave in a benign fashion, with a slow-growth rate. Patients are often asymptomatic and the tumour is found incidentally on imaging. Due to its wide variation of presentations and multiple radiological findings it is difficult to differentiate RO from renal-cell carcinomas. Interpretation of the images in the appropriate clinical context is crucial and supports the surgeon to avoid aggressive surgical procedures in favor of a nephron-sparing approach, whenever possible. We report a case of a 71-year-old female patient with a large calcified RO which was resected laparoscopically.

Expression of pluripotency markers in the bovine uterus with adenomyosis.

Project description:BackgroundAdenomyosis is a proliferative uterine dysfunction with unknown aetiology. One possible mechanism of its development involves disturbances in stem cell differentiation in uterine tissue. Previously, we identified pluripotent/multipotent cells in the bovine uterus, therefore our present study focused on determining expression of pluripotency markers, NANOG, OCT4 and SOX2, in bovine adenomyotic tissues and cells.FindingsImmunolocalisation revealed protein expression of NANOG, OCT4 and SOX2 in both normal and adenomyotic uteri. mRNA expression for NANOG and OCT4 was increased in tissues obtained from uteri with adenomyosis compared to controls, but at the protein level there were no significant differences. mRNA expression for all three pluripotency markers was higher in myometrial cells isolated from uteri with adenomyotic lesions than in those isolated from normal uteri. The protein level of NANOG and SOX2 was decreased in stromal cells from adenomyotic tissues, whereas the level of OCT4 and SOX2 was increased in myometrial cells obtained from dysfunctional uteri.ConclusionsThe results indicate significant changes in expression of pluripotency markers in adenomyotic compared to normal uteri, which suggest the involvement of uterine stem cells in adenomyosis.

Mycoplasma hominis brain abscess following uterus curettage: a case report.

Project description:IntroductionMycoplasma hominis is mostly known for causing urogenital infections. However, it has rarely been described as an agent of brain abscess.Case presentationWe describe a case of M. hominis brain abscess in a 41-year-old Caucasian woman following uterus curettage. The diagnosis was obtained by 16S rDNA amplification, cloning and sequencing from the abscess pus, and confirmed by a specifically designed real-time polymerase chain reaction assay.ConclusionsFindings from our patient's case suggest that M. hominis should be considered as a potential agent of brain abscess, especially following uterine manipulation.
