Laparoscopically assisted cervical canalization and neovaginoplasty in a woman with cervical atresia and vaginal aplasia
Cervical atresia is a Müllerian duct system anomaly, and it is often associated with vaginal aplasia. We report the case of a 17-year-old girl who presented with primary amenorrhea and cyclical abdominal pain, and was diagnosed with cervical atresia and vaginal aplasia that were treated laparoscopically. Laparoscopically assisted cervical canalization and neovaginoplasty were performed to relieve dysmenorrhea and allow for sexual intercourse and fertility. We did not use a bowel segment, skin, or peritoneum as a graft for the neovaginoplasty. To prevent adhesions and promote epithelialization, we used an estrogen-containing cream. Moreover, we did not use a vaginal mold. The patient is free of cervical stenosis and able to have intercourse. Long-term follow-up is necessary to ensure a future pregnancy and childbirth
A case of paraovarian serous cystadenofibroma that showed a malignant potential in image inspection
A case of bilateral tubal pregnancy
Bilateral tubal pregnancy is very rare and occurs in only 1 out of every 200,000 spontaneous pregnancies. In this case, a 29-year-old woman with a history of primary infertility underwent treatment with human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG)-human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and became pregnant. A gestational sac (GS) was not detected in the uterus and transvaginal ultrasonography (USG) revealed GS with fetal heartbeat in the left adnexa at 7 weeks and 6 days of gestation. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery and ultimately, bilateral tubal pregnancy was diagnosed. Consequently, bilateral fallopian tube resection was performed. Afterwards, she conceived by assisted reproductive technology (ART) and delivered vaginally. This case suggests that even if a GS is found in one fallopian tube by USG, it is important to evaluate the other fallopian tube carefully.
