Coliform pyosalpinx is a rare entity. We report a case that occurred three months after appendicectomy for gangrenous appendicitis. There follows a literature review on best practice for the treatment of pyosalpinx.
A seventeen year old girl presented with an acute abdomen three months after an appendicectomy for gangrenous appendicitis. Intraoperative findings were bilateral pyosalpinx treated by aspiration, saline and Betadine irrigation and intravenous antibiotics.
Microbiological analysis of the pus revealed Escherichia coli and anaerobes. Chlamydia and Candida were not isolated. This is the first known reported case of Coliform Pyosalpinx following appendicectomy. The best treatment does not necessarily involve salpingectomy especially in women of reproductive age where fertility may become compromised.
大肠埃希菌性输卵管积脓是一种罕见疾病。我们报告一例在坏疽性阑尾炎阑尾切除术后三个月发生的病例。随后对输卵管积脓的最佳治疗方法进行文献综述。
一名17岁女孩在坏疽性阑尾炎阑尾切除术后三个月出现急腹症。术中发现双侧输卵管积脓,采用穿刺抽吸、生理盐水和聚维酮碘冲洗及静脉使用抗生素进行治疗。
脓液的微生物分析显示有大肠埃希菌和厌氧菌。未分离出衣原体和念珠菌。这是已知阑尾切除术后发生大肠埃希菌性输卵管积脓的首例报道病例。最佳治疗不一定需要进行输卵管切除术,尤其是对育龄期女性而言,因为这可能会影响生育能力。
