Cystic endosalpingiosis refers to the existence of heterotopic cystic müllerian tissue resembling structures of the fallopian tubes. We report a case of florid cystic endosalpingiosis discovered in a pregnant woman during a scheduled cesarean section and review the current knowledge of this disease. A 30-year-old woman with a twin pregnancy attended the hospital day unit at term. The first twin was in a breech presentation and a cesarean section was scheduled. During the procedure the uterine fundus and part of the body were seen completely seeded with multitude of cyst-like structures resembling hydatids of Morgagni. The immunohistochemistry analysis showed a positive expression for PAX8 (Box-8), CK7, and estrogen and progesterone receptors. The lesions did not disappear after pregnancy. Cystic endosalpingiosis should be always borne in mind, even in pregnancy, when it comes to making the differential diagnosis of a pelvic or systemic multicystic mass.
囊性输卵管内膜异位症是指存在类似输卵管结构的异位囊性苗勒管组织。我们报告了一例在剖宫产术中发现的孕妇患有严重囊性输卵管内膜异位症的病例,并回顾了关于该疾病的现有知识。一名怀有双胎的30岁女性足月时到医院日间病房就诊。第一个胎儿为臀位,计划行剖宫产术。手术过程中,可见子宫底部及部分子宫体完全布满了许多类似 Morgagni 氏囊肿的囊样结构。免疫组化分析显示PAX8(Box-8)、CK7以及雌激素和孕激素受体呈阳性表达。病变在妊娠后并未消失。即使在妊娠期间,当对盆腔或全身性多囊性肿物进行鉴别诊断时,也应始终牢记囊性输卵管内膜异位症。
