usually causes trivial infections in the juvenile population. However, its extragenital presentation in adults is relatively rare. We present the case of a 64-year-old female suffering from poorly controlled diabetes and lower abdominal pain. CT scan showed a large tumorous expansion of the lower abdomen, mimicking malignancy. Perioperative findings revealed a large adnexal tumor adhering to the rectum. In addition, the histological examination uncovered a mixed inflammatory infiltrate with multiple surrounding eggs of the parasite and granulomatous reaction in the left fallopian tube and left ovarian cortex. As reported in our article, the rare ectopic sites of in postmenopause may become a diagnostic challenge.
通常在青少年人群中引起轻微感染。然而,其在成人中的生殖器外表现相对罕见。我们报告一例64岁女性病例,该患者患有控制不佳的糖尿病并伴有下腹部疼痛。CT扫描显示下腹部有巨大肿瘤样扩张,类似恶性肿瘤。术中发现一个巨大附件肿瘤附着于直肠。此外,组织学检查发现左侧输卵管和左侧卵巢皮质有混合性炎性浸润,周围有多个寄生虫卵及肉芽肿反应。正如我们文章中所报道的,绝经后寄生虫罕见的异位部位可能成为诊断难题。
