Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery such as hysteroscopy has a low risk of complications. Infections, however, are more common in the presence of risk factors such as smoking, history of pelvic inflammatory disease, and endometriosis. We report the case of a patient who underwent operative hysteroscopy without immediate complications and was admitted 2 days later to the emergency department in a severe state of septic shock. With multiple organ failures requiring admission to an intensive care unit, the patient died despite extensive antibiotic therapy and vasoactive drugs. Ascending infection can be a potentially fatal complication of hysteroscopy, even in the absence of known risk factors.
诸如宫腔镜检查等微创妇科手术并发症风险较低。然而,在存在吸烟、盆腔炎病史和子宫内膜异位症等风险因素的情况下,感染更为常见。我们报告一例患者,该患者接受了宫腔镜手术,术后无即刻并发症,但在两天后因严重感染性休克被送入急诊科。由于出现多器官功能衰竭,患者需要入住重症监护病房,尽管接受了广泛的抗生素治疗和血管活性药物治疗,仍不幸死亡。上行性感染可能是宫腔镜检查的一种潜在致命并发症,即使在没有已知风险因素的情况下也是如此。
