Accessory cavitated uterine malformation (ACUM) is a commonly misdiagnosed Mullerian anomaly characterized by the presence of a cavitated, well circumscribed lesion in an otherwise normal uterus showing presence of endometrial gland and stromal components. Commonly presenting as recurrent abdominal pain with dysmenorrhea in young females, their management is often delayed due to misdiagnosis on imaging. Here, we present the case of Accessory cavitated uterine malformation (ACUM) in a 21-year-old nulliparous female presenting with complaints of chronic abdominal pain with periodic dysmenorrhea who was managed with laparotomic excision of the cavity.
副腔隙性子宫畸形(ACUM)是一种常被误诊的苗勒管异常,其特征是在其他方面正常的子宫内存在一个有腔隙、边界清晰的病变,该病变有子宫内膜腺体和间质成分。ACUM在年轻女性中通常表现为反复腹痛伴痛经,由于影像学误诊,其治疗往往被延误。在此,我们报告一例21岁未生育女性的副腔隙性子宫畸形(ACUM)病例,该患者主诉慢性腹痛伴周期性痛经,通过剖腹手术切除腔隙进行治疗。
