A solitary granuloma containing a gravid female pinworm was incidentally found in the fallopian tube of a 27 year old woman. On rare occasions, pinworms have been found outside the gastrointestinal tract, most frequently in the peritoneal cavity. The reported cases have been found at all levels of the female reproductive tract from the introitus to the fallopian tube. Thus, the hypothesis is supported that the worms reach the pelvic cavity via the genital tract. In addition, pinworm granulomas have also been found in the liver, lung, prostate and the renal pelvis. Awareness that such lesions may occur is important since the lesions may be interpreted as being malignant with subsequent unnecessary surgical intervention.
在一名27岁女性的输卵管中偶然发现了一个含有妊娠雌性蛲虫的孤立性肉芽肿。在罕见情况下，蛲虫已在胃肠道外被发现，最常见于腹腔。已报道的病例在女性生殖道从阴道口到输卵管的各个部位均有发现。因此，蠕虫通过生殖道进入盆腔腔这一假说得到了支持。此外，在肝脏、肺、前列腺和肾盂中也发现了蛲虫肉芽肿。认识到可能会出现此类病变很重要，因为这些病变可能被误诊为恶性病变，从而导致后续不必要的手术干预。
