RARE PRESENTATION OF LARGE BILATERAL HYDROSALPINX WITH ACUTE TORSION
Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 14
Abstract
Torsion of Bilateral hydrosalpinx of the fallopian tube is a rare case present with lower abdominal pain1, 2, 4. Early diagnosis of such cases is crucial because it allows the possibility of salvage surgery and the prevention of irreversible vascular damage. However, diagnosis is rarely made before surgery due to non-specific clinical and imaging features. It was misdiagnosed as a multiloculated ovarian cyst at a local hospital. Familiarity with fallopian tube disease and the imaging appearances of both the normal and abnormal fallopian tube is crucial for optimal diagnosis and management in emergent as well as ambulatory settings.3,4.
