Abstract

Ectopic pregnancy (EP), seen in approximately 1.3-2% of all pregnancies, is defined as the placement of the fertilized ovum outside of the uterine cavity and it is the most important cause of maternal morbidity and mortality in the first trimester. Tuba ovarian abscess (TOA) is a polymicrobial infection that can involve the ovary, fallopian tubes, and adherent organs, which is usually seen in 15% of women with pelvic inflammatory disease in the reproductive period. Here, we aimed to present a patient with three previous miscarriages in the last year, who was admitted to the emergency department with symptoms of recurrent abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, and who was diagnosed as having ectopic pregnancy and tubal ovarian abscess in examinations and tests. She recovered well after laparoscopic surgery. Diagnosis of both EP and TOA as early as possible and timely medical intervention are important in reducing maternal morbidity and mortality.

Özet

Tüm gebeliklerin yaklaşık % 1.3-2'sinde görülen ektopik gebelik (EG), fertilize yumurtanın uterin kavite dışına yerleşmesi olarak tanımlanır ve ilk trimesterdeki maternal morbidite ve mortalitenin en önemli nedenidir. Tubo-ovaryan abse (TOA), üreme döneminde pelvik inflamatuar hastalığı olan kadınların % 15'inde görülen yumurtalık, fallop tüpleri ve komşu organları tutabilen bir polimikrobiyal enfeksiyondur. Burada son bir yıl içinde daha önce üç düşük yapmış, tekrarlayan karın ağrısı ve vajinal kanama semptomları ile acil servise başvuran, muayene ve tetkiklerde ektopik gebelik ve tubo-ovaryan abse tanısı konulan bir hastayı sunmayı amaçladık. Olgu laparoskopik cerrahi sonrası iyileşmiştir. Hem EG hem de TOA'nın mümkün olduğu kadar kısa sürede teşhisi ve zamanında uygun tıbbi müdahale maternal morbidite ve mortaliteyi azaltmada önemlidir.
