Abstract

Fibromas are the most common benign solid tumors of the ovary. Clinically, they are asymptomatic and preoperative diagnosis is often difficult. In this paper we report a case of fibroma as a cause of fever of unknown origin (FUO). A 26-year-old woman referred to our hospital with a one-month history of intermittent fever. Ultrasonography as well as pelvic computed tomography scans showed a hypoechoic appearance in the right adnexal region which was diagnosed as pyosalpinx, in the light of clinical setting. Pus drainage was then planned but 3cc of serous material was drained from the adnexal mass with ultrasound-guide. Despite antibiotic therapy, her fever continued. She had a comprehensive work-up for FUO, including rheumatologic, infectious, and malignant etiologies. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the pelvis showed two well defined ovarian lesions, which were suggestive of an ovarian fibroma. MRI find- ings that are suggestive of gynecological infectious diseases were not detected. Then laparoscopy was scheduled. The patient responded well to surgery and the fever resolved after surgery. She is now in the ninth postoperative month and still has no fever. Ovarian fibromas, Fever of unknown origin, Magnetic resonance imaging

Özet

Fibromlar overin en sık görülen iyi huylu solid tümörüdür. Klinik olarak asemptomatiktirler ve ameliyat öncesi tanı genellikle zordur. Bu yazıda nedeni bilinmeyen ateş (NBA) sebebi olarak bir overyan fibrom olgusu sunulmaktadır. 26 yaşındaki kadın hasta 1 aydır aralıklı devam eden ateş ne- deniyle hastanemize sevk edildi. Ultrasonografi ve pelvik bilgi- sayarlı tomografi taramaları sağ adneksiyal alanda bir hipo- ekoik görünüm gösterdi ve klinik bulguların ışığında hastaya pyosalpinx tanısı konuldu. Püy drenajı planlandı ama ultraso- nografi eşliğinde adneksal kitleden 3 cc seröz materyal drene edildi. Antibiyotik tedavisine rağmen hastanın ateşi devam etti. Romatolojik, enfeksiyöz ve malign etyolojiler dahil, NBA için kapsamlı tetkikler yapıldı. Pelvisin manyetik rezonans görüntü- leme (MRG) taramaları ovaryan fibromu düşündüren iki iyi ta- nımlanmış ovaryan lezyon gösterdi. MRG’da jinekolojik enfek- siyon hastalıkları düşündüren bulgular tespit edilmedi, Sonra laparoskopi planlandı. Hasta ameliyata iyi yanıt verdi ve ateş ameliyattan sonra düzeldi. Hastamız şimdi ameliyat sonrası dokuzuncu ayda ve hala ateşi yok.
