Abstract:
[Summary] This paper reports a postmenopausal woman with a rare florid cystic endosalpingosis presenting as an ovarian cyst, with many cystic lesions in the pelvis.She had chronic pelvic pain and ultrasound diagnosed of multiple cystic lesions in the pelvis. Not being aware of this rare condition of endosalpingiosis,she was laparoscopically managed successfully when the condition was diagnosed at the time of operation.There are only a few reports in the literature presenting florid cystic endosalpingiosis as ovarian or pelvic mass.This paper would not only highlight this uncommon presentation,it also raises issues for discussion relating to pre-operative diagnosis,laparoscopic appearance,pathological features and the current practice of routine salpingectomy in high risk patients in order to reduce high grade serous ovarian neoplasms.
