Endometrioma is a common clinical condition, but cases in which an episiotomy scaris present are, however, rare: only two cases have been reported in obstetric journals, and one other in a radiologic journal. All three were in English. We encountered a case in which a solitary endometrioma was present in the perineal region beneath an episiotomy scar. An irregularly marginated hypoechoic mass was revealed by US, and a discrete homogeneous enhancing mass by CT.

Recently, water birth - labor and/or delivery under warm water - is acceptable and natural to many foreign countries as a method of gentle birth. Although some limitations after water birth were reported, a recent international conference explored many of the issuses and indicated the potential scale and the advantages for its inclusion among the options for labor and delivery under water. We experienced a case of water birth who underwent labor and delivery under water. She delivered normal healthy female baby without conventional episiotomy. No obstetrical ans fetal complications were observed during entire procedure of water birth. So, we report this case with brief review of the literatures.

Endometriosis in the episiotomy scar following vaginal delivery is one of the very rare condition among the extrapelvic endometriosis. We have experienced two cases of endometriosis in the episiotomy scar following vaginal delivery. We report two cases with a brief review of the concerned literatures.

5.Efficacy of cold magnesium sulfate saturated pad in nursing care after episiotomy
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;510(4):75-76
Study on 410 pregnant women had babies at Obstetric Department, Sa Dec General Hospital between March and August 2002, who underwent episiotomy or had perineal laceration, followed by swelling, edema, and painful sutures. All participants were divided into 2 groups: group of women had born babies at even dates were treated by 25% magnesium sulfate cold solution, and group of women had born babies at odd dates treated by cold placebo pad. Results: magnesium sulfate solution has endosmotic effect, leads to reduce swelling and edema. Pain relief effects were similar between 2 groups but magnesium sulfate cold solution was likely to have faster improvement in perineal edema and urination. Using cold magnesium sulfate saturated pad for nursing care after episiotomy is simple, easy method and has fast effects.

Endometriosis is defined as the abnormal growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity, but in rare cases may also occur on the skin. Cutaneous endometriosis frequently develops at the site of a prior abdominal or pelvic procedure, although apparent spontaneous occurrence has been reported. We present a case of non-symptomatic, cutaneous endometriosis in the episiotomy scar. The patient had no evidence of concurrent pelvic endometriosis.

Endometriosis at the site of episiotomy scar following vaginal delivery and abdominal scar following cesarean section are rare conditions among the extrapelvic endometriosis implantation. We have experienced five cases of extrapelvic endometriosis : four cases at the site of abdominal scar following cesarean section, and one case at the site of episiotomy scar following vaginal delivery. We report the five cases with brief review of the concerned literature.

Scar endometriosis is one of the rare conditions among the extrapelvic endometriosis, but it often occurs after pelvic operation and episiotomy. Four cases of scar endometriosis following Cesarean section and episiotomy were exp- erienced and treated with complete surgical excision. Therefore we reported these cases with concerned literatures.

9.Pudendal Nerve Damage and Its Recovery in Vaginal Delivers.
Journal of the Korean Society of Coloproctology 1997;13(1):63-70
We performed anorectal physiologic studies to evaluate the pelvic floor musculature and its innervation in 73 pregnant women(35 primiparous, 38 multiparous) who had been recruited into a study of pudendal nerve damage and its recovery in vaginal delivery as part of a prospective investigation. These women had all delivered by vaginal route with pros terolateral episiotomy. Pudendal nerve terminal motor latency was significantly increased 2~3 days after delivery but substantial recovery occurred in the first 2 months after delivery nearly to the pre-delivery value. Maximum average resting pressure was not affected by delivery. In contrast, maximum average squeeze pressure was decreased significantly 2~3 days after delivery and some recovery occurred in the first 6 months after delivery, which still remained significantly low relative to pre-delivery value. Perineal descent was significantly increased 2~3 days after delivery but substantial recovery occurred in the first 2 months after delivery, which still remained significantly low relative to pre-delivery value and thereafter no significant recovery was found. These results suggest pudendal nerve damage occurrs during vaginal delivery which recovers in the first 2 months after delivery but functional disturbance in pelvic floor sphincter muscuature persists thereafter, and we support avoidance of further vaginal delivery after previous damage to the innervation of pelvic floor sphincter musculature.

Endometriosis at the site of episiotomy scar following vaginal delivery is rare condition among the extrapelvic endometriosis implantation. We have experienced a case of episiotomy scar endometriosis. The precise anatomical location of the endometriotic lesion is confirmed using preoperative anal endosonogarphy. We believe anal endosonography to be essential when history, digital examination, and proctoscopy are not conclusive in the differential diagnosis of perianal pain or mass. The treatment of choice is complete surgical excision of the lesion and the surgical excision usually obtain permanent cure. We report a case of endometriosis at the site of episiotomy scar.
