Introduction and significance: Lymphangiomas are benign vascular malformations commonly found in the head and neck region, although they can occur elsewhere. Clinical manifestations vary based on location and size. Surgical resection remains the primary treatment modality.

Case presentation: A male child presented with progressive abdominal distension without associated symptoms. Emergency department evaluation revealed a palpable abdominal mass. Abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) scans confirmed a large abdominal cyst. The cyst was surgically removed, and pathological examination diagnosed mesenteric lymphangioma.

Clinical discussion: Despite their infrequent occurrence, mesenteric cysts should be included in the differential diagnosis of pediatric abdominal masses.

Conclusion: Complete surgical resection is essential for the definitive management of mesenteric lymphangioma. Partial resection or aspiration should be avoided due to the risk of complications and potential recurrence.

导言和意义:淋巴管瘤是一种良性血管畸形,常见于头颈部,但也可发生在其他部位。临床表现因部位和大小而异。手术切除仍是主要的治疗方式:一名男性患儿出现进行性腹胀,但无相关症状。急诊科评估发现可触及腹部肿块。腹部超声波和计算机断层扫描(CT)证实了腹部巨大囊肿。手术切除了囊肿,病理检查诊断为肠系膜淋巴管瘤:临床讨论:尽管肠系膜囊肿并不常见,但应将其纳入小儿腹部肿块的鉴别诊断中:结论:完整的手术切除对于肠系膜淋巴管瘤的最终治疗至关重要。由于存在并发症和潜在复发的风险,应避免部分切除或抽吸。

Gallstone ileus presenting in an elderly patient: A case report. 一名老年患者出现胆石性回肠炎:病例报告
IF 0.6 Q4 SURGERY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-12 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2024.110440

Introduction and importance: Biliary ileus is a rare yet significant cause of mechanical intestinal obstruction, which occurs when a gallstone enters the gastrointestinal tract through a bilioenteric fistula, leading to intestinal blockage. This condition primarily affects elderly patients and is associated with high morbidity and mortality if not diagnosed and treated promptly.

Case presentation: We present the case of a 94-year-old female with a history of hypertension and chronic venous insufficiency. The patient was admitted with severe abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, with clinical findings suggestive of intestinal obstruction. Computed tomography revealed Rigler's triad, confirming the diagnosis of biliary ileus. An exploratory laparotomy was performed, identifying three gallstones in the small intestine. The patient underwent enterotomy for stone extraction and had a favorable immediate postoperative outcome.

Clinical discussion: Biliary ileus presents a diagnostic challenge due to its nonspecific symptoms. While Rigler's triad (pneumobilia, intestinal obstruction, and ectopic gallstone) is diagnostic, it is not always apparent in imaging. Surgical intervention remains the standard of care for resolving the obstruction, though appropriate preoperative management and timely surgery are crucial for improving outcomes.

Conclusion: This case emphasizes the importance of considering biliary ileus in the differential diagnosis of intestinal obstruction, particularly in elderly patients. Early surgical intervention is essential to prevent severe complications. Evidence based medicine ranking: Level IV.

导言和重要性:胆汁性回肠梗阻是机械性肠梗阻的一个罕见但重要的原因,当胆结石通过胆肠瘘进入胃肠道,导致肠梗阻时就会发生胆汁性回肠梗阻。这种疾病主要影响老年患者,如果得不到及时诊断和治疗,发病率和死亡率都很高:本病例是一名 94 岁女性患者,有高血压和慢性静脉功能不全病史。患者因剧烈腹痛、恶心和呕吐入院,临床表现提示肠梗阻。计算机断层扫描发现了里格勒三联征,确诊为胆汁性回肠梗阻。患者接受了探查性开腹手术,发现小肠内有三块胆结石。患者接受了肠切开取石术,术后效果良好:临床讨论:胆汁性回肠梗阻因其症状无特异性而成为诊断难题。虽然里格勒三联征(胆囊积气、肠梗阻和异位胆石)具有诊断意义,但在影像学检查中并不总是很明显。手术治疗仍是解决梗阻的标准方法,但适当的术前处理和及时手术对改善预后至关重要:本病例强调了在肠梗阻的鉴别诊断中考虑胆汁性回肠炎的重要性,尤其是在老年患者中。早期手术干预对预防严重并发症至关重要。循证医学排名:四级。

Long-standing retroperitoneal schwannoma in a 36-year-old female: A case report. 一名 36 岁女性的长期腹膜后分裂瘤:病例报告。
IF 0.6 Q4 SURGERY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-17 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2024.110471

Introduction: Schwannomas are encapsulated nerve sheath tumors derived from Schwann cells, primarily found in the head, neck, and extremities. Retroperitoneal schwannomas are rare and typically asymptomatic.

Case presentation: A 36-year-old female presented with a long-standing, asymptomatic right lower abdominal mass. Imaging revealed a retroperitoneal cystic mass displacing adjacent structures. The tumor was surgically excised, and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of schwannoma. The patient had an uneventful postoperative recovery and remains symptom-free with no signs of recurrence.

Discussion: Schwannomas are benign nerve tumors primarily affecting women aged 30 to 50. This case involved an asymptomatic retroperitoneal schwannoma displacing the inferior vena cava without neurological symptoms. Imaging methods like ultrasound and CT are useful but often lack definitive results, and preoperative biopsy is not recommended due to risks of vascular injury. While conservative management may be suitable for asymptomatic cases, complete surgical excision is crucial to prevent recurrence. Although some suggest partial excision, most literature supports curative resection with negative margins, as incomplete removal can lead to a 10-20 % recurrence rate. The patient underwent successful complete resection.

Conclusion: Retroperitoneal schwannomas are rare tumors that are difficult to diagnose preoperatively. Radiologic findings are usually nondiagnostic. The treatment of choice is complete surgical excision.

简介:许旺瘤是由许旺细胞衍生的包裹性神经鞘瘤,主要发生在头部、颈部和四肢。腹膜后的许旺瘤非常罕见,通常没有症状:一名 36 岁女性因长期无症状的右下腹肿块就诊。影像学检查发现腹膜后囊性肿块移位邻近结构。手术切除了肿瘤,组织病理学确诊为分裂瘤。患者术后恢复顺利,目前仍无症状,无复发迹象:讨论:裂间神经瘤是一种良性神经肿瘤,主要影响30至50岁的女性。本病例中,无症状的腹膜后神经分裂瘤使下腔静脉移位,但无神经症状。超声波和 CT 等影像学方法很有用,但往往缺乏明确的结果,而且由于存在血管损伤的风险,不建议进行术前活检。虽然保守治疗可能适合无症状的病例,但彻底的手术切除对于防止复发至关重要。尽管有人建议进行部分切除,但大多数文献都支持阴性边缘的根治性切除,因为不完全切除会导致10%-20%的复发率。该患者成功接受了完全切除术:结论:腹膜后分裂瘤是一种罕见的肿瘤,术前很难诊断。结论:腹膜后分裂瘤是一种罕见肿瘤,术前诊断困难,放射学检查结果通常无法确诊。治疗首选完全手术切除。

Pancreatoduodenectomy in a patient with complete atherosclerotic occlusion of superior mesenteric artery: A case report. 肠系膜上动脉完全粥样硬化性闭塞患者的胰十二指肠切除术:病例报告。
IF 0.6 Q4 SURGERY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-19 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2024.110492

Introduction and importance: In elderly patients with atherosclerotic disease the occlusion of splanchnic arteries is a frequently observed variation, which doesn't normally affect patient's condition. There are sporadic reports on pancreatoduodenectomy in these cases.

Case presentation: A 72-year-old female was admitted to our department with cancer of the ampulla of Vater. Pre-operative CT-angiography revealed total atherosclerotic occlusion of the main trunk of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA). Collateral circulation was conducted through gastroduodenal and dorsal pancreatic artery. Pancreatoduodenectomy was performed with an intraoperative clamping test, which showed no signs of bowel ischemia. The patient was discharged on post-operative day 14 without any complications, and long-term follow-up revealed adjustment of collateral circulation through the inferior mesenteric artery and Riolan's arcade.

Clinical discussion: Most cases of mesenteric artery stenosis occur in patients with underlying cardiac condition. As the occlusion develops chronically, it doesn't cause any symptoms due to collateral circulation, and no preoperative intervention is usually needed. However, there are rare cases reported in the literature, when preoperative endovascular stenting and SMA dilation were performed before pancreatoduodenectomy. In this report we decided to proceed with surgery upfront and perform an intraoperative clamping test.

Conclusion: In this report we present a rare case of successful pancreatoduodenectomy in a patient with total atherosclerosis of the superior mesenteric artery. The intraoperative clamping test allowed us to assess both the sufficiency of collateral circulation and the feasibility of the surgery.

导言和重要性:在患有动脉粥样硬化疾病的老年患者中,脾动脉闭塞是一种常见的变异,通常不会影响患者的病情。有零星报道称在这些病例中进行了胰十二指肠切除术:一名 72 岁的女性因瓦特氏管癌症入住我科。术前 CT 血管造影显示肠系膜上动脉(SMA)主干完全动脉粥样硬化性闭塞。侧支循环通过胃十二指肠动脉和胰背动脉进行。胰十二指肠切除术在术中进行了钳夹试验,结果显示没有肠缺血迹象。患者于术后第 14 天出院,未出现任何并发症,长期随访显示,通过肠系膜下动脉和 Riolan's arcade 的侧支循环得到了调整:临床讨论:大多数肠系膜动脉狭窄病例都发生在有心脏基础疾病的患者身上。由于闭塞是慢性的,不会因侧支循环而引起任何症状,因此通常不需要术前干预。不过,文献中也有罕见病例报道,在胰十二指肠切除术前进行了术前血管内支架植入术和 SMA 扩张术。在本报告中,我们决定先进行手术,并进行术中钳夹试验:在本报告中,我们介绍了一例罕见的成功胰十二指肠切除术的病例,患者患有肠系膜上动脉全动脉粥样硬化。通过术中夹闭试验,我们评估了侧支循环的充足性和手术的可行性。

TAVI complication: Prosthetic valve leaflet dislodgment after post-dilatation. TAVI 并发症:扩张后人工瓣叶脱落。
IF 0.6 Q4 SURGERY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-10 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2024.110441

Introduction and importance: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat severe aortic stenosis. While TAVI is generally safe and effective, it can be complicated by rare adverse events such as prosthetic leaflet dislodgment leading to acute free aortic regurgitation.

Case presentation: We report the case of a female patient who experienced acute free aortic regurgitation following elective TAVI. This complication arose due to prosthetic leaflet dislodgment after post-dilatation of the implanted valve. The timely identification and management of this rare complication are essential to prevent potentially fatal outcomes.

Clinical discussion: The moderate paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) observed in this case was likely caused by the unsealing of heavily calcified aortic valve leaflets. While post-dilatation is a routine practice to optimize valve function, it poses the risk of serious complications, including leaflet dislodgment. Transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) confirmed the loss of function of the prosthetic leaflet, which was likely exacerbated by aggressive post-dilatation techniques. The use of intravascular lithotripsy could be considered to mitigate the risk of significant PVR by effectively modifying the calcified valve structure.

Conclusions: Acute prosthetic leaflet dislodgment leading to free aortic regurgitation is a very rare but serious complication of TAVI. Early recognition and immediate intervention are crucial to manage this life-threatening event and optimize patient outcomes.

导言和重要性:经导管主动脉瓣植入术(TAVI)是一种用于治疗严重主动脉瓣狭窄的微创手术。虽然经导管主动脉瓣植入术通常安全有效,但也可能因罕见的不良事件(如人工瓣叶脱落导致急性游离主动脉瓣反流)而变得复杂:我们报告了一例女性患者在择期进行 TAVI 后出现急性游离主动脉瓣反流的病例。这一并发症是由于植入瓣膜扩张后人工瓣叶脱位引起的。及时发现和处理这种罕见的并发症对于防止潜在的致命后果至关重要:本病例中出现的中度主动脉瓣旁瓣返流(PVR)很可能是由于严重钙化的主动脉瓣叶脱落造成的。虽然扩张后手术是优化瓣膜功能的常规做法,但也存在严重并发症的风险,包括瓣叶脱落。经食道超声心动图(TEE)证实了人工瓣叶功能的丧失,而积极的扩张后技术很可能加剧了这种丧失。可以考虑使用血管内碎石术,通过有效改变钙化的瓣膜结构来降低出现明显PVR的风险:急性人工瓣叶脱位导致游离主动脉瓣反流是 TAVI 非常罕见但严重的并发症。早期识别和立即干预对于控制这种危及生命的事件和优化患者预后至关重要。

Double cyst duct in a young woman with a history of systemic lupus: A case report. 一名有系统性红斑狼疮病史的年轻女性体内的双囊肿导管:病例报告。
IF 0.6 Q4 SURGERY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-16 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2024.110459

Introduction and importance: Cholecystectomy is the most common general surgery procedure, necessitating thorough knowledge of bile duct anatomy. Despite the bile duct's anatomical diversity, reports of double cystic ducts are rare. This case presentation aims to emphasize the importance of recognizing this unusual anatomical variant during surgical procedures to prevent complications and ensure patient safety.

Case presentation: This is a 22-year-old woman with a history of lupus. Initial clinical and ultrasound evaluations concluded she had cholangitis, choledocholithiasis, and cholecystitis. A cholecystectomy was performed, during which a double cystic duct was identified and confirmed with intraoperative cholangiography. Five days after surgery, the patient exhibited increased bilirubin levels, and a follow-up cholangiography showed dilation of the common bile duct with no passage of contrast medium into the duodenum. She underwent ERCP with endoprosthesis placement and is currently under follow-up with adequate progress.

Clinical discussion: Double cystic ducts are extremely rare anatomical variants. These variations pose significant challenges for surgeons during surgery, emphasizing the need for a universal culture of safety during cholecystectomy. Although this anatomical variant is rare, surgeons must be aware of it. Given the uncertainty of anatomy, it is advisable to perform intraoperative imaging, such as cholangiography, before sectioning any duct.

Conclusion: Double cystic duct variations are rare, but when bile duct anatomy is unclear, intraoperative cholangiography is essential. This technique improves visualization of biliary structures, aiding informed decisions before duct ligation and reducing the risk of bile duct disruption.

导言和重要性:胆囊切除术是最常见的普外科手术,需要对胆管解剖有透彻的了解。尽管胆管的解剖结构多种多样,但双囊管的报告却很少见。本病例旨在强调在外科手术中识别这种异常解剖变异的重要性,以防止并发症的发生,确保患者安全:这是一名 22 岁的女性,有红斑狼疮病史。初步临床和超声波评估认为她患有胆管炎、胆总管结石和胆囊炎。她接受了胆囊切除术,术中发现并通过术中胆管造影确认了双囊管。术后五天,患者胆红素水平升高,随访胆管造影显示胆总管扩张,造影剂未进入十二指肠。她接受了ERCP,并置入了假体,目前正在接受随访,进展良好:临床讨论:双胆囊管是极其罕见的解剖变异。临床讨论:双胆囊管是一种极其罕见的解剖变异,在手术过程中给外科医生带来了巨大挑战,强调了胆囊切除术中普遍安全文化的必要性。虽然这种解剖变异非常罕见,但外科医生必须意识到这一点。鉴于解剖结构的不确定性,建议在切开任何导管之前进行术中成像,如胆管造影:结论:双胆管变异非常罕见,但当胆管解剖结构不清楚时,术中胆管造影是必不可少的。这项技术可改善胆管结构的可视化,有助于在结扎胆管前做出明智的决定,并降低胆管破坏的风险。

Introduction and importance: Emphysematous cystitis is a rare and serious urinary tract infection with gas in the bladder, commonly affecting elderly diabetic women. Prompt evaluation and management are vital due to its potential life-threatening nature, associated with risk factors like diabetes, neurogenic bladders, and urinary stasis.

Case presentation: A 55-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes presented confusion, lumbar pain, and urinary symptoms. Elevated CRP, white blood cells and imaging revealed extensive emphysema. Urinary drainage and empirical antibiotics (Ceftriaxone, metronidazole, amikacin) targeting Klebsiella pneumoniae led to clinical improvement. A 14-day treatment was followed by referral to an endocrinologist for diabetes management.

Discussion: Emphysematous cystitis, often linked to poorly controlled diabetes, presents diverse symptoms. Diagnosis relies on imaging, with computed tomography being the gold standard. Symptoms range from asymptomatic to severe, necessitating prompt intervention and tailored antibiotic therapy. Successful treatment involves addressing risk factors, emphasizing glycemic control.

Conclusion: Emphysematous cystitis demands prompt attention, considering its rarity and potential severity. Timely diagnosis and comprehensive management are crucial for a favorable prognosis, highlighting the need for swift physician intervention.

导言和重要性:气肿性膀胱炎是一种罕见而严重的膀胱充气性尿路感染,常见于老年糖尿病妇女。由于该病可能危及生命,且与糖尿病、神经源性膀胱和尿液淤积等危险因素有关,因此及时评估和治疗至关重要:一名患有 1 型糖尿病的 55 岁女性出现意识模糊、腰痛和泌尿系统症状。CRP 和白细胞升高,影像学检查发现广泛的肺气肿。尿液引流和针对肺炎克雷伯菌的经验性抗生素(头孢曲松、甲硝唑、阿米卡星)使临床症状有所改善。经过 14 天的治疗,患者转诊至内分泌科接受糖尿病治疗:讨论:气肿性膀胱炎通常与糖尿病控制不佳有关,症状多种多样。诊断主要依靠影像学检查,其中计算机断层扫描是金标准。症状从无症状到严重不等,需要及时干预并采用有针对性的抗生素治疗。成功的治疗包括消除风险因素,强调血糖控制:结论:考虑到气肿性膀胱炎的罕见性和潜在的严重性,需要及时给予关注。及时诊断和综合治疗是获得良好预后的关键,突出了医生迅速干预的必要性。

A "one in a million" case of colorectal carcinoma - A case report from a tertiary care centre in Mumbai, India. 百万分之一 "的结直肠癌病例--印度孟买一家三级医疗中心的病例报告。
IF 0.6 Q4 SURGERY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-05 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2024.110417

Introduction: Colorectal Carcinoma (CRC) has recently been on the rise among children, bearing a prevalence of 1-2 children/adolescents per million people. Here, we present a rare case of CRC in a 14-year-old male, emphasizing the need for development of better screening techniques to diagnose CRC earlier and with adequate time for intervention.

Case presentation: A 14-year-old male visited our hospital with constipation, intermittent per rectal bleed and dull-aching pain abdomen for 2 months. On per rectal examination, a hard mass was identified, approximately 3 cm above the anal verge. Contrast-enhanced CT (Chest and Abdomen) and MRI Pelvis identified a circumferential thickening in the rectum predominantly involving the anterior rectal wall with effacement of fat planes with the Urinary Bladder without infiltrating it. Colonoscopic biopsy identified Signet Ring Adenocarcinoma. A multi-disciplinary decision was taken to treat him with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy (NACT-RT). MRI Pelvis, post-NACT-RT, showed that the previously- effaced fat plane was now clear and an Abdominoperineal Resection (APR) with permanent end- descending-colostomy was done. Histopathology report of the specimen identified a poorly undifferentiated mucin-secreting adenocarcinoma.

Discussion: At presentation, the patient could have been either planned for extensive surgery or NACT-RT. The choice of NACT-RT was justified in our patient and was advantageous as extensive surgery was prevented.

Conclusion: We implore vigilance in cases of rectal masses due to the rising incidence of CRC among children. We also advocate that there must be no hesitation in subjecting adolescents to Chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, as the benefits significantly outweigh the risks of with-holding.

导言:大肠癌(CRC)近来在儿童中的发病率呈上升趋势,每百万人中就有 1-2 名儿童/青少年患病。在此,我们介绍了一例罕见的 14 岁男性 CRC 病例,强调需要开发更好的筛查技术,以便更早地诊断 CRC,并有足够的时间进行干预:一名 14 岁男性因便秘、间歇性直肠出血和腹部钝痛 2 个月来我院就诊。经直肠检查,发现肛门边缘上方约 3 厘米处有一硬块。对比增强 CT(胸部和腹部)和磁共振骨盆成像发现直肠周缘增厚,主要累及直肠前壁,脂肪平面与膀胱相通,但未浸润膀胱。结肠镜活检确定为信号环腺癌。多学科专家决定对他进行新辅助化疗和放疗(NACT-RT)。新辅助化疗和放疗(NACT-RT)后的骨盆核磁共振成像显示,之前被剥离的脂肪平面现在变得清晰了,于是进行了腹会阴切除术(APR),并在末端做了永久性降结肠造口术。标本的组织病理学报告显示,这是一种未分化的分泌粘液腺癌:讨论:该患者在就诊时本可选择广泛手术或 NACT-RT。对我们的患者来说,选择 NACT-RT 是合理的,也是有利的,因为避免了大范围手术:结论:由于 CRC 在儿童中的发病率不断上升,我们恳请大家对直肠肿块病例保持警惕。我们还主张,在让青少年接受化疗和/或放疗时一定要毫不犹豫,因为化疗和/或放疗的益处远远大于暂停化疗的风险。

Differential diagnoses and therapeutic features of giant cell tumor of the bone in an elderly patient: A case report. 一名老年患者骨巨细胞瘤的鉴别诊断和治疗特点:病例报告。
IF 0.6 Q4 SURGERY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-17 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2024.110467

Introduction: Giant cells tumor (GCT) of the bone is usually seen in young adults between the ages of 20 and 40. When occurring in older patients, diagnosis and therapeutic specific feature are to be considered. We underline those aspects through this case report.

Case presentation: We report the case of a 73-year-old man presenting with a painful swelling knee. The diagnosis of GCT of proximal tibia was retained and the patient underwent extensive curettage, subchondral bone grafting and cementation of the residual cavity. The long-term results show a good functional outcome and no recurrence.

Discussion: In this age group, other lesions have similar clinical and radiological presentations as GCT of bone. The diagnosis of a metastatic carcinoma is to be carefully ruled-out in this situation. While the option of large resection with joint arthroplasty is better accepted in ageing patients as a treatment of GCT of bone, this case suggests that jointpreserving methods should also be considered especially when there are no signs of osteoarthritis. While polymethylmethacrylate cementation is an efficient adjuvant in order to reduce recurrences, it may cause secondary osteoarthritis. Subchondral grafting seems to be a good alternative to prevent this complication.

Conclusion: Malignancies should be ruled-out before retaining the diagnosis of GCT of the bone after the age of 50. Conservative surgical treatment is always an option in this age group.

简介骨巨细胞瘤(GCT)通常见于 20 至 40 岁的青壮年。如果患者年龄较大,则需要考虑诊断和治疗的特殊性。我们通过本病例报告强调了这些方面:我们报告了一例 73 岁男性膝关节肿胀疼痛的病例。我们保留了胫骨近端 GCT 的诊断,并对患者进行了广泛的刮除、软骨下骨移植和残腔粘接。长期结果显示,患者功能良好,没有复发:讨论:在这一年龄组中,其他病变的临床和影像学表现与骨 GCT 相似。在这种情况下,应仔细排除转移癌的诊断。虽然在老年患者中,大面积切除并进行关节成形术作为骨 GCT 的治疗方法更易被接受,但该病例表明,也应考虑采用保留关节的方法,尤其是在没有骨关节炎迹象的情况下。虽然聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯骨水泥是减少复发的有效辅助手段,但它可能会引起继发性骨关节炎。软骨下植骨术似乎是预防这种并发症的良好选择:结论:在确诊50岁以后的骨GCT之前,应排除恶性肿瘤的可能性。对于这个年龄段的患者,保守性手术治疗始终是一种选择。

Introduction: This report details a case of Type I oblique vaginal septum syndrome (OVSS), highlighting its complexity as a congenital uterine malformation.

Case presentation: A 12-year-old girl presented with severe lower abdominal pain coinciding with her first menstrual period. Ultrasound revealed a septate uterus and an oblique vaginal septum, prompting an emergency hysteroscopic procedure that confirmed the diagnosis of Type I OVSS.

Discussion: OVSS is a rare urogenital anomaly often diagnosed during adolescence. Common symptoms include abdominal pain, abdominal masses, and irregular vaginal bleeding. Due to its atypical presentation, OVSS is frequently misdiagnosed. Early surgical intervention is crucial to relieve pain and restore normal uterine morphology.

Conclusion: Diagnosing OVSS can be challenging, but early detection is vital to prevent complications such as retrograde menstruation and long-term issues.

导言:本报告详细介绍了一例 I 型阴道斜隔综合征(OVSS)病例,强调了其作为先天性子宫畸形的复杂性:一名 12 岁女孩在月经初潮时出现剧烈下腹痛。超声波检查发现子宫有隔膜和阴道斜隔,于是紧急进行了宫腔镜手术,确诊为 I 型 OVSS:OVSS是一种罕见的泌尿生殖系统畸形,通常在青春期被诊断出来。常见症状包括腹痛、腹部肿块和不规则阴道出血。由于表现不典型,OVSS 经常被误诊。早期手术治疗对缓解疼痛和恢复正常子宫形态至关重要:诊断OVSS可能具有挑战性,但早期发现对于预防逆行性月经等并发症和长期问题至关重要。
