APPENDIX AT SURGERY
The patient is a 44 year old black female G0 P0, been married since 1992 and has a history of infertility. She voluntarily postponed family building and pregnancy by using protection until 2002 when she started seeking consultation for inability to get pregnant. Her initial investigations included ultrasound that revealed multiple uterine fibroids, elevated FSH, and anemia from menometrorrhagia.
In 2003, the patient underwent exploratory laboratory with extraction of 12 fibroid masses.
Follow up ultrasound revealed recurrent uterine fibroids and saline infusion sonography identified endometrial distortion with a 2.5 cm sub mucous component.
The patient was advised, counseled and underwent a laparoscopy with dye instillation. Operative findings revealed- recurrent multiple uterine fibroids, dense pelvic adhesions, left tubal blockade and right tubal patency with dye spillage. Hysteroscopy was performed at same operation that showed a 4 CM sub mucous fundal fibroid and no other intra-cavitary lesion or abnormality.
She was medically managed with lupron injections for her fibroids and menometrorrhagia. This placed her in a medically induced amenorrhea state for about 6-8 months. Induction of menses was initiated.
Her FSH levels continue to be elevated. TSH and T4 are normal. THE PATIENT’S OTHER INVESTIGATIONS INCLUDED SONOGRAM AND PHYSICAL EXAMINATION THAT REVEALED MULTIPLE UTERINE FIBROIDS. HSG REVEALED INTRACAVITARY LESION, OPACIFICATION OF BOTH TUBES WITH THE RT TUBE SHOWING PERITONEAL SPILLAGE AND LT TUBE SHOWING DISTAL PATHOLOGY AND NO SPILLAGE. SALINE INFUSION SONOGRAPHY SHOWED ENDOMETRIAL EXPANSION WITH INTRA-CAVITARY SUB-MUCOUS FIBROID MASS. BLOOD WORK REVEALED HB OF 70%. GENOTYPE AS, BLOOD GROUP/RH B-POSITIVE AND HIV NEGATIVE STATUS. THE PATIENT PRESENTED WITH REQUEST FOR SURGERY.
