Meconium peritonitis secondary to torsion of fallopian tube cyst and transient central diabetes insipidus in a preterm infant.

Meconium peritonitis is a sterile chemical peritonitis caused by peritoneal seeding of meconium from an antenatal gastrointestinal perforation. We report a 32-week preterm female neonate who developed meconium peritonitis due to bowel perforation, secondary to a twisted left fallopian tube mass, which was excised and confirmed by histopathology. This association has not been reported earlier. The infant also developed transient central diabetes insipidus, a very rare condition in a preterm neonate.

Recanalization of a fallopian tube after detorsion of twisted adnexa: report of a case with follow-up by repeat hysterosalpingography.

BACKGROUND: Detorsion and cystectomy of twisted adnexa have been performed in young women. However, identification was incomplete, and the function of the affected tube was not investigated. CASE: A 23-year-old, nulligravid woman with an acute abdomen was diagnosed with adnexal torsion. An emergency laparotomy revealed that both ovaries were 12x9x9 cm. the right adnexa were twisted and bluish black. Detorsion of the twisted lesion and ipsilateral fallopian tube was performed, with subsequent cystectomy of both lesions. Hysterosalpingography on the 14th postoperative day showed right tubal obstruction; 6 months postoperatively, repeat hysterosalpingography revealed patency of the right tube. CONCLUSION: At least several months may be required for functional recovery of an untwisted tube. For that reason, postoperative repeat hysterosalpingography is a useful method for follow-up of function in an untwisted tube.

Reanastomosis of the previously ligated fallopian tube.

Tubal sterilization procedures are being performed on young women in increasing numbers. For a variety of reasons a small but significant number of women are requesting reversal of the tubal interruption. This report presents a series of 20 consecutive patients on whom tuabl reanastomoses of previously noncoagulated, surgically ligated fallopian tubes were performed. An intraluminal tubal suture technique is described. Low magnification (X2 to X4) was used. The comparative results of the patients operated upon revealed a tubal pregnancy rate of 80%, a total pregnancy rate of 70%, a viable pregnancy rate of 55%, three abortions, and one ectopic pregnancy.

Immunolymphoscintigraphy and immunoscintigraphy of ovarian and fallopian tube cancer using F(ab')2 fragments of monoclonal antibody OC 125.

We have used immunolymphoscintigraphy (ILS) alone or in combination with immunoscintigraphy with 131I-labeled F(ab')2 fragments of monoclonal OC 125 antibodies to improve detection of retroperitoneal lymph node metastases of ovarian and fallopian tube cancer. ILS was carried out with bilateral dorsopedal s.c. injections on nine patients and with bilateral iliopelvic injections into the ischiorectal fossa on two other patients. Radioimaging was performed 2-4 times between 0 and 5 days. An additional dose of labeled antibody fragments was given i.v., and imaging was done 2-3 days later. Conventional immunoscintigraphy without preceding ILS was carried out on another nine patients. Dorsopedal ILS improved detection of pelvic and paraaortic lymph node metastases. Malignant lymph nodes were detectable as early as 3 h after s.c. injection of the tracer. Combined results of ILS and immunoscintigraphy in 16 surgically verified cases indicated a true positive finding in 9 patients, true negative finding in 5, false positive in one, and false negative in 1. Calculated from these figures the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the method were 90, 83, and 88%, respectively. Involved lymph nodes were found more frequently in those patients whose serum CA 125 concentration was elevated demonstrating that an elevated serum CA 125 level does not preclude successful radioimmunodetection.
