초록
Dermoid cysts or mature cystic teratoma are the most common type of ovarian germ cell tumor. It may be complicatedby torsion, rupture, chemical peritonitis and malignant change but is rarely complicated by infection. We present acase of an ovarian dermoid cyst with super-infection caused by Schistosoma haematobium (S. haematobium). Wepresent here a case of incidental finding of S. haematobium eggs in an infected cystic teratoma of the ovary becauseof the rare occurrence of this lesion. A 45-year-old Moroccan woman admitted to the gynecological departmentbecause of abdominal pain and fever. Gynecological examination, ultrasonography, and abdominopelvic computedtomography scan revealed an ovarian mass thought to be a dermoid cyst. The pathological evaluation suggestedinfected ovarian dermoid cyst with the presence of adult worm in the tumor, contains same eggs of S. haematobium. Super-infection of an ovarian dermoid cyst is a rare event, and the association with S. haematobium is extremely rarein the literature.
Abstract
Dermoid cysts or mature cystic teratoma are the most common type of ovarian germ cell tumor. It may be complicatedby torsion, rupture, chemical peritonitis and malignant change but is rarely complicated by infection. We present acase of an ovarian dermoid cyst with super-infection caused by Schistosoma haematobium (S. haematobium). Wepresent here a case of incidental finding of S. haematobium eggs in an infected cystic teratoma of the ovary becauseof the rare occurrence of this lesion. A 45-year-old Moroccan woman admitted to the gynecological departmentbecause of abdominal pain and fever. Gynecological examination, ultrasonography, and abdominopelvic computedtomography scan revealed an ovarian mass thought to be a dermoid cyst. The pathological evaluation suggestedinfected ovarian dermoid cyst with the presence of adult worm in the tumor, contains same eggs of S. haematobium. Super-infection of an ovarian dermoid cyst is a rare event, and the association with S. haematobium is extremely rarein the literature.
