Methods: One hundred and fifty two patients with endometrial ovarian cyst were randomly divided into 3 groups treated with three therapies: combined laparoscopy with CHM (combination group), CHM (TCM group) and danazol (WM group). To compare the clinical efficacy and side effects shown by the three groups and to elucidate the therapeutic mechanism by detecting the serum CA 125 reproductive endocrine hormone, plasma prostaglandin F 2α , prostaglandin E 2 etc. Results: The shrinking rate, disappearance rate of the cysts and markedly effective rate in the combination group were obviously higher than those in the TCM group and WM group ( P <0.05, P <0.01). The pregnancy rate of combination group was also higher than that of the WM group ( P <0.05). Few side effects constituted the most prominent advantage for the combination group and TCM group. After treatment, the plasma prostaglandin F 1α lowered remarkably, serum progesterone increased and CA 125 reduced obviously ( P <0.01, P <0.05). Conclusion: The laparoscopy and CHM combination therapy is a new method in treating endometrial ovarian cyst which has significant efficacy, minimal adverse effect and maximal preservation of reproductive function.展开更多

Methods A 30-year-old patient complained of mild dysmenorrhea and gradual enlargement of bilateral adnexal cysts in the past one year. At the age of 27 she had undergone a laparoscopic right ovarian endometrial cyst ablation. Before the second operation, pelvic ultrasound revealed recurrence of bilateral cysts in the adnexal regions, as well as serum concentrations of CA19-9 and CA125 above normal limits. Laparotomy revealed a 7 cm cystic mass of the right ovary, tightly adhesive to the lateral pelvic; a 10 cm-large mass on the left adnexal region embedded among intestines. The left adnexal mass appeared to be attached to the fimbriated end of the left fallopian tube with the ipsi-lateral ovary. However the left fallopian tube was obscure because of severe synechia. After separating the adhesion, we found the left hydrosalpinx. Results During laparotomy, both the cyst on the right ovary and the left fallopian tube were removed. Grossly, it revealed enlargement of the left fallopian tube in diameter 1.3 cm, with 2 neoplasms, in diameter 0.6 cm and off-white and smooth appearance. This mass was considered to be a mature solid teratoma arising in the left fallopian tube. At the same time it indicated left hydrosalpinx. Conclusion Although mature cystic teratomas are derived from ovarian germ cells （in proportion of 16%-20%）, mature teratoma of the fallopian tube is very rare. Once diagnosis, the operation will be recommended. This case was revealed during the laparotomy accidentally. The prognosis was good.展开更多
