The present case is consistent with other reported cases of xanthogranulomatous salpingitis and oophoritis in its presentation, history of infection, and antibiotic treatment. |
A salpingitis has the same effect in causing sterility in the female as has an epididymitis in the male. |
Hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy specimens revealed uterine leiomyomas, adenomyosis, and acute salpingitis. |
There are no specific signs for salpingitis but a check must be made for any abscessed collections. |
The woman's history will be looked at for irregular periods, salpingitis, previous surgery, or any other indication that might suggest a reason. |
A case of xanthogranulomatous salpingitis and oophoritis in a 47-year-old woman is presented. |
