摘要
Objective: To report a case of mature cystic teratoma of the fallopian tube. Design: Case report. Setting: Medical college-affiliated hospital. Patient(s): A 31-year-old woman, gravida 0, visited our outpatient clinic with infertility. Hysterosalpingography (HSG) showed a swollen right fallopian tube whose patency was not confirmed. Intervention(s): Laparoscopic right salpingectomy was perfomed for a solid-appearing mass similar to 2 x 1.5 cm in diameter in the ampullary region. Histopathologic examination showed components from each germ cell layer; therefore, the diagnosis of a mature cystic teratoma of the right fallopian tube was confirmed. The patient became pregnant with IVF-ET and gave birth to a baby boy. Conclusion(s): In cases where hydrosalpinx is suspected, a careful assessment by either HSG or laparoscopy is necessary at the time of infertility examination. (Fertil Steril (R) 2010;94:2708-9.
