Background: Accessory and Cavitated uterine mass (ACUM) is an uncommon form of uterine anomaly seen in young nulliparous women, which presents with chronic pelvic pain and severe dysmenorrhoea. It is often underdiagnosed due to broad differential diagnosis, including rudimentary uterine horn, true cavitated adenomyosis and degenerating fibroids. Case summary: A 29 year women presented with severe dysmenorrhoea and was initially diagnosed with Rudimentary uterine horn with left ovarian endometriotic cyst 8x7x6cm on ultrasonography. The patient underwent laparoscopic excision of rudimentary horn with left ovarian endometriotic cystectomy with hysteroscopy and chromopertubation and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis as ACUM with endometriotic cyst. Postoperatively, the patient did well and no further dysmenorrhoea. Conclusion: ACUM is difficult to diagnosed. A correct diagnosis can be made only after excion and histopathological evaluation. Surgical excision is necessary and can be done by laparoscopy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
