To report a case of abscess formation in bilateral ovarian endometriomas after failure of mifepristone-induced abortion.A-36-year-old multiparous woman with bilateral ovarian endometriomas conceived spontaneously and received mifepristone to induce an abortion at 35 days' gestation. Fever and lower abdominal pain occurred 28 days after the abortion. The patient then underwent surgical curettage for an incomplete abortion complicated by endometritis. Her symptoms and signs became aggravated, and computed tomography showed a large ovarian abscess. She underwent laparoscopic drainage of the abscess plus the enucleation of the ovarian endometriomas, and received intravenous antibiotic treatment. She resumed menstruation one month later and was doing well at the 11-month follow-up.This case demonstrates the importance of combining antibiotic therapy with mifepristone to induce abortions in women with known ovarian endometriomas. |
