Extensive inflammatory change in the lower abdomen and pelvis. Intra-uterine contraceptive device. Mural thickening and enhancement of a tubular structure in the right adnexa, adjacent to a collection with enhancing margins. Normal bowel and solid abdominal viscera.
Case Discussion
Laparoscopy confirmed a tubo-ovarian abscess and drainage was performed. The intra-uterine contraceptive device was removed as that was considered to be the route of introduction or propagation of the inflammatory change.
