Delhi doctors treat rare uterus disorder condition

A 22-year old girl got a new lease of life after doctors here successfully treated her with a rare uterus malformation.

The girl was suffering from cystic adenomysis -- also known as accessory cavitated uterine masses or ACUM -- that develops as a tiny uterus in the main uterus.
 

As a result, the patient was experiencing painful periods for the past three years, which progressively became worse. 


Doctors used extensive imaging tests to identify the malformation in her uterus and conducted laparoscopic surgery to treat the disorder.

"She developed dysmenorrhoea five years after attaining menarche (occurrence of the first menstruation) due to gradual collection of blood in the accessory uterine which became swollen and caused pain," the doctor said in a statement. 

"She sought consultations of gynaecologists and received treatment for polycystic ovarian disease  (PCOD) and fibroids. However, despite normal blood parameters, her pain did not subside," Kriplani added.

Dysmenorrhoea refers to menstrual cramps in addition to pelvic pain.

The doctors opted for advanced laparoscopic surgery and the patient recovered fully and was discharged the next day. 

ACUM is a rare and highly under diagnosed condition with only 75 reported cases so far
globally and 11 cases in India.
 
The doctors stressed that awareness must be spread among patients as well as gynaecologists and radiologists as patient suffers from extreme pain leading to severe mental stress culminating in psychological stress.

Pelvic Pain That Women Should Never Ignore

For women, weird pains in the pelvic region are easily dismissed as just cramps or normal women’s stuff, but when it keeps occurring, it might be time to get it checked out.
While appendicitis or complications from a pregnancy can cause pelvic pain, their symptoms are typically more pronounced and a lot easier to pinpoint. There are a number of organs located in the pelvic region that can be linked to a variety of ailments.
If you’ve been struggling with intermittent or ongoing pelvic pain, one of the following conditions could be the culprit.

 

Endometriosis

Pain associated with endometriosis is usually more intense during menstruation, but for some women, it occurs at any time. Endometriosis occurs when tissue starts to grow outside of the uterus’s lining into other parts of the body, including the ovaries, bladder, or fallopian tubes.
Women who suffer from this condition describe debilitating pain that feels like stabbing, crushing, or unbearable cramps. Pain might also be felt during intercourse.
Cysts
Your body produces an ovarian cyst during the normal stages of menstruation and ovulation. When a woman ovulates, they might feel some pain. However, there are other types of ovarian cysts that can grow within the ovaries and cause pain, discomfort, or dysfunction in the reproductive system.
These cysts will either disappear on their own, or might need to be surgically removed.
UTI
A urinary tract infection is one of the most common causes of pelvic pain in women. It might or might not be accompanied by other symptoms such as pain when urinating, an excessive urge to urinate, cloudy urine, or fever.
Fibroids
Though usually benign, fibroid tumors can grow so big that they cause pelvic pain and pressure, abnormal bleeding, or leg pain. Pain from fibroids may come and go or be consistent, and can become more noticeable after sex, exercise, menstruation, or a bowel movement.
Treatment might involve pain relief medication or surgery.

STIs

Sexually transmitted infections can cause the pelvic area to become inflamed unless they are treated quickly. Chlamydia and gonorrhea are usually the main culprits behind pelvic pain, but other non-sexual infections can also lead to pelvic inflammation and pain. All require medical treatment to resolve.
Interstitial Cystitis
In layman’s terms, this condition causes inflammation in the bladder, with no infection being present most of the time. The pain can be excruciating and last for weeks or months at a time, or it can be intermittent, feeling like pressure or a small bout of pain.
Symptoms might be mild or resemble those of a UTI. Women might also feel pain before urinating or after intercourse. Treatment usually entails medication, surgery, or physical therapy.
Kidney Stones
Women might also have pelvic pain thanks to kidney stones. When a crystallized stone travels from the kidney through the urinary tract, it can cause problems while trying to pass. The pain that occurs might be sharp and last for hours, or might be accompanied by back pain.
If you have this type of pain, or a fever, red urine, or painful urination, seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Hysterectomy

A hysterectomy is an operation to remove a woman's uterus. The uterus is the place where a baby grows when a woman is pregnant. Sometimes, the ovaries and fallopian tubes also are taken out. Hysterectomies are very common - one in three women  has had one by age 60.

Your health care provider might recommend a hysterectomy if you have

• Fibroids
• Endometriosis not cured by medicine or surgery
• Uterine prolapse - when the uterus drops into the vagina
• Cancer of the uterus, cervix, or ovaries
• Vaginal bleeding that persists despite treatment
• Chronic pelvic pain; surgery can be a last resort

Before having a hysterectomy, it is important to discuss other possible treatments with your health care provider. A hysterectomy will stop your periods, and you will no longer be able to get pregnant. If the surgery removes both ovaries, you will enter menopause.
