Abstract

Ovarian abscess in young sexually non-active girls can represent a diagnostic challenge. 15-years old girl was admitted to the Clinic for Gynaecology and Obstetrics under the suspicion of torsion of an ovarian cyst. Her clinical status deteriorated after the admission with development of acute abdomen. Laparoscopic exploration was performed and unilateral ovarian abscess was found without involvement of other pelvic structures. The surgical procedure was minimal invasive for a young girl and Salmonella staleyville was isolated from pus. Solitary ovarian abscess can be of hematogenous origin and the causative pathogens are different from pathogens usually involved in pelvic inflammatory disease. To avoid later fertility problems it is of great importance to treat infections in pelvic region correctly according to the isolated microorganism and that surgery is the least invasive.

Abstract in Croatian

Ovarijski apsces u spolno neaktivnih djevojaka može predstavljati dijagnostički izazov. Petnaestogodišnja djevojka primljena je u Kliniku za ginekologiju i porodništvo pod sumnjom torzije ciste jajnika. Njeno kliničko stanje pogoršalo se nakon prijama razvojem akutnog abdomena. Učinjena je laparoskopska eksploracija te je nađen jednostrani ovarijski apsces bez zahvaćenosti drugih struktura zdjelice. Kirurški postupak za mladu djevojku je bio minimalno invazivan, a iz gnoja je izolirana Salmonella staleyville. Solitarni ovarijski apsces može biti hematogenog podrijela i uzočnici su različiti od patogena koji su obično uključeni u upalnu bolest zdjelice. Kako bi se izbjegli kasniji problemi plodnosti žena, od velike je važnosti ciljano liječiti upale zdjelične regije ovisno o izoliranom mikroorganizmu kao i primjena minimalno invazivnog kirurškog postupka.
