Haemoperitoneum secondary to ruptured corpus luteum is a rare complication for women of reproductive life. The differential diagnosis of hemoperitoneum includes various types of acute abdomen that usually associated with acute lower abdominal pain and swelling lower abdomen. The differential diagnosis includes ruptured ectopic pregnancy, ruptured chocolate cyst, twisted ovarian tumor, pelvic inflammatory disease and pelvic peritonitis. Ruptured hemorrhagic corpus luteum is an uncommon cause of acute abdomem. Its occurrence is unknown but is likely quite frequent and without symptoms. Most cases are self limiting; enquire only observation with abdominal pain relieved with analgesics. Some need laparoscopy or laparotomy to achieve homeostasis if the patient is haemodynamically unstable. Key word: Haemoperitoneum, Appendicitis, Ruptured Corpus luteum.   DOI: 10.3329/bmj.v37i2.3596 Bangladesh Medical Journal 37(2) 2008 66-67

Introduction: Diagnostic Laparoscopy is considered to be the gold standard for the evaluation of the pelvis and is considered asafe procedure. Diagnostic Laparoscopy is a technique in the routine investigation and treatment of infertility as well as other gynecologicalproblems. Objectives: To determine, Laparoscopic findings in different gynecological conditions, different causes of infertility andcomplications of laparoscopy Design: Retrospective, descriptive study. Material And Methods: We reviewed case records of all patients whounderwent laparoscopy for their different Gynecological problems. Data were collected from patient case records in a data entry sheet Results:In our study a total of Thirty patients under went laparoscopy for investigation of different gynecological problems. There were 17 patients whohave primary infertility and 6 have secondary infertility while 7 presented with Lower abdominal pain. In our study the leading cause of primaryinfertility was Polycystic Ovarian Disease(29%).Other causes were bilateral tubal blockade (23.53 %) ,17% has PID and fibroid uteri, While onepatients shown Endometriosis as well as one patient had no obvious pathology.(5.88 %).On laparoscopic examination of secondaryinfertility 50% shown Tubal blocked while 16.67 shown Fibroid uterus and PID.One patient had normal pelvic findings(16.67). Regardingpatients presented with pain lower abdomen 57.15% has ovarian cyst,28.58% has Ectopic pregnancy while one case(14.29%) had hetrotropicpregnancy. In 24 patients had no complication and recovery was smooth. laparoscopy had to be converted into Laparotomy due to significanthemorrhage in two patient and wound infection was observed in two patients. One patient presented with post operative fever and onepresented with abdominal pain. Conclusions: Laparoscopy is a valuable diagnostic tool for females in different gynecological problems. Thebenefit of the laparoscopy to open surgery include less pain, less scarring, less disability and quicker recovery.

A unicornuate uterus with functioning and non communicating rudimentary horn is a rare Mullerian abnormality, difficult to diagnose at times usually low in the list of differential diagnosis for pelvic pain and dysmenorrhea. A 22 years P1 presented with severe lower abdominal pain and dysmenorrhoea, following laparotomy that was done for endometriotic cyst of left ovary 7 months back. Radiographic studies revealed the haematometra in the rudimentary horn with normal uterus, right ovary and the tube. Laparotomy with drainage of haematometra and excision of septum along with the reconstruction of uterine cavity was performed thus anatomizing it with the cavity of the rudimentary horn. Both the intra and the post operative period were uneventful. She was discharged on OCP along with the advice to follow up regularly. She is asymptomatic till date. Key words: Endometriosis, haematometra, rudimentary horn doi:10.3126/njog.v2i1.1480 N. J. Obstet. Gynaecol Vol. 2, No. 1, p. 59 - 62 May -June 2007

Ovarian cysts are common causes of lower abdominal pain and abdominal distention in females. While most of them are benign and rarely grow immensely to achieve a huge size, they may be neoplastic in origin, reaching enormous dimensions with minimum or without raising any symptoms.Here, we present an interesting case of a 19-year-old female,who presented with huge abdominal swelling and pain in whole abdomen from whom a 9.1 kg borderline mucinous ovarian cyst, occupying the whole abdominal cavity was removed.

Abstract A 78 year old female presented with sudden onset lower abdominal pain, vomiting and fresh rectal bleeding. She had undergone extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ECSL) for a left renal stone two weeks earlier and was taking Rivaroxaban for atrial fibrillation. A CT Abdomen & Pelvis revealed a large mesenteric haematoma and a contained sigmoid perforation secondary to compressive forces of the haematoma on the sigmoid artery, resulting in ischaemia. While mesenteric angiogram-guided embolisation initially controlled the active sigmoid artery bleed, the patient clinically deteriorated the following day warranting a laparotomy. This revealed an ischaemic sigmoid colon with contained faeculent material within the mesentery. An extended left hemi-colectomy with end-colostomy was performed. Despite optimal critical care input, the patient developed multi-organ failure and passed away one week later. Mesenteric haematoma should be considered as a rare complication in patients with sudden onset abdominal pain following ECSL; especially with concurrent anti-coagulation use.
