We present a case of a 95-year-old female with an inguinal hernia containing a huge ovarian tumor (20 cm in diameter). Patient: Because of the large inguinal bulge, the patient experienced difficulty in walking. She recalled that the inguinal bulge was approximately 2 cm in diameter when she first noticed it 35 years ago; in addition, it was reducible at that time. Abdominal CT scan revealed a solid inguinal tumor, which was possibly receiving its blood supply from the left ovarian artery. Laparoscopic exploration revealed that the hernia sac was covered by dense adhesions and contained the solid ovarian tumor as well as the left pelvic infundibular ligament. Following adhesiolysis, the ligament was transected laparoscopically. The ovarian tumor was removed through a skin incision. The redundant skin was trimmed; then, an open hernia repair was performed, using woven mesh. Her postoperative course was uneventful, and she was discharged on the fifth postoperative day. The histopathologic diagnosis of the tumor was a Sertoli cell tumor of the ovary. Conclusions: A steadily enlarging ovarian neoplasm can become incarcerated in the inguinal canal for a long period of time without strangulation occurring. Although it is rare, an ovarian inguinal hernia should be considered when a groin mass is encountered in an adult female.","PeriodicalId":325241,"journal":{"name":"Japanese Journal of Gynecologic and Obstetric Endoscopy","volume":"325 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122321133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Clinical data of patients with early-stage cervical cancer treated with laparoscopic radical hysterectomy, between January 2013 and June 2018, were collected and retrospectively reviewed. The patients were classified into 2 groups: normal (patients without postoperative complications) and complication (patients who experienced postoperative complications) groups. Their postoperative leukocyte/neutrophil counts and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels (inflammatory markers) were evaluated. Finally, we investigated the clinical utilities of the inflammatory markers to predict postoperative complications using receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Results: Fifty-three Japanese women underwent laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for early-stage cervical cancer. Postoperative complications occurred in 10 patients (18.9%). In the normal group, inflammatory markers peaked on postoperative day (POD) 1 and declined thereafter. Similarly, in the complication group, inflammatory markers peaked on POD 1 and declined on POD 3. However, they increased again thereafter, resulted in peaks on PODs 9–15. When the 2 groups were compared, inflammatory markers were significantly higher in the complication group than in the normal group. A leukocyte count >7280/μL, neutrophil count >6030/μL, or CRP level >0.4 mg/dL on POD 6 exhibited high sensitivities and specificities for the prediction of postoperative complications: leukocyte count (83.3%, 87.5%), neutrophil count (83.3%, 87.5%), or CRP level (100%, 56.3%), respectively. The negative predictive values of these markers were 93%, 93%, and 100%, respectively. Conclusion: Inflammatory responses after laparoscopic radical hysterectomy in Japanese women with early-stage cervical cancer were evaluated. Leukocyte/neutrophil counts or CRP levels on POD 6 are useful to predict postoperative complications, allowing for safe and early discharge.","PeriodicalId":325241,"journal":{"name":"Japanese Journal of Gynecologic and Obstetric Endoscopy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122905470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The patient was a 65-year-old woman with an unremarkable past history. She was referred to our hospital because a cervical cancer screening revealed a high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL). A cervical biopsy revealed squamous cell carcinoma in situ, which was confirmed by cervical conization. Moreover, she complained of an enlarged lymph node in her left neck. For this reason, she was referred to the department of otorhinolaryngology six days after the conization. Although fine-needle aspiration cytology of the cervical lymph node was performed twice, the results were negative. Because she refused a lymph node biopsy, antibiotics were given under the presumptive diagnosis of cat scratch disease. We recommended a total laparoscopic hysterectomy for the cervical CIS after providing informed consent. During the procedure, we biopsied a right obturator lymph node, which was noted to be enlarged with a pelvic MRI. Histologic examination revealed no residual tumor in the cervix; however, the lymph node was diagnosed as a grade 2 follicular lymphoma. She was subsequently diagnosed as a stage III malignant lymphoma (Ann Arbor classification) and is currently receiving R-CHOP chemotherapy in department of hematology. In our experience, laparoscopic lymphadenectomy is useful not only for the diagnosis of gynecological malignancies but also for the diagnosis of non-gynecological malignancies. Laparoscopic surgery can determine the cause of lymph node enlargement within the scope of less invasive surgery.","PeriodicalId":325241,"journal":{"name":"Japanese Journal of Gynecologic and Obstetric Endoscopy","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122473744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
