Laparoscopic Radical Hysterectomy for Endometrial Carcinoma in a Woman with an Ectopic Pelvic Kidney.
Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of India 2023 Februrary
A 59-year-old post-menopausal female presented with complaints of per vaginal spotting for 3 months. Histopathological examination of contents of dilation and curettage revealed endometrial carcinoma (FIGO stage I), along with benign endocervical polyps. MRI also showed presence of left-sided structure indicative of ectopic pelvic kidney. The patient underwent laparoscopic radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and bilateral ilio-obturator lymph node dissection. Dissection was started along the left pelvic plane. The left pelvic kidney was seen, and left ureter was located and confirmed below the uterus. The patient withstood the procedure well. Anomalies of pelvic anatomy, such as a malpresentation of the kidney and ureter, may prove as surgical challenges while performing open and laparoscopic surgery. However, in depth preoperative imaging, meticulous intraoperative dissection and proper identification of surrounding structures reduces the risk of such complications.
