Abstract

Two years after a left salpingo-oophorectomy for a tuboovarian mass from endometriosis and a right salpingostomy for hydrosalpinx, a 28-year-old, infertile woman underwent pelvic surgery for severe pain and progressive endometriosis. The closed, swollen tube arched over the posterior aspect of the uterus, bridging the two cornua; it was filled with blood and showed severe chronic salpingitis and widespread perisalpingeal endometriosis.
