The paper describes a case report of a 30-year-old woman with infertility and adenomyosis, evaluated using transvaginal ultrasound showing a diffusely enlarged uterus with thickened uterine wall, and then treated surgically by laparotomy using the Osada technique (triple-flap) with the aim of removing adenomyosis tissue while maintaining uterine function. Around one month after surgery, an ultrasound examination was planned, followed by three cycles of GnRH agonist therapy (Tapros). The key outcome is presented mainly at the level of the treatment pathway rather than quantified fertility results, and the report is limited by being a single-patient case. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis — it reports laparotomy using the Osada triple-flap technique for a woman with adenomyosis-related infertility followed by GnRH agonist therapy.

Abstract

Introduction: Adenomyosis became challenging in the gynecological field and healthcare economic aspect. The prevalence of adenomyosis is widely ranged in different countries. Infertility is one of the frightening complications. Thus a radical adenomyosis tissue removal method using the triple-flap (the Osada technique) could be done. Using this technique the adenomyosis tissue can be removed as much as possible while maintaining normal uterine function. Thus, in this case, report, we performed a woman diagnosed with adenomyosis underwent the surgery with Osada technique. Case description: A 30-year-old woman went to the medical care of Kasih Medika. She has been married for 4,5 years and did not have any children. She had a history of abdominal pain every menstruation, and it has persisted since 2 months ago even though not on the menstrual schedule. Transvaginal sonographic examination revealed a diffusely enlarged uterus and thickening of the uterine wall. A laparotomy is performed using the Osada technique (triple flap. After that, around 1 month after surgery, the patient will undergo an ultrasound examination and the patient will undergo the GnRH agonist therapy (Tapros) 3 times. Conclusion: Adenomyosis is one of the challenging diseases. Adequate treatment must be done to minimalize the infertile probability Laparotomy with the Osada technique could be done. Infertility examination in both couples also must be done. Undergoing the GnRH agonist therapy also can give a better result for the patient.
