Assessment of these patients wascarried out carefully before starting the endoscopic procedures.A full history was taken which was followed by thoroughgeneral, abdominal and pelvic examination than laparoscopywas performed under G/A.Results: The mean age ranged from 18 to 42 years. Amongthem 51(68%) patients were aged between 21 to 30 years. 51(68%) patients had primary infertility and 24 patients (32%) hadsecondary infertility.44 (58%) had normal tubes, 08 (10.67%)had some form of peritubal adhesion and 14 (18.67%) hadtubal block, either unilateral or bilateral. 52 (69.33%) patientshad normal pelvic peritoneum, 16 (21.33%) had pelvicadhesion probably from pelvic inflammatory diseases and07 (9.33%) had frank endometriosis. 23 (30.66%) had normalovaries, 32 (42.66%) had polycystic ovaries (pcos), 06 (08%)had periovarian adhesions, 04 (5.33%) patients had simpleovarian cysts, while 02 (2.66%) had endometriotic (chocolate)cysts.Conclusion: Ovarian pathology was the highest pelvicabnormality (69%) followed by tubal pathology (38%) anduterine pathology (29%)
ABSTRACT
Ventricular septal rupture is a rare complication of acute myocardial infarction with important hemodynamic consequences. Without a rapid diagnosis and correction by surgical intervention, the short-term mortality of these patients is higher than 90%. Early diagnosis is based on clinical examination and transthoracic echocardiography. Transcatheter closure of ventricular septal rupture in selected patients may save lives. We report a patient with ventricular septal rupture in acute myocardial infarction that was closed by an Amplatzer device
