Pyosalpinx and hydrosalpinx in virginal adolescents: report of two cases.

[hirschsprung disease]

Pyosalpinx and hydrosalpinx are conditions mainly seen in adult women , but also among sexually active adolescents and can bring added hazard to fertility . However these conditions are very rare in childhood , as well as in adolescent girls who are not sexually active . We are presenting two rare cases of young girls in early puberty with hydrosalpinx and pyosalpinx . Both girls had a history of abdomino-pelvic surgery in childhood for congenital bowel anomalies and fecal incontinence . Such cases are good reminders that girls with known abdomino-pelvic anomalies and surgical procedures in childhood need long term follow-up , in particular when entering puberty and maturation . The two cases show how fallopian tubes can be indirectly affected and present in adolescence with serious problems needing surgical procedures and potentially threatening future reproductive system performances .
