  • Title: Enterobius vermicularis: Can it be a possible pathogen in Bartholin gland abscess formation?
    Author: Dönmez ME, Özlü T, Yılmaz F, Ayaz E.
    Journal: J Obstet Gynaecol Res; 2014 Jan; 40(1):268-70. PubMed ID: 24033679.
    Abstract:
    The most frequent disorders of the Bartholin glands are cysts or abscesses. Bartholin gland abscesses occur generally as a result of polymicrobial infections or agents that cause sexually transmitted diseases. But as far as we know, no parasite has been previously reported among the infectious agents that are detected from the abscesses of the Bartholin gland. Here, we report a 45-year-old woman, in the Bartholin abscess aspirate of whom Enterobius vermicularis eggs were detected in between the inflammatory infiltrate by cytological examination.
