  • Title: [Actinomycotic tubo-ovarian abscess in the presence of an intrauterine device].
    Author: Lunow E, Frenzke G.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1984; 106(18):1281-7. PubMed ID: 6506914.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of women with actinomycotic tubo-ovarian abscesses are reported. Both of the patients were users of intrauterine contraceptive devices. They were successfully treated by abdominal hysterectomy with salpingooophorectomy--in one cases appendectomy in addition--and pelvic drainage combined with antibiotic therapy. Aspects of nature, diagnosis, mode of infection and therapy of actinomycosis are discussed.
