The Filshie clip for laparoscopic adnexal surgery.

BACKGROUND: Gynecologic endoscopic procedures are increasingly common and require the ability to control large vascular structures. METHOD: The Filshie clip is a silicone-lined, titanium occlusive device, originally designed and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for surgical contraception. This device also has the potential for occluding vascular structures during laparoscopic surgery. EXPERIENCE AND RESULTS: We describe a salpingectomy, an excision of bilateral hydrosalpinges, and a salpingo-oopherectomy. We performed all procedures laparoscopically using this device as the primary modality for assuring hemostasis. CONCLUSION: The Filshie clip is a useful and economical device for assuring hemostasis during gynecologic endoscopic surgery.

Diagnostic challenge of abdominal pain in late pregnancy--a case of adnexal torsion.

Clinical evaluation of pregnant patients with abdominal pain can be confusing, because the examination is usually hampered by the anatomical displacement of abdominal organs by the gravid uterus, and difficulty in localisation of pain. Delayed surgical intervention could result in increased maternal morbidity and poor fetal outcome. We report on a case of recurring acute abdominal pain in pregnancy, which led to diagnostic difficulties and resulted in a diagnostic laparotomy and caesarean delivery.
