Abstract
Introduction: dysmenorrhea is a common gynecological complaint, which can be primary or secondary.
Case: 19-year-old patient with severe secondary dysmenorrhea, operated for an adenomyotic cyst.
Discussion: rare causes of secondary dysmenorrhea include mullerian malformations and adenomyotic cysts. The diagnosis
and management is a challenge. Laparoscopic approach in tackling those pathologies is an acceptable treatment modality.
Conclusion: Laparoscopy is a safe and adequate, diagnostic and therapeutic method in the management of adenomyotic cysts.
Dysmenorrhea is a common gynecological complaint, which can be primary or secondary. Diagnosis and management of rare
cases of dysmenorrhea is a challenge for clinicians. We present a case of a 19 year old patient with severe secondary dysmenorrhea,
operated for an adenomyotic cyst with a laparoscopic approach. Rare causes of secondary dysmenorrhea include mullerian
malformations and adenomyotic cysts. Laparoscopic approach in tackling those pathologies is an acceptable treatment modality. In
conclusion laparoscopy is a safe and adequate, diagnostic and therapeutic method in the management of adenomyotic cysts.
Keywords: Dysmenorrhea, adenomyotic cyst, laparoscopy, hysteroscopy
