Abstract
RODRIGUEZ-RUBIO, Paola C. and CAMPOS-ROSAS, Rogelio. Association of Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome in chronic phase and simple mesothelial cyst in an adult man. Case report. Cir. cir. [online]. 2022, vol.90, n.5, pp.697-699. Epub Nov 18, 2022. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.21000548.
Objective:
Presentation of a case little reported in the literature of Fitz-Hugh-Curtis Syndrome regarding gender and its association with simple intra-abdominal mesothelial cyst.
Method:
A bibliographic source was compiled regarding the unusual presentation of the syndrome in males and its association with the simple mesothelial cyst.
Results:
The affectation in men is infrequent, with only 10 reported cases. The simple peritoneal mesothelial cyst has an approximate incidence of 1/1,000,000.
Conclusions:
We are faced with an unusual presentation in terms of pathology and association, so it is important to carry out the case report.
Keywords : Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome; Mesothelial cyst.
