[Splenosis: an unrecognized cause of pelvic pain]. / La splénose: cause méconnue d'algies pelviennes.

A case of painful pelvic splenosis is reported. This diagnosis concerns a patient suffering from pelvic pain who had had a splenectomy done thirteen years earlier. Two complementary examinations allowed us to make a precise pre-operatory diagnosis. The differential diagnoses are listed and endometriosis in particular. The authors think that the nodules of splenosis are probably a defense against infections affecting "splenic" patients. Consequently, the removal only of symptomatic ectopic splenic tissue is indicated.

[Ruptured lutein cyst associated with undiagnosed contralateral tubal pregnancy]. / Kyste lutéinique rompu associé à une grossesse tubaire controlatérale méconnue.

We are dealing with the case of a patient suspected of ectopic pregnancy. Laparoscopy showed a ruptured corpus luteum on the right side with haemoperitoneum. Four days after her discharge, she came back with a ruptured ectopic pregnancy in the outer third of the left tube. We emphasize the difficulties of an early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy and its etiology.

[Uterus didelphys with a blind hemi-vagina and homolateral renal agenesis]. / Utérus didelphe avec hémi-vagin borgne et agénésie rénale homolatérale.

The authors report a case of bicervical bicornuate uterus with a blind hemi-vagina associated with homolateral renal agenesis. A review of the embryology and the various etiopathogenic theories for this rare anomaly are presented and the therapeutic principles are discussed.
