RARE INFLAMMATION OF FALLOPIAN TUBES: TWO CASES OF XANTHOGRANULOMATOUS SALPINGITIS

Öz

Xanthogranulomatous inflammation is a rare form of chronic inflammation which destructs normal tissues of the affected organs. The most frequent manifestations of this inflammation involve the gall bladder and kidneys. It is rarely reported in fallopian tubes. Xanthogranulomatous salpingitis might mimic malignancy by forming massive lesions, progress to systemic inflammation and even result in death. The awareness of this condition is clinically important. This manuscript describes the clinical and histopathological characteristics of two different cases of xanthogranulomatous salpingitis.

FALLOP TÜPLERİNİN NADİR İNFLAMASYONU: İKİ KSANTOGRANÜLOMATÖZ SALPENJİT OLGUSU

Öz

Ksantogranülomatöz inflamasyon, etkilediği organın normal dokusunu yıkıma uğratan kronik inflamasyonun nadir bir formudur. En sık böbrekte ve safra kesesinde karşılaşılan bu inflamasyon, fallop tüplerinde çok ender olarak bildirilmiştir. Kitlesel lezyon olarak ortaya çıkarak maligniteyi taklit etmesi ve ayrıca sistemik inflamasyona ilerleyerek ölümle sonuçlanabilmesi klinikte oldukça önemlidir. Ksantogranülomatöz salpenjit tanısı alan 2 ayrı olgu klinik ve patolojik özellikleri ile birlikte sunuldu.
