World J Clin Cases. 2020 Dec 06;8(23):6206-6212 Authors: Han X, Zhang ST Abstract BACKGROUND: Massive hemorrhagic ascites caused by endometriosis is exceedingly rare, and the treatment strategy remains controversial. Here, we report a case of endometriosis with massive hemorrhagic ascites treated with a novel triple therapy including conservative surgery, gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, and then dienogest. CASE SUMMARY: A 28-year-old nulliparous patient was admitted to Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, and exploratory laparoscopy was performed. A total of 9500 mL of brown ascites was aspirated from the pelvic cavity, the bilateral ovaries strongly adhered to the posterior of the uterus and were fixed to the pelvic floor, and endometriotic cysts were not observed in either ovary. The pelvic and abdominal peritonea were covered with patchy red, white, and brown endometriotic lesions and defects. Partial surgical resection of endometriotic lesions on the peritoneum was performed while we simultaneously collected multiple peritoneal biopsies. The final pathological diagnosis was endometriosis coupled with hemorrhagic necrotic tissue. CONCLUSION: Postoperative injection of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist was provided three times, followed by dienogest administration, and we will continue to follow up with this ongoing treatment.
