Though a gynaecological condition, it can affect other systems in the body. objective: To describe the presentation, evaluation and treatment of endometriosis among gynaecological patients at a tertiary centre in Ilorin, Nigeria. Methods: A retrospective descriptive study of all women managed for endometriosis over a three and half year period at a tertiary centre. A list of all individuals with the condition was compiled, the case files were retrieved and the relevant data extracted. The result was presented in tables. results: Endometriosis constituted 1.3% of gynaecological admissions and 0.6% of gynaecology clinic visit during the study period. It affected reproductive-age women with mean age 32.8 years and modal age 31-35 years (35.3%). The women were mostly nulliparas (13;76.5%) with normal menstrual cycle (13;76.6%) and duration of menstruation (16;94.1%). Eleven (64.7%) had multiple gynaecological complaints and additional extra-pelvic lesions respectively. Sixteen (94.1%) had coexisting co-morbidity, of these 9 (56.3%) was in the thoracic region. The common medical treatment offered was gonadotrophin-releasing-hormone analogues (8; 47.1%), 6(35.3%) had medical while 11(64.7%) has combined medical and surgical management; diagnosis was by histology in 11(64.7%). conclusion: Endometriosis remains a disease of reproductive-age women commonly associated with coexisting non-gynaecologic manifestations necessitating combined medical and surgical management.Item Thoracic endometriosis syndrome at University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital(South African Thoracic Society, 2018) Adeoye, Peter; Adeniran, Abiodun; Adesina, Kikelomo; Ige, O.A; Akanbi, O.R; Imhoagene, Aleakhuei; Ibrahim, Kazeem; Ezeoke, GraceBackground. Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial tissue (stroma and functional glands) outside the uterine cavity in women of reproductive age. Ectopic sites are frequently located in the pelvis; extrapelvic sites have been reported in the gastrointestinal tract and thoracic cavity. Thoracic manifestation of endometriosis constitutes thoracic endometriosis syndrome (TES). Objectives. To examine the presentation pattern and outcome of in the management of TES. Methods. This study is a retrospective review of medical records of patients diagnosed with endometriosis at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital over a 3.5-year period from January 2014 to June 2017. Results. A total of 21 patients presented with endometriosis, of whom 8 (38.1%) presented with TES. The most common variety of TES was catamenial pleural effusion (CPE) accounting for 75%, followed by catamenial chest pain (37.5%). Two patients (25%) each presented with catamenial pneumothorax and catamenial haemoptysis, while 1 (12.5%) had catamenial surgical emphysema. Closed thoracostomy tube drainage plus chemical pleurodesis was the most frequent intervention technique, accounting for 62.5%. Conclusion. TES remains an uncommon entity, despite being the most common extrapelvic manifestation of endometriosis. CPE appeared to be the most common variant of TES in our environment. Currently available treatment options need to be improved, and more used made of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.Item Thoracic endometriosis syndrome at University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital(African journal of Thoracic and Critical Care Medicine, 2018) Adeoye, Peter; Adeniran, Abiodun; Adesina, Kikelomo; Ige, Olufemi; Akanbi, Oluwaseun; Imhoagene, Alaekhue; Ibrahim, Kazeem; Ezeoke, GraceBackground.
