Siegel, M.D. Sent: Monday, March 12, 2007 12:45 PM To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: Gyn: recurrent Bartholin Gland cyst/abscess 30 YO P0000 Had Bartholin Gland problems years ago--no records. Word X 2, then marsupialization--all well for 7 years. 10 days ago, on a Friday, saw another gyn who tried to do something in office (no records). Seen on a Monday afterwards (one week ago)--3 cm. cystic, non-inflammed mass. I thought that I could do an office Word--but only got a bit of clear liquid and it was too painful. OR Tuesday--marsupialization done--the cyst walls weren't well defined for 360 degrees. Today seen with 3 cm. mass that literally just drained spontaneously 30 minutes before her visit. Sutures intact, can't really expose the lumen well due to discomfort. I suspect she somehow has re-obstructed or may have septae in there (none in OR). My instinct is to leave this alone if possible and reassess in a few weeks, with the thought of another marsupialization under more ideal conditions. Any ideas? Garry -- Garry E.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
