[Mature intraligamentary pregnancy with florid salpingitis tuberculosa (author's transl)].
Reported is a case of a 32 year old para II where an intraligamentary extrauterine pregnancy was terminated by caesarean section at term following spontaneous rupture of the amniotic sack. The newborn male weighed 3600 g, there were no malformations. There was a transient phase of asphyxia. Histologic examination of the placenta, that had developed in the mesosalpinx, the Fallopian tube and the uterus that had been amputated supracervically, showed to our surprise a florid caseating tuberculosis of the mucosa of uterus and Fallopian tube and also in a circumscribed area of the basal plate. After an initial uneventful course the newborn developed clinical manifestations of connatal tuberculosis on the 16th day of life. Whereas the mother died a few days after delivery, the baby survived the infection, this certainly was due in large part to the prophylactic tuberculostatic treatment that had been initiated immediately after the diagnosis of tuberculosis was made on account of histology. The case of an extrauterine pregnancy at term reported here differs from most of the previous reports by a) the site of the pregnancy, b) the development of a mature living newborn without malformations and in respect to b) it differs from all previous publications by the existing active caseating tuberculous salpingitis and endometritis of the mother, and the connatal tuberculosis of the newborn with its successful treatment.
