Objective: The aim of study is retrospective evaluation of the clinical and laboratory results, the treatments and complications in patients who were managed for tuboovarian abscess (TOA) clinic in our department. Materials and method: The records of 39 patients who has operated with the diagnosis of tuboovarian abscess between January 2003 and March 2007 were studied retrospectively. The patients clinical and laboratory results, operational methods applied and the complications raised were recorded. Results: 71.7% of the patients were multipar. The main complaints of the patients were pelvic pain (92.3%) and fever (69.6%). Prevelance of intrauterine device (IUD) usage, intrauterin or intraabdominal operations applied in the last 6 months, previous pelvic inflamatuary disease (PID) were as 48.7%, 33.3 %, 28.2%. As clinical and laboratory signs; in 69.2 % of patients high axillary fever (>38.3ºC), in %64.1 of patients leukocytosis, in 92.3 % of patients high sedimentation rate and in 89.7 % of patients high C-Reactive Protein (CRP) detected. For the patients who would like to preserve reproductivity; TOA abscess drainage is applied with a ratio of 71.8%. As resective surgery methods that were applied; total abdominal hysterectomy ratio was 12.8 %, unilateral salphingoophorectomy ratio was 10.3 %, bilateral salphingoophorectomy ratio was 5.1%. Intraoperative complications were observed in 5 (12.8%) patients (bowel injury) where as postoperative complication were observed in 4 (10.3%) patients (wound enfection and atelectasia). Conclusion: Due to minimizing decreased fertility and high morbidity following TOA; it is important for the women health to apply early diagnosis and early surgery.
