The surgery was never needed as Gynapharm would have taken care of the cyst.

I wish her quick recovery and her family well

This is the problem with many of this private hospitals. Dabbling into matters beyond their area of expertise. Few questions are tho

1. Is the CMD of the said hosp a qualified gynaecologist?
2. Was there a general surgeon with him in theatre during the surgery?
3. What happens to fully confirming the patency and presence of the fallopian tubes with HSG before surgery?
4. Was it really worth all this trouble?

My take is that the CMD ff up big time, and will likely be found wanting. He is not just at risk of losing his license but will face a heavy fine (compensation) and possibly criminal action. I didn't expect this from a senior colleague with 30 years experience.

just sad

Re: Couple Set Out In Search Of Child But Got Intestines Twisted By Doctor (pics) by kinguwem: 10:21am On Oct 15, 2017
The story is pathetic, however there are some issues. We were not informed of the specialty of the doctor & the age of the woman.
If the lady had subfertility with ovarian cyst, all the investigations including an HSG should have been done before the surgery.
What was the cause of the subfertility? Probably pelvic inflammatory disease which resulted in the frozen pelvic making it difficult to see the uterus and fallopian tubes. Meaning they were not removed but were buried in the pelvic adhesions. The adhesions must have involved the bowels resulting in intestinal perforation while trying to free them. These are things that can happen during an abdominal surgery. The problem started when the surgeon did only a primary repair of the injured intestine without performing an ileostomy (opening a passage for faeces) to aid in healing of the bowel. During follow up, with the patient now having a distended abdomen he should have know that faeces were collecting in the abdominal cavity. He should have reopened the abdomen or refer the patient to a facility with a general surgeon.
The good thing is that the lady is still alive but her chances of conception is slim.

Pls readers should disregard this recommendation of Gynapharm as treatment for ovarian cyst. It is a herbal fraud.

The issue is, was the surgery necessary considering the size of the cyst. A single ultrasound scan is not enough to assess a cyst especially when it was done elsewhere. Removing a cyst is not a treatment for subfertility.
The couple were anxious and needed extensive counselling.

MW, am waiting for the person that would claim that s/he read the full story....

I read the full story, it's really Sad, medical terminology can be boring sometimes, don't worry, I understand.

Been together since 2012, no child, consulted a Dr for assistance, precisely a CONSULTANT, who suggested an operation after an ultrasound scan showed she has Ovarian cyst.
The Dr is believed to have removed the woman's 2 ovaries and Fallopian tubes------this implies she can only have Children via IVF or adopt one since she only has a womb left without Fallopian tubes or ovaries. Was said to have also made several cuts on her small intestine, Now she can't pass stool and is currently at Maitama General Hospital were she has had 2 surgeries done already to help save her life
This should be short enough for you, manage it.

Your first question should have been ''is the said 'CMD' a doctor''

i dont think the cyst was removed because of infertility. It was probably symptomatic otherwise there is no rationale behind removing a cyst as a treatment for infertility. Secondly the cost of the surgery was 45k. Hello. In abuja you are removing cyst with 45k and you dont expect complication? That is just about 100 euro. Either the doctor is not a doctor....no doctor in practise for 30yrs will remove cyst for 45k. And a post op patient is not moving bowel the next thing you gave liquid paraffin. That cant be an experienced doctor with 30yrs in practise. Even if you mistakenly rent the gut it is not going to be in multiple places and the two ovaries and tubes wont be missing. I can bet it.....he is not a doctor!!! And patient too that went to remove a cyst with 45k ....they were looking for the cheapest and the man took advantage of them. I wont stop saying this. HEALTHCARE IS EXPENSIVE. NIGERIANS MUST LEARN HOW TO PAY FOR IT. DONT BE PENNYWISE POUND FOOLISH.

MODIFIED: you dont always have to do ileostomy during a resection. Even the referral centre did the 2nd surgery without ileostomy and only went back for it after a breakdown of the anastomosis
