Blue Urine Following Chromopertubation: Don’t Overlook!!!
Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: Methylene blue has been widely used for a number of medical and surgical indications. In gynaecology it is mainly used to check integrity of bladder during surgery and the patency of fallopian tubes. Case report: Here we report a case of bilateral ovarian cyst with secondary infertility undergoing laparoscopic bilateral ovarian cystectomy and chromopertubation using methylene blue. Post operatively the patient had aqua blue colour urine denoting milder form of methaemoglobinemia while the vitals remained stable. Conclusion: Anticipation and early recognition can prevent fatal complications. The possible complications of methylene blue should be borne in mind whenever chromopertubating a patient of infertility.
