Background.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder with heterogeneous etiology.
Typical features consist of oligo/anovulation, polycystic ovaries, and features of hyperandrogenism.
Pathogenesis is multifactorial, and positive family history may have a predisposition for disease development.
The syndrome is associated with multiple metabolic and nonmetabolic entities.
As the disease is involved with multiple adverse outcomes, the successful treatment is pivotal.
Among the more advanced options, the unilateral oophorectomy is considered as a last resort to alleviate the symptoms.
Case Presentation.
A 29-year-old female presented to us with oligomenorrhea, severe hirsutism, androgenic pattern hair loss, acne, increased skin pigmentation, and secondary subfertility.
On examination, she was obese with a body mass index (BMI) of 29.6 kg/m2.
She had evidence of acanthosis nigricans, androgenic pattern balding, acne, dorsal, supraclavicular fat deposition, and moderate-severe hirsutism.
Investigations confirmed excess right ovarian testosterone secretion which led to the ultimate management with right oophorectomy with successful alleviation of clinical features.
Conclusions.
The multifaceted medical treatment comprises the first-line therapy in PCOS.
Surgery is considered as a second-line option in resistant PCOS following failure of initial therapeutic options.
We report a case of resistant polycystic ovary syndrome with secondary subfertility and moderate-to-severe hirsutism who was successfully treated with unilateral oophorectomy with favorable results.
