Fibroids are the commonest uterine neoplasms, occurring in 20% - 30% of women of reproductive age. In women who have pelvic masses of unknown cause, unusual manifestations of fibroids such as necrosis or degeneration may simulate a carcinoma or hydrometra resulting in problems with image interpretation. We report a case of an unsuspected large degenerated uterine fibroid in a lady mistakenly di...

Neoplasms of the fallopian tube are extremely uncommon. In addition, the incidence of a mature teratoma of the fallopian tube with incomplete uterine mediastinum is extremely low. In the current case report, we present a case of mature cystic teratoma of the fallopian tube with incomplete uterine mediastinum in a 23-year-old female. This mass was noted on computed tomography (CT) scan and sonog...

Giant uterine leiomyomas are extremely rare neoplasms and are challenging both diagnostically and therapeutically. A 49-year-old premenopausal female presented at our Department complaining of abdominal pain and distention for several years. Ultrasound (US), color Doppler US, abdominal computed tomography imaging after administration of contrast material, and abdominal magnetic resonance imagin...

Leiomyomas are the most common mesenchymal neoplasms. Smooth muscle cells with variable amounts of fibrous stroma make up these benign tumors. The tumor occurs frequently in uterus 20–30% women reproductive age. Uterine leiomyosarcoma (uLMS/LMS) is a rare cancer originating from smooth lining walls uterus. We report case postmenopausal 65 years presented retention urine, diagnosed as LMS on his...

Ewing sarcoma-primitive neuroectodermal tumors (ES/PNETs) constitute a family of neoplasms characterized by a continuum of neuroectodermal differentiations. ES/PNET of the uterus is rare. There are 48 cases of ES/PNET of the uterus published in the literature as far as we know. We describe a case of Ewing sarcoma of the uterus occurring in a 17-year-old woman presenting with a two-month history...

INTRODUCTION Primitive neuroectodermal tumor of the uterus is extremely rare. They occur as either pure primitive neuroectodermal tumors or admixed with neoplasms of mullerian origin. CASE PRESENTATION A case of uterine primitive neuroectodermal tumor with adenosarcoma in a 50-year-old Asian Indian woman is presented. Histologically, the neoplasm displayed perivascular pseudorosettes and occa...

Uterine tumors resembling ovarian sex cord tumors (UTROSCT) are rare, usually benign, polypoid or nodular neoplasms which generally arise in the fourth to sixth decade of life. We report a case of a 74-year-old woman who presented with vaginal bleeding and remarkable uterine enlargement. Abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was performed and a diagnosis of UTROSCT was mad...

Angiogenesis is a process of development of new vessels from the preexisting vascular network of a host. This is process which is seen in many physiological situations but it accompanies also a development of different lesions, i.e. neoplasms. Uterine fibroids are one of the most frequent lesions which affect human internal female genital tracts. Authors briefly review most important pro-angiog...

We report on an exceedingly rare case of cutaneous and uterine leiomyomatosis in a 58-year-old Caucasian woman associated with ovarian cystadenoma and complete deletion of the fumarate hydratase gene. All patients and their family members with verified mutation have to be regularly screened for associated neoplasms, in particular papillary renal cell carcinoma (HLRCC, hereditary leiomyomatosis ...
