CONTEXT Malignant mixed Mullerian tumors are rare ovarian neoplasms that account for less than 2% of ovarian malignancies. They have a generally poor prognosis and often develop recurrent disease. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a malignant mixed Mullerian tumor with metastasis to the pancreas. The metastatic tumor was identified by endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspirat...

Mullerian duct anomalies (MDAs) are congenital defects of the female genital system that arise from the abnormal embryological development of the Mullerian ducts.1,2 These abnormalities include a wide range of developmental anomalies, resulting from failure of development, defective fusion or defects in regression of the septum during fetal development. A review of the prevalence of different t...

Congenital agenesis of the seminal vesicle (CASV) is frequently associated with congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD) or ipsilateral congenital vasoureteral communication. We reported two cases of a rare condition that the vas deferens open ectopically into Mullerian duct cyst associated with agenesis of the ipsilateral seminal vesicle. The diagnosis was confirmed by vasography. Transur...

Mullerian duct anomalies are the most common congenital anomalies of the reproductive system and septate uterus is the most frequently diagnosed Müllerian anomaly. The true incidence of Mullerian duct anomalies is difficult to state because some cases may be asymptomatic and there are pitfalls associated with various diagnostic methods. This is a case report of a 17-year-old primigravida with s...

Traditionally, epithelial ovarian, tubal, and peritoneal cancers have been viewed as separate entities with disparate origins, pathogenesis, clinical features, and outcomes. Additionally, previous classification systems for ovarian cancer have proposed two primary histologic groups that encompass the standard histologic subtypes. Recent data suggest that these groupings no longer accurately ref...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the surgical feasibility and the long-term anatomical and functional results and complication rates in patients with Mullerian aplasia who underwent vaginal reconstruction. METHODS A retrospective observational case series study over 8 years was conducted in King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre - Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. All cases diagnosed as Mullerian aplasi...

In addition to causing regression of the Mullerian duct in the male embryo, Mullerian Inhibiting Substance (MIS) inhibits the growth of epithelial ovarian cancer cells, which are known to be of Mullerian origin. Because the uterine cervix is derived from the same Mullerian duct precursor as the epithelium of the ovary, we tested the hypothesis that cervical cancer cells might also respond to MI...

Mullerian adenosarcoma following tamoxifen therapy is a rare condition. Our aim was to report the youngest patient in the literature with uterine mullerian adenosarcoma who was undergoing tamoxifen therapy for breast cancer. A premenopausal woman aged 38 years who was undergoing tamoxifen therapy for breast cancer, was admitted with symptoms of lower abdominal pain and irregular vaginal bleedin...

A 10-month-old male infant presented with bilateral inguinal hernia and left un-descended testis. During right herniotomy, both gonads were found on same side with mullerian duct structures. On naked eye examination, both gonads were normal looking. Excision of mullerian duct remnant and fixation of ectopic testis was made. Histopathological examination revealed that gonads were testicles. Pres...

We report a case of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 17 alpha-hydroxylase deficiency in a Chinese genotypic male patient. Despite the male genotype, normal female external genitalia were present and with the introduction of cyclical oestrogen therapy withdrawal bleeding occurred, confirming the presence of functional endometrial tissue. We believe this to be the first report of persistent ...
