INTRODUCTION Foetus-in-foetu is a very rare congenital abnormality where a malformed foetus is included within the body of another foetus. Less than 200 cases have been reported with over 80% occurring in the abdomen. Only three cases of cervical foetus in foetu have been reported. The present case of giant orocervical foetus-in-foetu appears to be an index case. CASE PRESENTATION This is a r...

Here, we report a case of CCA arising from adenomyosis. A 52-year-old postmenopausal Korean woman presented with complaints of vaginal bleeding and back pain. Endometrial biopsy revealed endometrial polyp with atrophic...

OBJECTIVE To estimate changes in levator hiatal dimensions after childbirth in women with and without ultrasonographically visible morphological abnormalities of the levator ani and to correlate those changes with delivery mode. METHODS A total of 296 nulliparous women were recruited. They were examined with four-dimensional translabial ultrasonography at 36-38 weeks of gestation and at 3-4 m...

Transverse vaginal septum is a congenital anomaly typically undiagnosed until menarche. Although the majority of such septa occur at the junction of the middle and upper thirds of the vagina, transverse vaginal septummay be found at any vaginal level (Fig.1). A complete transverse septum will block menstrual flow and is a cause of primary amenorrhea and hematocolpus accompaniedwith cyclic abdom...

A 64-year-old woman attended the clinic pelvic pain and persistent vaginal discharge. Ultrasonography revealed endometrial thickness 37*23 mm left cystic adnexal mass. During operation, solid mass grossly located cul-de-...
