Abstract Background Maldescended ovaries are a rare condition. Despite its different embryologic development with the uterus, maldescended ovary is usually accompanied by uterine malformations and is found during the course of infertility. In other cases, it may be incidentally diagnosed in examinations due to abdominal pain or in a survey of finding paraneoplastic origin. Probable immune-related developmental conditions are associated with this abnormality; sometimes cross-reaction with other immune-related diseases is possible. Case presentation Here, the probable paraneoplastic origin is surveyed for a patient with coexisting inflammatory myositis and myasthenia gravis. According to this survey non recognized Mullerian duct and ovarian anomalies were found. Conclusions Knowledge about this anatomical abnormality is helpful for clinicians to prevent misdiagnosis and improper management. Moreover, understanding the probability of accompanying other conditions such as immune-related and neuromuscular junction disorders with Mullerian duct anomalies can offer a comprehensive insight.

Congenital Mullerian duct anomalies are conditions involving the female genital tract. Cases of complex Mullerian duct anomalies with involvement of the renal system are rare. Occasionally, these cases can be associated with obstetrical complications. Cervical prolapse infrequently complicates pregnancy, and an association between uterine malformations and cervical prolapse has not been cited in the literature. We describe the case of a primigravid patient at 38 weeks of gestation noted to have cervical prolapse during evaluation for preeclampsia and labor induction. Obstetrical ultrasound at presentation to the labor and delivery suite revealed a high suspicion for a bicornuate uterus. The patient was delivered by cesarean section due to obstruction of the lower uterine segment of the gravid uterus. Further evaluation post-partum revealed a bicornuate bicolis uterus and renal agenesis. Pregnancies in patients with bicornuate bicollis uterus can be complicated by obstruction of the gravid uterus, resulting in cervical prolapse and necessitating cesarean section.

Aim: The aim of this study was to analyze various presentations of mullerian duct anomalies & to determine its impact on reproductive outcome. Setting: Gynae Unit 1, Allied Hospital, PMC Faisalabad. Period: from 01-06-2007 to 31-12-2008. Design: Case Series Methods: A total of 40 patients were included in study. Their detailed history & examination was done. Relevant investigations TVS, IVU & MRI were done to diagnose mullerian duct malformations. Results: 16 patients (40%) presented with obstructive genital tract malformation while 8 patients (20%) presented with absence of uterus and vagina. Among those who presented in pregnancy, malpresentation (15%) was the commonest presentation. Conclusion: Obstructive anomalies of genital tract are commonest among mullerian duct malformations and are mostly diagnosed at puberty. Other uterine malformations may remain asymptomatic & may have both normal and adverse pregnancy outcome.

Abstract Background A persistent Müllerian duct syndrome is a rare disorder of sexual differentiation characterized by the presence of the female reproductive system in a normal male. Case presentation Herein, we report a case of a 35-year-old father with the persistent Müllerian duct syndrome and seminoma in the right undescended testis. The exploratory laparotomy was performed and revealed a mass in the right undescended testis and Müllerian duct structures. Conclusions For patients with cryptorchidism and inguinal hernia, the persistent Müllerian duct syndrome should be considered, and radiological evaluation of the genitourinary system is recommended for early diagnosis of persistent Müllerian duct syndrome. The persistent Müllerian duct syndrome is usually detected during surgical operation, and it is considered a risk factor for developing testicular malignancies.

Vertebral and basilar arteries are the major blood suppliers of the brain. They supply nearly one-third of the brain. Congenital absence of these arteries is a rare condition. Usually, this condition presents with stroke like presentation. This is a case presentation of a 40-year-old lady who was diagnosed as congenital agenesis of vertebra-basilar arteries. This lady was presented with intraventricular hemorrhage. Subsequently the diagnosis was made by cerebral angiogram.

Abstract Background: müllerian duct remnant is a disease which was reported infrequently. The cyst’s size in this case is even rarer. We performed surgery on this patient and introduced the procedure in detail. Case presentation: We present a case that a 58-year-old patient with a huge müllerian duct remnant between the prostate and rectum. Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography scan of abdominal and pelvic showed that a cystic lesion with a size of 14×10×10 cm in the pelvic cavity. There were no surgical contraindications were found after some related preoperative examinations, so the laparoscopic surgery was performed. The features of the mass of postoperative pathologic examination presented that the characteristics are consistent with the Müllerian duct. Conclusions: Laparoscopic excision is a perfect way to manage müllerian duct remnant. This way can get good outcome and minimize the damage to the patient.
