AbstractBackgroundLiposarcoma, which develops in adipose tissue, is one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas. It appears mostly in the lower limbs, particularly in the thigh and limb girdles, followed by the upper extremities, thoracoabdominal wall, and the internal trunk and retroperitoneum. Pleomorphic liposarcoma (PLS), a rare subtype of liposarcoma is considered a highgrade malignancy.Case presentationWe present a case of primary PLS in the left fallopian tube of a 47-year-old female. Ten months previously, she was diagnosed with PLS of the left fallopian tube in another hospital and had a wide excision of left fallopian tube mass, including total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for left fallopian tube PLS. Presently, she has developed a recurrence and metastasis of PLS in the pelvic and abdominal cavities.ConclusionThis may be the first case of primary fallopian tube PLS, wherein the prognosis of this patient was poor due to the high-grade malignancy of PLS.

Benign Tumours

Uterine lipoleiomyomas are rare benign tumours that are composed of various mixtures of smooth muscle and mature fat tissue. Leiomyomas, which arise primarily in the ovary, are extremely rare tumours that account for 0.5–1% of all benign ovarian tumours. To the best of our knowledge, we present the first case of an ovarian leiomyoma coexisting with a uterine lipoleiomyoma in the postmenopausal period. A 59-year-old, gravida 4, para 3, postmenopausal woman exhibited pelvic discomfort and increased frequency of micturition. A pelvic examination revealed a solid, tender mass on the left side that could not be clearly separated from the uterus. She underwent a laparotomy with an initial diagnosis of a left ovarian mass. She had previously undergone a total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. A histopathological examination revealed a uterine lipoleiomyoma, composed of variable amounts of smooth muscle cells and mature adipocytes and a right ovarian leiomyoma composed of interlacing bundles and fascicles of spindle cells. The coexistence of these two rare entities in the same individual may represent a common pathway as a stimulating agent. This case may help to clarify the pathogenesis of these lesions.

Primary carcinoma of fallopian tube is rare and accounts for only 0.7-1.5% of all gynecological malignancies. Majority of the patients are postmenopausal with mean age of 61 years. Study present a case of 48-year-old lady, who underwent total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo oophorectomy for a clinical diagnosis of fibroid uterus. Histopathological examination revealed, in addition to intramural fibroids, bilateral serous papillary adenocarcinoma of fallopian tube. We present this case due to its rarity.

Bone metastasis in cancer of uterine cervix, especially in the form of isolated bone involvement is a rare manifestation. Herein, we report the first case of isolated humeral metastasis in a known case of locally advanced cervical cancer. A fifty-six-year old female presented with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) Stage IV A squamous cell carcinoma of uterine cervix. She was treated with a combination of radiation and chemotherapy and then total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Seven months later, she developed an isolated lytic lesion in the left humerus, which turned out to be a bone metastatic lesion.

ABSTRACT Heterotopia is the occurrence of mature tissue at abnormal location. A very rare case of cartilaginous heterotopias in the broad ligament of a 47-year-old female is described. Literature contains very few references related to it. In this patient, there was no evidence of any malignancy in the abdomen or in any other part of the body, except cervical intraepithelial neoplasia changes in cervix. The peritoneal lesion was an incidental finding in this female who underwent total abdominal hysterectomy in view of low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion of cervix on cervical biopsy. A firm to hard, white-colored, tubular, branched structure, embedded in left broad ligament reaching till serosa of left fallopian tube and undersurface of left ovary was present. Histopathology showed mature cartilage of hyaline type with well-formed chondrocytes and lacunae with surrounding fibrosis with no evidence of cytological atypia, reactive inflammatory changes, or foreign body reaction. This may represent metaplastic lesions of secondary Müllerian system or benign neoplastic lesions (chondroma) of submesothelium. How to cite this article Kaur K, Kaur A, Chopra N, Kaur A.

Rare Tumours

Extrauterine endometrial stromal sarcomas (EUESSs) are rare tumours occurring without primary uterine involvement. They are classified as primary or secondary, depending on uterine involvement by stromal sarcomas. A 56-year-old woman who earlier underwent bilateral modified radical mastectomy for adenocarcinoma and total abdominal hysterectomy for endometrial stromal sarcoma, followed by tamoxifen therapy, presented with left loin pain. On evaluation, she had a left renal calculus with hydroureteronephrosis. Before percutaneous nephrolithotripsy, ureteroscopy revealed a polypoidal mass that was diagnosed as EUESS. The mass arose primarily within the ureteral lumen, with periureteric tissue uninvolved. She underwent left radical nephroureterectomy with adjuvant hormonal treatment. This is probably the first case of EUESS arising de novo from within the ureteral lumen without endometriosis, to be reported in medical literature. Immunohistochemistry facilitates earlier diagnosis. Cytoreductive surgery is the definitive treatment and multidisciplinary approach helps in overall survival of the patient.

Developmental anomalies involving Mullerian ducts are one of the most fascinating disorders in Gynaecology. The incidence rates vary widely and have been described between 0.1-3.5% in the general population. We report a case of a fifteen year old girl who presented with primary amenorrhea and lower abdomen pain, with history of instrumentation about two months back. She was found to have abdominal lump of sixteen weeks size uterus. On examination vagina was found to be represented as a small blind pouch measuring 2-3cms in length. A rectovaginal fistula (2x2 cms) was also observed. Ultrasonography of abdomen revealed bulky uterus (size 11.2x6 cm) with 150 millilitre of collection. Adiagnosis of hematometra with iatrogenic fistula was made. Vaginal drainage of hematometra was done which was followed by laparotomy. Peroperatively she was found to have a left side unicornuate uterus with right side small rudimentary horn. Left fallopian tube and ovary showed dense adhesions and multiple endometriotic implants. Both cervix and vagina were absent. Total abdominal hysterectomy was done and rectovaginal fistula repaired. The present case is reported due to its rarity as it involved both mullerian agenesis with cervical and vaginal agenesis along with disorder of lateral fusion. This is an asymmetric type of mullerian duct development in which arrest has occurred in different stages of development on two sides.

Metastasis to the peripheral skeleton, especially in the face of low stage disease, is rare. This report describes the case of a 77-year-old lady with stage IC disease who underwent curative total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oopherectomy 2 years prior to presenting with a painless gigantism of her fourth toe. A histologic diagnosis of dedifferentiated endometrial metastasis with sarcomatous differentiation was made following amputation of the toe. Osseous metastasis to bone is discussed in the context of endometrial carcinoma and the literature reviewed. This paper reports the first case of endometrial carcinoma metastasis presenting as gross swelling of a toe.

Abstract Background Hilus cell tumours is considered an uncommon branch of androgen producing neoplasms that accounts for < 5% of all ovarian tumours. They are mostly benign and have characteristic gross and microscopic features. Here we present the first case of a hilus cell tumour in association with bilateral serous cystadenomas. Case presentation A 65-year-old lady with no symptoms of virilization, presented with postmenopausal dysfunctional uterine bleeding and radiological investigations revealing bilateral ovarian cysts that required a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Gross and microscopic evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of hilus cell tumour associated with bilateral serous cystadenomas. Conclusions This was the first case of hilus cell tumour in association with bilateral serous cystadenomas of the ovaries. Although, majority of hilus cell tumours that have been reported in the literature were benign, further studies are required to determine the behavior of the disease.
