In the first case, the patient deliberately concealed the history of her illness, deliberately gave inconsistent data and thereby made it extremely difficult to diagnose. When the rupture of the fetal beetle in the abdominal cavity was clear, the patient resisted any surgical intervention and died. In the second case, the rupture of the fetal baby also occurred in the abdominal cavity, blood poured out, accumulated in the Douglas space, and the evacuation of the blood cyst per vaginam ended in the patient's recovery. In the third, an accidental fetus ruptured in the broad ligament and the egg now died.

Broad ligament ectopic pregnancy is a rare and serious form of extrauterine pregnancy with a high risk of maternal mortality. There are no specific clinical features. Ultrasonography may help in diagnosis but definitive diagnosis is made only during surgery. A 20-year-old woman with previous 2 abortions presented with acute abdomen. She had no history of amenorrhoea but there was history of two episodes of bleeding in the last month at an interval of 14 days, each episode lasting for two-three days. The last episode of bleeding was 10 days back. Her urine pregnancy test was done and it was positive. There was marked abdominal tenderness with guarding and rigidity. Per vaginal examination revealed marked tenderness in the right fornix and cervical motion tenderness, uterus size could not be assessed due to tenderness.  It was diagnosed as a case of ruptured ectopic pregnancy. Since she was haemodynamically unstable, emergency laparotomy was done. She had a right sided broad ligament ectopic pregnancy which had ruptured. The tissue was completely removed and haemostatic sutures were taken. High index of clinical suspicion, early diagnosis and prompt surgery is the key to management.

From the history of surgical practice in general and surgery of the abdominal cavity in particular, there are not many departments, the development of which would take as much work as the department of ectopic pregnancy. We find the first information about cases of ectopic pregnancy at Carpens in 1522.

Gestation outside the uterine cavity in which the implantation occurs in any tissue other than the endometrium is referred as ectopic pregnancy. The most places for occurring ectopic pregnancy (97% of cases) are the fallopian tubes including ampulla (55%), isthmus (25%), and fimbria (17%), and in 3% of patient’s ectopic pregnancy occurs in the abdominal cavity, ovary, or cervix. The tubal twin ectopic pregnancy is a rare condition, and the first unilateral tubal twin was reported by De Ott in 1891, and the first live twin tubal ectopic pregnancy was reported in 1944. A live tubal twin ectopic pregnancy is a very rare condition and among >100 reports of tubal twin pregnancies, till now, only 8 cases were live. Early diagnosis and treatment of women with tubal twin ectopic pregnancy is very important and may decrease the risk of tubal rupture. I present three cases of tubal twin ectopic gestation. In the first case, spontaneous unilateral live tubal twin ectopic gestation. The second and third cases spontaneous ruptured twin ectopic gestation. All three cases were successfully managed and there was no history of assisted reproductive techninique fertilization or pelvic inflammatory disease.

Abstract Low-grade B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue involving the kidney is rare. We report a series of 3 cases. The first case occurred in an 83-year-old woman who presented with back pain. The second case was a 53-year-old man with a history of sarcoidosis who was found, in the course of evaluation of sarcoidosis, to have a right renal mass. The third case occurred in a 72-year-old man who had a history of periorbital mucosa–associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma and had been treated with surgery and radiation 1 year prior to this presentation. Histologically, all 3 patients showed infiltrate of uniform small-to-medium–sized lymphocytes with irregular nuclear contours and abundant cytoplasm resembling centrocytes or monocytoid lymphoid cells. The first patient received chemotherapy without complications. The second patient underwent a partial nephrectomy and was asymptomatic at the subsequent follow-up. The third patient developed a pulmonary embolism following nephrectomy, and further follow-up is not available.
