Ano-rectal melanoma is extremely rare and has dismal prognosis when compared to cutaneous melanomas. It presents as ano-rectal mass and patients usually complain of passing blood in stools. Being, a highly aggressive neoplasm, widespread metastasis is common, which can be seen even at the time of diagnosis. Here, we present a case report of ano-rectal melanoma in a 40-year old male, who presented with complaints of anal growth since one month. Initially, a clinical diagnosis of rectal carcinoma was suspected. However, biopsy of the growth showed histomorphological features of melanoma, which were confirmed on immunohistochemistry.

Primary leiomyoma of ovary are rare benign ovarian tumors. We present a rare case report of ovarian leiomyoma who was planned for laparotomy with a clinical diagnosis of subserosal uterine fibroid. Twenty three years old unmarried girl presented with heaviness and mass in lower abdomen, gravid uterus size of 20 weeks. Abdominal Ultrasonography raised suspicion of subserous fibroid. MRI pelvis was suggestive of ovarian neoplasm versus broad ligament fibroid. On laparotomy and removal of mass, histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed leiomyoma of ovary. Presently she is on follow up without any complaints. Ovarian leiomyoma is clinically often misdiagnosed and should be kept in differential diagnosis in lower abdominal masses.
