An extremely rare case of complete invagination of the vermiform appendix in a 45-year-old female patient caused by endometriosis is presented. Difficulties of preoperative diagnostics and determination of treatment tactics in the absence of specific clinical and instrumental data are demonstrated.

Endometriotic Cyst

Endometriosis is a relatively common condition among women, and pancreatic endometriosis has been reported on rare occasions. Such pancreatic lesions are difficult to diagnose and distinguish from other cystic lesions of the pancreas preoperatively. This report describes a case of pancreatic endometriosis in a 51-year-old female patient. Imaging demonstrated an enlarging cyst with findings concerning for a mucinous neoplasm. The patient underwent robotic distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy. Histopathology revealed an endometriotic cyst. Pancreatic endometriosis can be difficult to distinguish from other lesions of the pancreas. Surgical resection should be undertaken in cases where malignancy is suspected.

The Relationship

We present a rare case of a lipoleiomyoma which was discovered incidentally in a hysterectomy specimen of a 74-year old female patient who underwent surgery for a biopsy proven serous adenocarcinoma of the uterus. Lipoleiomyomas represent uncommon, usually benign soft-tissue tumors, generally found in obese menopausal as well as postmenopausal women aged 50 to 70 years. The reported incidence varies from 0.03\% to 0.2\%. The relationship between lipoleiomyomas and gynecologic malignancies has only been reported in a few cases. We report this case of lipoleiomyoma due to its rarity and its association with a serous adenocarcinoma in our patient.

Microscopic Studies

An 82-year-old female patient with painful, watery, and itchy eyes was admitted for examination at the Sri Guru Ramdas Institute of Medical Sciences and Research. During the examination, a number of tick larvae were found attached to the patient’s upper and lower eyelid margins. The ticks were manually removed and the patient was treated with topical ciprofloxacin eye ointment. Microscopic studies revealed that all specimens belonged to a single species Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus Canestrini (Acari: Ixodidae) which parasitizes livestock. Although other cases of ocular infestations have been reported, this is the first in North India involving R. (B.) microplus. It is speculated that the patient’s occupation, surrounding conditions and living propensities made her susceptible to contamination by ticks.

A 52-year-old female patient, para 2 live 2, who attained surgical menopause 10 years back, presented to the outpatient department (OPD) with complaints of white discharge per vagina for 6 months, which was watery in consistency and was not associated with foul smell or itching vulva. She had history of hysterectomy done for fibroid uterus 10 years back. On examination, she was afebrile and vital signs were within normal limits. Per abdomen examination, was normal, while, per speculum examination revealed a watery discharge per vaginum. The per vaginal examination revealed a firm, non-tender, globular mass felt arising from the vaginal vault and the mass did not bleed on touch. A globular mass of size 3 x 4 cms, pinkish white in colour, was seen occupying the whole of the vaginal vault with curdy white precipitates in the vaginal rugosities as well as over the mass.

Pancreatic pseudocysts comprise more than 80 % of the cystic lesions of the pancreas. Here we report a 45-year-old female patient who developed a symptomatic pseudocyst in the remnant pancreas following classical pancreaticoduodenectomy for periampullary carcinoma. The pancreatic anastomosis was pancreaticogastrostomy- Dunking technique. She underwent endoscopic cystogastrostomy. Recurrence should always be ruled out before diagnosing pseudocyst in remnant pancreas following pancreaticoduodenectomy for malignant tumors.

Wound Discharge

In surgical practice a great number of methods are used to assess the course of the wound process; however, the search for more informative tests to reveal the nature of the wound process and reparative regeneration is still relevant. One of the directions of this search is the quantitative determination of the specific components participating in the reparative tissue regeneration in the wound discharge. Such methods include the detection of protein, collagen and its derivatives, glycosaminoglycans etc. in the wound discharge.
