Fibroids are muscular tumours, the most common benign tumours in females and typically found during the middle and later reproductive years. It originate from the smooth muscle layer of the uterus. Another medical term is leiomyoma or just myoma. It can be as small as an apple seed or as big as a melon. In unusual cases they can become very large. With the advent of high frequency ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging it is now possible to diagnose such cases at an early stage1. Asymptomatic uterine fibroids often left untreated. Giant fibroids are the fibroids weighing 11.4kg2,3 or more. Such a fibroid may appear as a solitary tumor or as a conglomerate mass of uterine fibroids presenting as a single uterine tumor4. Giant uterine fibroid are very rare neoplasm and represents a great diagnosis and therapeutic challange. This article illustrates a case of 34 years old woman presented with a four year history of slowly increasing abdominal size with rapid increase in the last one year associated with shortness of breath and severe anaemia by a painless lump. Total abdominal hysterectomy was performed; histologically the specimen was 9.5 kg benign uterine leiomyoma. The patients postoperative evaluation was uneventful and she went back abroad in two months time following operation.Bangladesh J Obstet Gynaecol, 2012; Vol. 27(1) : 27-30

Pyomyoma, or suppurative leiomyoma, is a rare but serious complication of uterine fibroids. The mechanism of pyomyoma is an infection caused by microorganisms coming from ascending or hematogenously on the ground of necrosis following ischemia and infarction. It can be seen during the course of pregnancy or after abortion and birth. It can also develop after uterine instrumentation or due to cervical stenosis. Patients often present with pain and fever. It should be considered in cases had no other etiology of fever and had a history of uterine fibroids. Diagnosis and treatment are often delayed due to non-specific presentation and imaging findings. This delay increases the risk of mortality and morbidity such as fertility loss. In the vast majority of these cases, total abdominal hysterectomy is required. The case we presented is a premenopausal and sexually inactive woman without any history of pregnancy or uterine instrumentation or immunocompromised. This patient is the 5th case of pyomyoma without risk factor and the 3rd case that was successfully treated with myomectomy. Knowing the proper treatment of pyomyoma will be beneficial to prevent potential mortality and morbidity.

Symptomatic Uterine Fibroid

Background: Fibroids are the most common benign tumours of smooth muscle cells of uterus in females and typically found during the middle and later reproductive years. As fibroid is an estrogen and progesterone dependent tumour, it gradually decreases in size during starting of menopause. The objective of this presented study was to determine management options among fibroid uterus patients. Methods: 50 number of patients were included in this study those who’s age of 20-55, with symptomatic uterine fibroid and undergone hysterectomy or myomectomy. Postmenopausal, Pregnancy and Asymptomatic fibroid were excluded from this study. Results: The study showed that 52 percent of patient having fibroid uterus were belonged to 31-40 years of age. The mean age was 41.2±6.07. The majority 74% of patients in this study presented with menstrual abnormalities, 40% presented with abdominal lump. Dysmenorrhoea was 26%, 6% patient had primary subfertility and 14% secondary subfertility. Total Abdominal Hysterectomy (TAH) with unilateral salpingo- oophorectomy done in 10% cases, TAH with bilateral salpino-oophorectomy in 22% cases, non descent vaginal hysterectomy in 6% cases, myomectomy done in 20% cases and polypectomy was done in 2% cases. Conclusion: Uterine fibroids are very common in women and frequently in late reproductive and perimenopausal years. It is also a common gynecological problem in our country, which frequently disturbs the lives of woman. Women now have choice of therapies for the treatment of fibroids.

Introduction: Uterine inversion is a condition in which the uterus turns inside out with prolapse of fundus through the cervix into or outside vagina. Chronic inversion cases are rare. We present a rare case of chronic uterine inversion associated with uterine fibroids. Case Report: A 42 year old female, P3 L3 , was admitted with complains of menorrhagia and pain 3 3 lower abdomen for 1 month. Speculum examination revealed a fleshy polyp filling whole of vagina. Upon per vaginal examination size of mass could not be assessed and cervical lips could not be felt. So, a provisional diagnosis of fibroid polyp was made. Per-operatively inversion of tube and ovaries along with a sessile submucosal fundal fibroid polyp of size 10 x 8 cm was found. A revised diagnosis of chronic uterine inversion with sessile fibroid polyp was made. Patient then underwent Total Abdominal Hysterectomy with bilateral Salpingooophrectomy. Conclusion: Chronic inversion should be kept as a differential diagnosis in a patient with history of irregular bleeding associated with dragging pain of lower abdomen and feeling of a mass coming out of introitus. Pre operatively it should be differentiated from fibroid polyp, uterine prolapse and prolapsed hypertrophied ulcerated cervix.

Pelvic Congestion

Chronic pelvic pain is a common gynecological problem with many causes and may account for approximately 10% outpatient gynecological visit. Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS) is defined as a condition characterized by congestion of the pelvic veins visible on selective ovarian venography in multiparous premenopausal women with a history of chronic pelvic pain for more than six months. We report a case of PCS in 35 years old multiparous lady complaining of chronic pelvic pain for one year. The pain was worsened by sitting and standing position. Other general symptoms were present such as dysmenorrhea, rectal discomfort and urinary frequency. On examination patient was depressed, there was abdominal and pelvic tenderness. Pelvic ultrasound and Doppler examination showed dilated and tortuous ovarian veins and dilated tortuous arcuate veins in the myometrium. An ovarian cyst was present and uterus was enlarged. In this case total abdominal hysterectomy was done although ideal treatment for PCS is ovarian vein embolisation by interventional radiology which is not available in our country.

Leiomyoma Of The Uterus

Leiomyoma of the uterus is the most common type of tumor affecting the female pelvis and arises from uterine smooth muscle. The size of leiomyoma varies from microscopic to giant; giant myoma is exceedingly rare. We report an unusual case of a large, cystic, uterine leiomyoma mimicking a primary malignant ovarian tumor on sonography and CT. A 39 year old infertile nulliparous woman presented with a history of lump in abdomen since 2 years and 6 months of amenorrhea. Sonography and CT examination showed a large mass that filled the abdomen. A preoperative diagnosis of a primary malignant ovarian tumor was made. The patient underwent laparotomy with total abdominal hysterectomy preserving tubes and ovaries. The histology revealed a leiomyoma with extensive hyaline degeneration. The current established management of uterine fibroids may include expectant, surgical, or medical management or uterine artery embolization or a combination of these treatments. A surgical approach is preferred for management of giant leiomyomas. Leiomyomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a multilocular and predominantly cystic adnexal mass.

Objectives: Surgical wound metastases in stage 1 endometrial cancer are possible, with a variety of different pathophysiological possibilities. Comprehensive management is needed to keep the patient on the possibility of a good prognosis.Cases Report: During January 2015 – January 2018 at dr. Soetomo Hospital, there were 2 cases of metastatic endometrial cancer in the laparotomy wounds by which the condition is very rare. Case 1, The patient was diagnosed with endometrial carcinoma following the results of curettage. Anatomical pathology examination was done and obtained grade 2 endometrioid adenocarcinoma. In Case 2, the patient underwent Total Abdominal Hysterectomy and Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy in 2013 at Mojokerto General Hospital, indicating Uterine Fibroids and Ovarian Cysts. The results of anatomical pathology examination were unknown. On April 2017, the patient complained abdominal swelling since 3 months ago.Conclusion: In January 2015 - January 2018, 2 cases of metastatic endometrial cancer was found in a former laparotomy operation where this condition is very rare in endometrial cancer cases with low grade ,so that follow-up, monitoring and more vigilance are required in patients with low-grade endometrial Ca who have finished undergoing a surgery and chemotherapy. Rapture or mass resection, followed by external radiation, may be performed in patients with recurrence in the laparotomy wound area or in patients with high risk factors for endometrial cancer such as a history of estrogen use, tamoxifen, nullipara, obesity, diabetes mellitus, and family history of endometrial cancer. Currently, there is no fixed procedure (guideline) in RS. Dr. Soetomo to overcome recurrences especially in the scars of cancer surgery.

Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding

Background. First described in 1945 by Morehead and Bowman, uterine tumors resembling ovarian sex-cord tumors (UTROSCT) are rare tumors of the uterine body that tend to occur in menopausal women presenting with abnormal vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, and increased uterine volume. UTROSCT are usually diagnosed from incidental histological findings following hysterectomy performed due to a suspected endometrial polyp or uterine fibroids. Objective. To report on a 46-year-old patient with abnormal vaginal bleeding. At physical examination, a pediculated nodular lesion was found protruding from the external cervical os. Histopathology of the resected lesion led to a diagnosis of UTROSCT. Total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy was then performed. The patient is currently undergoing regular outpatient follow-up, with no evidence of disease after one year. Methods. Data were retrieved from the patient’s records, and macroscopic and microscopic images of the tumor were obtained. Discussion. Reports of metastasis or recurrence are rare. UTROSCT are considered of uncertain malignant potential and no particular form of treatment is formally recommended, with hysterectomy currently being the treatment of choice. This patient will be followed up for five years during which clinical examination and tomography of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis will be performed annually.

Uterine fibroids represent the most common large solid benign tumor of the female genital tract. This 35 years old lady, mother of one child represented to our clinic with a history of progressive abdominal swelling that had rapidly increased in the last two years. There were associated abdominal pain, easy fatigability, heavy menstrual loss and prolong secondary subfertility of about ten years. On examination abdomen was enlarged and the mass measuring about 25cm from xiphisternum, firm, irregular and fairly mobile. Pelvic ultrasound scan revealed features of huge multiple uterine fibroids and the size of the largest one was about 20x25cm,moderate bilateral hydro-nephrosis. Intraoperative findings were moderate pelvic adhesions, huge multiple fibroids and the largest measuring about 18x20cm. Total abdominal hysterectomy with preservation of both ovaries were done. Histopathological report confirmed benign leiomyoma with no evidence of malignancy.Medicine Today 2015 Vol.27(2): 49-50
