Primary borderline serous peritoneal tumour is a rare lesion found in the absence of ovarian pathology, in the presence of minimal ovarian involvement or in association with benign ovarian tumour. It is thought to arise from the mullerian system, which is embryologically derived from the coelomic and sub-coelomic mesenchyme, and therefore shares histologic similarities with ovarian serous tumours. Such tumours are mostly found in women of reproductive age group although cases have been reported for post-menopausal women. We report a case of a primary peritoneal borderline tumour diagnosed in a middle aged patient with lump and pain the upper abdomen in Shaheed Suhrawardy Medical College & Hospital.J Shaheed Suhrawardy Med Coll, December 2016, Vol.8(2); 69-72

Benign gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) generally occurs in reproductive age group women; but is extremely rare in peri and post-menopausal women. We report a case of molar pregnancy in a 48-year-old lady with complaints of bleeding per vaginum with severe pain abdomen. The intention was to highlight the need to include GTD as a possible cause of abnormal bleeding per vaginum in peri and post-menopausal women. So early diagnosis and management with proper follow up is possible. It stresses the need for early recognition to avoid high malignant sequelae.

Introduction: Choriocarcinoma is a highly malignant epithelial tumour arising from the trophoblastic tissue. It commonly occurs in women of reproductive age, rarely in post-menopausal women and in women under 20 years of age. Methods: The case was initially diagnosed as an unusual presentation of choriocarcinoma with acute haemoperitoneum due to perforation of uterus with lung metastasis. The patient an 18 yr old woman came with acute abdominal pain and signs of haemoperitoneum. Emergency laparotomy followed by hysterectomy was done. Subsequently patient took chemotherapy and improved. Conclusion: Acute haemoperitoneum is a medical emergency. So this case report emphasizes the need of sophisticated diagnostic technology for early diagnosis and successful management of the patient. Clinician should give more attention to unusal presentation of choriocarcinoma. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jafmc.v9i2.21850 Journal of Armed Forces Medical College Bangladesh Vol.9(2) 2013

To report the occurrence of a rare case of a huge benign ovarian tumour (mucinous cystadenoma) in in a tertiary care rural teaching hospital in Konkan, Maharashtra, India. Our reported case was a young woman of reproductive age group which was very rare who presented with marked abdominal distension and discomfort at the obstetrics-gynaecology OPD of BKL Walavalkar rural medical college. The data were collected by history-taking, clinical examination, laboratory investigations, transabdominal ultrasonographic examination and by histopathological study of the excised surgical specimen. The case was reported as a rare massive ovarian mucinous cystadenoma in a woman of reproductive age group. This case report emphasized the significance of thorough evaluation of all women presented with vague abdominal pain and gradual abdominal distension in reproductive age group. Although the condition is extremely rare, women from rural area neglect such conditions and present late which may pose challenges in the management.

Background: Lack of awareness, knowledge and education, religious beliefs and fear of side effects are the main causes why women do not use family planning methods. To study the knowledge, attitude and practice of contraception among clients undergoing to Medical termination of pregnancy (MTP) and sterilization.Methods: This prospective study was done among 400 indoor cases at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in B.J. Medical college, Ahmedabad during July 2002 to October 2003. All the clients undergoing MTP and sterilization were explained and counseled about contraception with GATHER approach of family planning. After taking detail history, a thorough clinical examination of the clients was carried out with preliminary investigations.Results: Almost 58% clients were willing to accept TL method as contraceptive option, 39.5% IUCD, 1.75% OC pill method of contraception. Regarding history of side effect of contraceptive use, 17.3% condom users, 68.5% OC pill users, 63% CuT users have felt side effect. Almost 42.5% clients were operated by MTP + Lap TL, 39.5% by MTP + CuT and 14.5% by plain Lap TL.Conclusions: Efforts should be made to promote information, education and communication regarding emergency contraception targeted to all women of reproductive age group. It is important that unwanted pregnancy be prevented through effective contraceptive practice rather than abortion.

BACKGROUND: Leiomyoma is one of the most common causes of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding. It occurs chiey in women during active reproductive years. It has a lot of morphological variants and secondary changes which may mimic malignancy clinically, radiologically and histologically. A few degenerative changes and variants like Atypical and Mitotically active Leiomyoma may be misdiagnosed as malignancy. It is imperative to have a good knowledge of Leiomyosarcoma as the treatment protocol varies. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To analyse the morphological variants and secondary changes in Leiomyoma and to study the associated changes in the endometrium. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 420 Hysterectomy specimens with Fibroid received at Govt. Kilpauk medical College, Chennai were studied from January 2018 to January 2020. RESULTS: Leiomyoma was seen in the reproductive age group and menorrhagia was the most common clinical presentation. Hyalinisation was the most common secondary change seen in Leiomyoma and cellular leiomyoma was the most common morphological variant. CONCLUSION:A good comprehensive and accurate knowledge of the morphological variants and secondary changes in Leiomyoma mandatory to avoid misdiagnosis and ensuring optimal patient management.

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is an ecological imbalance of the vaginal microbiota affecting mostly women of reproductive age group. This study was carried out among 160 nonpregnant women registered at the Outpatient Department of Gynaecology/Obstetrics of KIST Medical College Teaching Hospital, Imadol, Lalitpur, Nepal, from November 2014 to May 2015. The aim of the study was to assess the association of the risk factors with BV and analyze the type of bacteria associated with BV. Nugent’s scoring method was used for diagnosis of BV in this study. The overall prevalence of BV was 24.4% among symptomatic patients. Douching was statistically related to BV(P=0.015). Also, BV was significantly associated with consistency(P=0.0001), odor(P=0.02), and amount of abnormal vaginal discharge(P=0.09). Contraceptives users on anatomical sites were found more prone to BV than those who did not use contraceptives on anatomical sites.Pseudomonasspp.,Escherichia coli, Acinetobacterspp., Proteusspp., Klebsiellaspp., Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Enterobacterspp., Citrobacterspp., Staphylococcus aureus,Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci (CoNS),andStreptococcus agalactiaewere associated with BV and out of thoseLactobacillusspp. was the predominant organism. The higher prevalence of BV among symptomatic patients indicates interventions should be applied to reduce the incidence of stillbirth, abortion, and sterility.

Background: Chronic pelvic pain is a common problem in reproductive age group women. Diagnosis of chronic pelvic pain needs multidisciplinary approach. Diagnostic laparoscopy is one of the investigations which can help in reaching the diagnosis. Objective: To know the etiology in chronic pelvic pain. Methods: This was a descriptive study done in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Kathmandu medical college teaching hospital from January 2010 to June 2012 (30 months). All the cases of laparoscopic surgery done for chronic pelvic pain were noted and details of these cases were analyzed regarding age, parity and laparoscopic findings. Results: Total 48 cases of Chronic Pelvic Pain underwent diagnostic laparoscopy during the study period. Mean age of cases were 33 years, ranging from 20-46yrs. Almost half of the cases 43.75% were of parity two. Laparoscopic finding was negative in 29.17% and pelvic pathology was present in 70.83% of the cases. Out of the pelvic pathology endometriosis was present in 55.88% followed by pelvic adhesions, pelvic congestion and pelvic inflammatory disease, chronic ectopic in 20.58%, 14.70%, 5.88%, 2.94% respectively. Conclusion: Diagnostic laparoscopy is a useful modality in the diagnosis of etiology and management of Chronic pelvic pain. In our study, Pelvic endometriosis was the most common pelvic pathology in cases of Chronic pelvic pain.
