Placental polyp is one of the rare diseases that can affect women after delivery or abortion for indenite period which forms a polypoidal mass in the uterus.1 The incidence of placental polyp is less than 0.25% of all pregnancies.2 The case report is of a 41 year old woman, G8 P6L6 A1 who presented on postpartum day 19 and 30 with secondary postpartum haemorrhage. She underwent check curettage on postpartum day 19 and was discharged. And had to undergo emergency hysterectomy on postpartum day 32 as she presented in shock due to secondary postpartum haemorrhage and the histopathologic ndings were compatible with a placental polyp. Placental polyp can be missed on ultrasound and blind procedure like curettage and histopathology gives a conrmatory diagnosis. In our study, the diagnosis was conrmed by histopathology.

Engelmann Disease

Mesenteric fibromatosis is a rare type of desmoid tumor characterized by local aggressiveness and a tendency to relapse. In view of these characteristics it may be considered a low-grade fibrosarcoma. Camurati-Engelmann disease is a very rare form of bone dysplasia characterized by osteosclerosis of the diaphyses of the long bones. Here we describe the case of a male patient affected by these two rare diseases in association with chronic inflammatory intestinal disease.

Carcinosarcoma (CS) of uterus is a relatively rare tumour and accounts for less than 1 percent of malignant growth of the female genital tract. This tumour contains both malignant epithelial component and malignant stromal component. So, it is also known as malignant mixed mullerian tumours (MMMTS). Carcinosarcoma usually arise from endometrium and myometrium and rarely from cervix, ovary. The clinical presentation is mostly postmenopausal bleeding but enlarging pelvic mass, pelvic pain, vaginal discharge or polypoidal mass protruding through the cervical os are also frequently present. The risk factors include obesity, exogenous estrogen, nulliparity, exposure to radiation & temoxifen. Histological evaluation by endometrial biopsy will establish the diagnosis in most cases. Carcinosarcoma is aggressive type of tumour; extra-uterine spread is very common and generally carries a poor prognosis. The prognosis depends on the extent of the tumour at the time of primary surgery. This case report describes a rare type of presentation of the tumour which arose from the body & cervix of uterus and presented with a polypoidal mass prolapsed into the vagina. The case was properly diagnosed & managed by surgery and postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjog.v25i1.13730 Bangladesh J Obstet Gynaecol, 2010; Vol. 25(1) : 33-36
