BACKGROUND: Ovarian fibrothecoma is a rare, benign, sex cord-stromal neoplasm, with a typically unilateral location in the ovary, characterized by mixed features of both fibroma and thecoma. Ovarian fibrothecoma is uncommon tumor of gonadal stromal cell origin accounting for 3-4% of all ovarian tumours. CASE PRESENTATION: We presented a rare case of a 46-year-old patient with recurrent menorrhagia in the past two years with no previous medical, surgical or gynecological history. She underwent two times curettage procedures. At the admission to hospital ultrasonography showed a homogenous solid right ovarian mass of size 2.5 cm x 3.5 cm. Endometrial curettage revealed simple hyperplasia of the endometrium. Diagnostic evaluation and surgical management are discussed along with a brief review of the literature. Total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was carried out. Histopathology confirmed fibrothecoma of the ovary, proliferative endometrium with hyperplasia without atypia and multiple uterine fibroids. CONCLUSION: In all patients presenting with recurrent menorrhagia and adnexal tumor the possibility of a granulosa cell tumor must be kept in mind during evaluation.

Abstract Background Hilus cell tumours is considered an uncommon branch of androgen producing neoplasms that accounts for < 5% of all ovarian tumours. They are mostly benign and have characteristic gross and microscopic features. Here we present the first case of a hilus cell tumour in association with bilateral serous cystadenomas. Case presentation A 65-year-old lady with no symptoms of virilization, presented with postmenopausal dysfunctional uterine bleeding and radiological investigations revealing bilateral ovarian cysts that required a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Gross and microscopic evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of hilus cell tumour associated with bilateral serous cystadenomas. Conclusions This was the first case of hilus cell tumour in association with bilateral serous cystadenomas of the ovaries. Although, majority of hilus cell tumours that have been reported in the literature were benign, further studies are required to determine the behavior of the disease.

CT scan also confirmed same findings. Staging Laparotomy was performed which confirmed the findingsof ultrasound and CT scan. Total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was done along with peritoneal washings forcytology.

Although leiomyomas are the most common pelvic tumors presenting in the reproductive age group, cervical fibroids are rare accounting for 2% of all uterine fibroids. We report a case of 40 year old lady presenting with a firm, non-tender mass of 22-24 weeks size pregnant uterus with restricted mobility. Laparotomy showed a large mass arising from the anterior lip of cervix, with a small uterus pushed posteriorly. Enucleation followed by total abdominal hysterectomy was done. Large cervical fibroids are rare, presenting with surgical difficulties. Careful dissection by expert hands is needed in the management of such cases.

History Of

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.

Giant uterine fibroids (leiomyoma or myomas) which are fibroid masses greater than 11.4 kg are very rare. Although benign in nature, it may present with symptoms that impact negatively on the quality of life and health of the patient and impose greater management challenges. We present two cases of giant uterine fibroids that were successfully managed in a private specialist hospital without complications. Case 1 was a 38-year-old nulliparous Nigerian woman who presented with giant uterine fibroids (11.6 kg) who initially had delay of surgery due to fear that after surgery she may lose her “womb” or not be able to conceive after the operation. Later, she had successful open abdominal myomectomy, with the use of Foley catheters as improvise equipment for tourniquet and abdominal drain. Anti-adhesion agent was not used. Case 2 was a 47-year-old nulliparous Nigerian teacher with giant fibroids (13.2 kg) who also initially had delayed surgery due to fear that fibroid surgery is a major operation that it may get complicated and she may die. Also, she was afraid that she may not have her womb in her next world if she gets reincarnated. She had total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy without complications. For both cases, pre-surgery leiomyosarcoma assessment with computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging and anti-adhesion agent were not used due to very unaffordable high costs. These reports of giant uterine fibroids (leiomyoma or myomas) are very rare gynecological entity, and management can be successful despite overwhelming challenges in low-income countries. Cheaper, affordable and available alternatives (improvises) can be resorted to for tackling its challenges in low-income settings.

Uterine leiomyosarcoma is a rare and aggressive malignancy with poor overall prognosis. There have been few reports of metastatic leiomyosarcoma in the gallbladder. We report a case of a 41-year-old female who underwent total abdominal hysterectomy due to presumed uterine fibroids. The postoperative pathology revealed high-grade pleomorphic leiomyosarcoma, with involvement of the uterine serosal surface. She subsequently underwent exploratory laparotomy, followed by pelvic radiation and chemotherapy. Since initial management she has developed metastatic disease and has been under treatment and surveillance for 11 years. She has undergone multiple surgical procedures and numerous lines of systemic therapy for metastatic leiomyosarcoma, including cholecystectomy for a metastatic lesion in the gallbladder. There have been no previous reports of metastatic leiomyosarcoma in the gallbladder. Despite extensive metastatic disease this patient has had prolonged survival with multi-modality management.

Total abdominal hysterectomy is a quite common open surgical operation accounting for 54% of all benign diseases. Indications are uterine fibroids, adenomyosis/endometriosis, AUB, chronic pelvic pain, cancer of ovaries, uterus or cervix or cancer phobia. It is relatively an uncomplicated operation and easiest when least required.
