Fibroepithelial polyps are benign lesions that may appear in the vulvovaginal region. They usually occur in women of reproductive age and tend to grow up to 5 cm, but there are some rare cases in which they grow up to 20 cm. We report a case of a 22-year-old woman in the third trimester of her first pregnancy with spontaneous bleeding from a pedunculated mass measuring 15 cm in the widest diameter on the right side of the vulva. Features of this case are discussed as well as its implications, especially regarding the decision of labour. Due to the big size of the mass and its propensity to bleed, we decided to perform an elective caesarean section as well as its excision.

Haemoperitoneum in women of reproductive age usually suggests either ruptured ectopic pregnancy or ruptured ovarian cysts. Metastatic choriocarcinoma is considered the least common cause of haemoperitoneum in women of childbearing age. We report a rare case of pancreatic and hepatic metastasis of choriocarcinoma in a young, 30-year-old female who had delivered 10 months prior at term gestation with no previous history of gestational trophoblastic disease or molar pregnancy. She had a short history of fever and pain in the right hypochondrium, with findings of hypovolaemic shock due to intraperitoneal haemorrhage. Unfortunately, the patient expired with massive uncontrolled bleeding from liver metastasis despite 2 emergency laparotomies within 12 h. This case report is an apt reminder to clinicians to include metastatic choriocarcinoma on the list of differential diagnoses for haemoperitoneum with a positive pregnancy test in women of reproductive age to diagnose early and to avoid life-threatening consequences.

Aggressive Angiomyxoma is a very rare, distinctive, locally invasive soft tissue tumour, that occurs most commonly in the perineum, pelvis, vulva and vagina. It is seen mostly in women of reproductive age group. It has a tendency for recurrence locally, treatment being surgical excision. We hereby describe a case of 38-year-old patient with a pedunculated growth on the right labium majora.

Abstract Background Endometriosis is a benign disorder defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside of the uterine cavity. It has been estimated that approximately 10% of the women of reproductive age and 30–50% of the women with infertility are affected. Case presentation We report two nulliparous patients with recurrent pleural effusion and pain in the right shoulder highly suspicious for thoracic endometriosis syndrome (TES). Conclusion The objective of this study was to present patients with unusual symptoms related to gynecological disease. The second aim was to show our single institution experience as a second level hospital in terms of treatment and diagnosis of TES and diaphragmatic endometriosis.

Fallopian tube torsion is a rare cause of acute abdomen, occurring commonly in females of reproductive age. It lacks pathognomonic symptoms, signs, or imaging features, thus causing delay in surgical intervention. Current study report one case of isolated fallopian tube torsion in adolescent girl. In this case a 13 year old patient presented with acute pain in the right iliac region associated with 3 episodes of vomiting for one day and severe tenderness on examination. Laparoscopy revealed right sided twisted fallopian tube associated with gangrenous fimbrial end. The tube was untwisted and salpingectomy done. Salpingectomy was done as the tube was gangrenous. Fallopian tube torsion, though rare, should be considered in women of reproductive age with unilateral pelvic pain. Early diagnostic laparoscopy is important for an accurate diagnosis and could prevent the rupture of the gangrenous tube.

Introduction. Dysgerminomas are germ cell ovarian tumors. They affect young females, prevalently during childhood. The problem arises when dysgerminoma is diagnosed in women of reproductive age who have never given birth and require a surgical procedure. Case outline. A 28-year-old patient was admitted to hospital in week 26 of her first pregnancy. The reason for patient hospitalization was the growth of the isthmic myoma diagnosed by her obstetriciangynecologist in the primary care unit. By examining the medical history of the patient, the following was revealed: A year and a half before pregnancy she was diagnosed with left ovary dysgerminoma. The patient?s medical history led us to conclude that uterine myoma was a misdiagnosis and that the actual diagnosis was dysgerminoma of the right ovary. The surgery was performed after the fetal viability had been achieved. Conclusion. Malignant ovarian tumours may occur in young women during pregnancy and increase in size significantly in a short period of time, although their recurrence is not expected in such a short period of time after surgical treatment. This poses a great challenge for obstetricians.

AA is a rare locally invasive mesenchymal tumor predominantly presenting in women of reproductive age group, having a moderate to high risk for local relapse. Hence, it needs to be differentiated from another mesenchymal tumor occuring in this region. We present a case of a 50 year old female with a large, polypoidal, spongy mass on the right labia majora.

Aim: To study the characteristics and surgical treatment of inguinal endometriosis (IEM), which can occur in women of reproductive age. Methods: Patients who underwent groin surgery at the Hiroshima City Funairi Citizens Hospital between 2004 and 2017 were retrospectively examined. Patients with IEM were divided into 3 groups based on the site of occurrence as follows: at a hernia sac or hydrocele of Nuck’s canal (type I), round ligament (type II), or subcutaneous area (type III). Clinical characteristics were compared among groups. Results: Of 2,798 patients investigated, 28 were pathologically diagnosed as having IEM with 15, 10, and 3 classified as type I, II, and III respectively. All patients presented with a mass (median 20 mm) and/or bulge that mainly occurred at the right inguinal region. Sixteen patients presented with inguinal pain associated with menstruation. While the groups did not differ in terms of most clinical characteristics, the lack of a preoperative diagnosis of IEM occurred more frequently for type I than for types II and III. Conclusions: Because IEM-type I might be underdiagnosed preoperatively, complete resection of a hernia sac or hydrocele of Nuck’s canal with subsequent pathological examination is required for women of reproductive age with an inguinal disease.
