Uterineadenosarcomawith an adult granulosa tumourisrarelydescribed in the literature. The paucity of studies concerning this association makesitdifficultbothdiagnostically and therapeutically. We report a rare case of this association in a menopausal patient admitted to our training course for post-menopausalmetrorrhagia. The evolutionwas favorable in this patient after radical treatment, whichwasbased on atotal hysterectomywithbilateraladnexectomywithout adjuvant treatment.
Metastasis of renal clear cell carcinoma (RCC) to the breast is exceptional. Breast metastases of extra-mammary tumors are rare and usually involve melanoma, lymphoma or leukemia. We report the case of a patient with breast metastasis of renal clear cell carcinoma occurring 18 years after nephrectomy. A history of RCC should always raise suspicion about breast metastasis, a situation that remains exceptional and whose diagnosis relies on anatomopathology.
The ileo-sigmoid knot is a rare surgical entity, corresponding to the wrapping of the ileum around the base of the sigmoid colon forming a knot.An associated condition with a rapid progression to intestinal gangrene and high mortality. It is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction and especially during pregnancy. We report here the case of a patient at 13 weeks of amenorrhea with an ileo-sigmoid knot diagnosed at a late stage with fetal loss.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
