Pregnancy in the broad ligament is a rare form of ectopic abdominal pregnancy with a high risk of maternal mortality. Ultrasound examination may help in the early diagnosis but mostly the diagnosis is established during surgery. We are reporting two cases of broad ligament pregnancy one diagnosed on ultrasound and the other was diagnosed intraoperatively. Both these patients had uneventful postoperative recovery.

Leiomyomas are the commonest uterine and pelvic tumours. The usual anatomical location is the body of the uterus. Cervical leiomyomas are uncommon and presentation as a huge abdominal mass is rare. We report a case of a 45-year old female who presented with abdominal distension and weight loss for one year. Abdominal examination revealed a huge mass of 40 week size pregnant uterus filling the whole abdomen with restricted mobility, non tender and solid consistency mimicking an ovarian tumour. On ultrasound this was a solid mass with a cystic component. There was a large cervical fibroid visualized on laparotomy which was successfully removed. Histopathological examination showed a cervical fibroid with hyaline and cystic degeneration. The patient had an uneventful postoperative recovery.
