Introduction. The association of gonadal dysgenesis and Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome is very rare and appears to be coincidental, independent of chromosomal anomalies. Case Report. We report the case of a 19-year-old woman who presented primary amenorrhea and impuberism. The endocrine study revealed hypergonadotrophic hypogonadism. The karyotype was normal, 46XX. No chromosome Y was detected at the FISH analysis. Internal genitalia could not be identified on the pelvic ultrasound and pelvic MRI. Laparoscopy was undertaken and revealed concomitant ovarian dysgenesis and Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser syndrome. There were no other morphological malformations. Conclusion. The pathogenesis of the association of gonadal dysgenesis and Mayer Rokitansky kuster hauser syndrome is still mysterious. The treatment is based essentially on hormone substitution therapy. The fertility prognosis is unfortunately compromised.
We report the case of a menopausal 74-year-old patient who presents pyorrhoea for 6months. We suspect initially a carcinoma process, but the anatomopathological examination takings obtained by biopsy curettage of the endometrial under hysteroscopy is in favor of an inflammatory infiltrate with epithelioid and giant cells of type Langhans and type Muller without caseous necrosis. The bacteriological direct examination after coloring of Gram, Ziehl-Neelsen and Sabouraud was negative. The bacteriological culture in the Löewenstein and Coletsos environment identified Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The searches for another source of the infection was negative both at the pulmonary and urinary levels. An antituberculous quadritherapy allows the fast clinical improvement. The tuberculosis remains frequent but rarely genital. It is especially the case of young women, from non industrialized countries, consulting for infertility. It is necessary to know how to evoke it front in pelvic symptoms, whatever the age is and to realize easily mycobacteriological examinations.
Mammary sarcomas are uncommon tumors. When tumors like malignant cystosarcomaphyllodes and metaplastic carcinoma, where malignant cartilaginous areas may be present, are excluded, only nine cases have been reported to date.We report another case of primary chondrosarcoma of the breast here. A 24-year-old Mediterranean woman presented with a painful mass in the right breast and a physical examination revealed a palpable mass. An incisional biopsy was performed and primary chondrosarcoma was diagnosed based on histological examination. Our patient underwent a mastectomy. A preoperative clinical and cytological diagnosis of chondrosarcoma, even though possible in a few cases, is usually not attained due to its similarclinical behavior with other breast tumors.
Gestational trophoblastic diseases present a risk of malignant, invasive and metastatic progression, hence the advantage of rigorous biological monitoring after any molar evacuation, with the aim of detecting any malignancy early, and consequently reducing the mortality of these diseases. The therapeutic approach y is based on chemotherapy, but embolization and hysterectomy must be taken on consideration especially in the haemorrhagic forms of the disease.
La grossesse hétérotopique est définie par la coexistence d'une grossesse intrautérine (GIU) et d'une grossesse extra-utérine (GEU), quelle que soit sa localisation. C'est une forme de la grossesse gémellaire dizygote bi-ovulaire, sa survenue sur un cycle spontané est rare. C'est une pathologie rare et grave qui peut parfois mettre en jeu le pronostic vital maternel. Nous rapportons deux observations de patientes qui ont bénéficié d'une prise en charge pour une grossesse hétérotopique au Service de Gynécologie-obstétrique I, CHU Hassan II de Fès, sur une période d'une année. Nous avons rapporté les données cliniques, échographiques ainsi que la prise en charge thérapeutique de cette pathologie. La douleur pelvienne était le motif de consultation principal. Le diagnostic de grossesse hétérotopique a été suspecté à l'échographie pour les deux cas. Le traitement réalisé était un traitement conservateur par voie coelioscopique pour le premier et une salpingectomie par mini-laparotomie transverse pour le deuxième. L'évolution de la GIU était favorable dans les deux cas.
