Journals are replete with variations on the theme of ovarian teratomas. In this context, the senior author had written on this topic as far back as 1976, and as recently as 2015. Therefore, in this paper, attention is drawn to a curious case written up with another author. It concerned an ovarian teratoma containing different compartments exhibiting albino and black hairs respectively. Sadly, lack of follow-up prevented further advance such as considering familial albinism.

Background: This study aims at determining the prevalence of the condemned practice of female genital mutilation (FGM) among the Igbo Ethnic Group in Nigeria. Materials and Methods:The answer was based on the study of cases of the epidermoid cysts which resulted from such mutilations, the sources being the histopathology data pool maintained at a Regional Pathology Laboratory servicing this Group.Results: The analysis of 55 positive cases revealed that, concerning the years of birth, from 1949 to 1998, none occurred in the last decade.Conclusion: This histopathology study characterized epidermoid cysts according to the years of birth of the patients. As none of the cohort was born during the last decade, a positive impact has been demonstrated in this hitherto thorny field in this particular community.
