Primary melanoma of female urethra: A case diagnosed in Ouagadougou
We report a case of primary melanoma of a female urethra diagnosed at a non-metastatic stage in a 48-year-old patient with a history of breast carcinoma treated with radiotherapy and hormone therapy. The patient was consulting for dysuria, hematuria, and perineal pain. The clinical examination found a prolapsed and black mass, developed at the expense of the urethra and located at the anterosuperior part of the vulva. The mass biopsy revealed a proliferation of fusiform and globular cells loaded with black pigment expressing the anti-HMB 45 and PS 100 antibodies. The extension assessment showed an absence of secondary loca...

Enteritis cystica profunda
We reported the case of a 45-year-old female, suffering from a Crohn's disease, with a Koenig's syndrome, diarrhea, abdominal pain and weight loss. The colonoscopy and the abdominopelvic scan showed a terminal ileal stenosis, with parietal calcifications. A surgical ileocecal resection was decided. Gross examination of the ileocecal resection showed a thickening of the ileal wall, with many mucin-filled cysts measuring 1mm to 2cm, with some calcifications. The ileal mucosa was ulcerated, and showed a stenotic sector extending over 3cm. Histological examination showed acute ulcerated ileitis lesions, with chronic ileitis le...

Three cases of ovarian actinomycosis with literature review
CONCLUSIONS: Ovarian actinomycosis is closely related to long-term IUD implantation. The clinical manifestations and imaging features of this disease are not specific; therefore, preoperative diagnosis is difficult. The disease is easily misdiagnosed as ovarian cancer. Sulfur granules are signs of ovarian actinomycosis, and thus, those with this manifestation should be carefully screened by pathologic examination. Surgery combined with antibiotic treatment is effective for ovarian actinomycosis, resulting in a good prognosis.PMID:37559683 | PMC:PMC10408434
