Leiomyomas of an extrauterine nature are rare and often present a more challenging diagnosis process for the clinician. Our patient presented with lower abdominal pain associated with menorrhagia over a period of 6 months. Laparoscopic surgery revealed a right-sided broad ligament myoma consisting

Pregnancy in the broad ligament is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy, and one type of abdominal pregnancy. The diagnosis is seldom established before surgery. A 38-year-old, 11-week pregnant woman, gravida 3, para 2, presented with vaginal bleeding. She had undergone two cesarean sections 10 and 6

The Ebola and Marburg viruses (from the filovirus family) induce deadly hemorrhagic fevers for which there is currently no licensed vaccine or treatment. Frequent outbreaks have occurred in sub-Saharan Africa, in humans and nonhuman primates over the last 15 years or so and constitute a major public

One hundred fifty-six hospitalized adult patients treated with ticarcillin, piperacillin, mezlocillin, or cefotaxime (control) were prospectively observed for determination of frequencies of platelet dysfunction and bleeding. Increases in bleeding times (greater than or equal to 5 min above

BACKGROUND A primary broad ligament leiomyoma weighing greater than 50 kg presented unique perioperative complications. METHODS A postmenopausal nulligravida presented to the emergency department for a fractured patella with an incidental finding of a massive abdomen. The patient underwent

Two cases of true broad ligament fibroids and thirty cases of false broad ligament fibroids were operated. All were removed through the laparoscopic route, with very minimal blood loss and without a need for blood transfusion. We traced the course of the ureters in all cases. No complications were

Extraspinal ependymoma is a rare tumor, occurring most commonly in the sacrococcygeal region, and only a small number of cases have been reported to arise in the uterine ligament.
