Article Synopsis
- Uterine leiomyomas, although rare in adolescents, can present with symptoms like abnormal bleeding and pelvic pain, with smooth muscle tumors of unknown malignant potential (STUMP) being even rarer.
- In a hospital case study, three 19-year-old patients presented with significant symptoms, leading to the identification of varying sizes of uterine myomas; one was diagnosed as a STUMP tumor while the others were benign fibroids.
- Despite their rarity, it is important for healthcare providers to consider uterine myomas and STUMP tumors as potential diagnoses in young patients experiencing pelvic symptoms.

Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a type of DNA that circulates freely in the blood once released from nucleated cells. The aim of this study was to determine if the level of cfDNA, which is an indicator of ischemia at the cellular level, was increased in CSFP.
