Introduction And Importance: Placenta increta (PI) can mimic a rare malignant tumor called Placental-site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT) with similar laboratory and clinical findings. Histological findings can help correctly diagnose PI from rare malignant tumors of PSTT.
Case Presentation: According to our knowledge, only one case of PI has been reported in the literature, each of which had different characteristics, and various aspects of this lesion still need to be clarified.
Myoepithelioma-like tumors of the vulvar region (MELTVR) are rare. Only a limited number of MELTVRs are reported in the literature, and various aspects of this lesion still need to be clarified. In this study, we reported a case of MELTVR in a 46-year-old female.

Immature teratoma in the context of ovarian endometrioma has not been reported yet.
Case Presentation: A 34-year-old woman with primary infertility is reported in this study who suffered from immature teratoma associated with ovarian endometrioma.
Background: The relationship between uterine peristalsis before embryo transfer and the success of assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs) has not been properly investigated. In this study, the effect of uterine contractions on embryo implantation in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles was investigated to determine whether the frequency of uterine contractions can be used as a quantitative marker to assess endometrial receptivity.
Methods: In this cohort study of 68 eligible FET candidates, one hour before embryo transfer (ET), frequency of uterine contractions was assessed with transvaginal ultrasonography.
