Krukenberg Tumour in Adolescents: Rare but Possible.

Krukenberg tumour is a rare ovarian metastatic carcinoma arising from a primary malignancy elsewhere, classically the gastrointestinal tract and breast. They are bilateral solid ovarian tumour which most commonly occurs between 40-60 years, and its occurrence in the second decade of life is extremely rare. In this short commentary, we present an unusual case of Krukenberg tumour in a 16-year old in which diagnosis was made intraoperatively and managed systematically, thus emphasising the need to suspect Krukenberg in all age groups.

A Challenging Case of Fertility Preservation in Metastatic Struma Ovarii in a 29-Year Old With Successful Delivery.

We report such a case of malignant struma ovarii in a 29-year-old nulliparous woman who was managed systematically with fertility preservation and followed up to have a successful delivery.

Genital tuberculosis in postmenopausal women with variable clinical presentations: A report of 3 cases.

Genital tuberculosis is usually diagnosed in young women being assessed for infertility. After menopause it usually presents with symptoms resembling endometrial malignancy, such as postmenopausal bleeding, persistent vaginal discharge and pyometra. The diagnosis is made by detection of acid-fast bacilli on microscopy or bacteriological culture and/or presence of epithelioid granuloma on biopsy.
