Introduction: the lacrimal gland size is affected by a variety of pathologic conditions like inflammatory, infections, neoplastic, autoimmune and granulomatous disorders. Earlier, the dimensions of the gland were estimated by extracting lacrimal glands from cadavers, later ultrasonography and computed tomography studies were used, but had limited soft tissue differentiation. The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data from normal orbits and determine lacrimal gland dimensions.

Introduction Adnexal masses present a special diagnostic challenge because it is difficult to differentiate between benign and malignant lesions clinically. The diagnosis of malignancy is vital, and imaging is the most important part of the evaluation of adnexal masses. This study was conducted with the goal of comparing the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing female adnexal masses in comparison with histopathology examination (HPE).

Amelia is a sporadic anomaly that is defined by the complete absence of a limb's skeletal elements, whereas hypomelia is defined by the incomplete development of a limb's skeletal elements.

Congenital uterine anomalies are a rare type of malformation involving female genitalia caused by abnormal development of the Mullerian duct system. Patients having an obstructive type of uterine anomalies are very much likely to develop obstetric and gynecological complications usually at the age of menarche or later in the course of life. In this case report, we present a case of a young female patient having severe dysmenorrhea which is caused by obstructive hematometra in the rudimentary horn which is not communicating with the uterine cavity.
