Background: Subtle uterine lesions are abnormal intracavitary conditions that, while not causing significant anatomical changes, can adversely impact fertility. Identifying these "subtle" lesions is challenging due to arbitrary interpretation, varied management strategies, unclear clinical significance, and insufficient clinician training in recognizing them. Hysteroscopy offers direct visualization and the capacity to obtain targeted biopsies, making it an invaluable tool for the diagnosis and treatment of these often overlooked conditions.

  • Hysterectomy can lead to complications like vaginal nodules, which may signal issues such as cancer or endometriosis, and in rare cases, abdominal organ prolapse.
  • This report details a rare case of a 55-year-old woman's prolapsed epiploica of the colon at the vaginal cuff, discovered after she had a robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy for cancer.
  • Histological analysis indicated fat necrosis and calcification in the vaginal polyp, underscoring the need for comprehensive examination of such nodules to rule out serious conditions.

  • Ultrasound and MRI revealed a multilocular cystic lesion near her bladder, and a further CT scan suggested the lesion originated from her left ovary.
  • This case is notable because it represents one of the youngest instances of an OE being identified in a patient who has not yet started menstruating, highlighting the rarity of such occurrences in pediatric populations.
