Vaginal myomas are rare benign, mesenchyme, monoclonal tumors. They originate from smooth muscle cells and have a diverse and non-specific clinical feature. They are normally presented as single solid nodules localized in anterior vaginal wall in women between the ages of 35-50 years. Often times they are secondary originating from a cervical or vaginal lesion in woman who had undergone a hysterectomy on account of a myoma. We present a rare case of vaginal myoma localized in the posterior vaginal wall in a patient, who had undergone a total hysterectomy 19 years ago on account of a myoma.

Vaginal reconstruction is necessary for various congenital and acquired conditions, including vaginal aplasia, trauma, tumors, and gender incongruency. Current surgical and non-surgical treatments often result in significant complications. Decellularized vaginal matrices (DVMs) from human tissue offer a promising alternative, but require effective sterilization to ensure safety and functionality.

Urethrovaginal fistulas are rare complications often arising from urethrovaginal injuries commonly due to obstetrical trauma, urethral surgeries, pelvic fractures, or neoplastic treatments. Here, we present a unique case involving a 23-year-old female patient with a large urethrovaginal fistula and complete anterior vaginal wall sloughing following prolonged obstructed labor. Nine months post-cesarean, she reported urine leakage via the vagina upon catheter removal, which intensified in an erect posture.

Background: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is prevalent among women, often occurring alongside anterior vaginal wall prolapse. This study compares the efficacy and safety of an improved vaginal wall repair technique with pubocervical fascia fixation versus standard anterior colporrhaphy for treating SUI in women with anterior vaginal wall prolapse.

Methods: A single-centre, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial was conducted between September 2021 and June 2024.

Article Synopsis
  • Uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS) is a rare cancer combining both carcinoma and sarcoma features, often resembling endometrial carcinoma, with a potential link to nulliparity (never having given birth) as a risk factor.
  • A 55-year-old woman presented with postmenopausal vaginal bleeding and was diagnosed after surgery, revealing well-differentiated adenocarcinoma and osteosarcoma components, along with multiple positive immunohistochemical markers.
  • Following a series of surgical interventions and treatments, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the patient demonstrated no signs of tumor recurrence and had a disease-free survival of seven months as of July 2024.
