Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Kawasaki Medical School, Okayama, Japan (Saito, Ota, Sugihara, Ota, and Shimoya).
Article Synopsis
- Acute Sheehan syndrome is a rare form of hypopituitarism that can develop after significant postpartum hemorrhage, as seen in a 37-year-old woman who lost 3,000 mL of blood following a vulvar hematoma.
- The patient presented with symptoms like anorexia and fatigue 28 days after giving birth, and MRI results confirmed swelling of the pituitary gland due to hemorrhage.
- This case is unique as it links acute Sheehan syndrome to vulvar hematoma, emphasizing the need to consider less common complications in severe postpartum bleeding cases.

Article Synopsis
- Acquired vulvar lymphangioma (AVL) is a rare condition resulting from damage to deep lymphatic vessels, causing swelling and discharge, often leading to misdiagnosis.
- A 53-year-old woman developed AVL seven years after cervical cancer surgery, showing significant vulvar enlargement and drainage, which was confirmed through biopsy.
- The case highlights the need for awareness of AVL post-surgery, and the successful staged excision approach could inform future treatment protocols for similar cases.
