Placenta percreta complicated with uterine rupture in the third trimester: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Placenta accreta is characterized by the abnormal attachment of the placenta to the myometrium without the usual presence of decidua in between. In its percreta form, this attachment extends deeply into the myometrial wall, reaching the serosa and occasionally affecting nearby organs like the bladder and rectum. The advancement of these conditions often leads to hemorrhagic complications, significantly jeopardizing maternal well-being.

The characteristic appearance on MRI is a T2 and T2* hyposignal of the anterior pituitary gland without enhancement, respecting the pituitary stalk and the posterior pituitary gland.

Retroperitoneal paraganglioma.

Paragangliomas are rare tumors of the neuroendocrine system that form near certain blood vessels (paraaortic and carotid) and nerves, often presenting heterogeneous parenchyma and displaying strong contrast enhancement on computed tomography. Underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis of this tumor are suspected as they can be silent, of small size, or confused with other structures.

A tumor association to be aware: endometrial cancer and colon cancer in relation to Lynch syndrome.

lynch syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder with incomplete penetration caused by a germline mutation in one of the genes of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mismatch repair system (MMR) namely: mutL homolog 1 (MLH1), mutS homolog 2 (MSH2), mutS homolog 6 (MHS6), post-meiotic segregation increased 1 homolog 2 (PMS2) or the EpCAM (Epithelial CellAdhesionMolecule) gene, which causes the inactivation of MSH2. Patients with this syndrome have a high relative risk of developing cancers at a young age, led by colorectal cancer (CRC) and endometrial cancer in females. The diagnosis is suspected when the patient's personal and family history meets the Amsterdam or Bethesda criteria.

Unusual case of small bowel intussusception in adult revealing a Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.

Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by hyperpigmented mucocutaneous macules, hamartomatous polyps of the small intestine, and family history.
