Sarcoma botryoides of the uterine cervix in a young woman: a case report.

Among the rhabdomyosarcomas, which represent an uncommon neoplasm of mesoderm origin comprising about 1% of all female genital malignancies, sarcoma botryoides (SB) is an embrional variant usually found in the vagina of infants and young children under 16 years of age. The onset of SB from the uterine cervix is very rare with a peak incidence in the second decade; only a few cases have been published in the international literature so far. The authors report a case of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the uterine cervix which occurred in a young woman treated by radical surgery, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Pseudomixoma peritonei: a case report.

Pseudomixoma Peritonei (PMP) is an uncommon neoplasm characterised by mucinous ascites and multifocal amorphous mucous substances involving the peritoneal surface, omentum and bowel loops. Although the origin of the Pseudomixoma Peritonei is still unclear, it could be due to the perforation of an ovarian mucinous cystoadenoma or an appendiceal mucocele. The further pelvic dissemination of the endotumor material, which adhere itself into the peritoneal surface, may induce an intra-abdominal transformation of the peritoneal mesothelium into mucin-producing tissue. A case of Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP) which occurred in a young woman is reported.
