BACKGROUND: Müllerian agenesis, the second most common cause of primary amenorrhea, affects 1 in 4,000 to 10,000 women. Although the majority of these women have complete absence of the uterus, a small percentage can have a rudimentary uterus. CASE: A menopausal nulligravida with known müllerian agenesis developed a large pelvic mass and an inguinal hernia. The patient underwent an exploratory laparotomy, which revealed a large leiomyoma growing from a small rudimentary uterus, an indirect inguinal hernia, and bilateral benign serous cystadenofibroma. CONCLUSION: Women with müllerian agenesis and rudimentary uteri can develop gynecologic pathology similar to women with normal genital tracts.

We describe the case of a 72-year-old man in whom a bronchopleural fistula developed after induction chemotherapy followed by right pneumonectomy for lung cancer. Resuturing of the right main bronchial stump, endoscopic treatment, and repair using a latissimus dorsi muscle flap were not effective. Consequently we placed a modified Dumon stent in the carina, which effectively closed the stump.
