a Broad Ligament solitary fibrous tumor with doege potter syndrome
Medicine, 2018Co-Authors: Sijing Chen, Ying Zheng, Lin Chen, Qihua YiAbstract:INTRODUCTION: Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are uncommon mesenchymal neoplasms and are particularly rare in the female genital tract. Doege-Potter syndrome is a paraneoplastic syndrome involving SFT-associated hypoglycemia. We report, for the first time, on a Broad Ligament SFT with Doege-Potter syndrome; additionally, we review 30 cases of women with SFTs reported in the literature. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 37-year-old woman who presented with life-threatening hypoglycemia and a pelvic mass (16 × 15 × 15 cm). DIAGNOSES: The patient was diagnosed with Broad Ligament SFT with Doege-Potter syndrome. INTERVENTIONS: Tumor resection, sub-extensive hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and pelvic lymphadenectomy were performed, and 6 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy were administered. OUTCOMES: Serum glucose levels returned to normal as soon as the tumor was resected. Forty-3 months after operation, there was recurrence in the posterior peritoneal tissues. She underwent tumor resection and has remained tumor-free 28 months after this excision. CONCLUSION: Even though it is extremely rare, SFT should be quickly identified to prevent undue treatment delay and avoid unnecessary examination; surgery and long-term follow-up are recommended. SFT can be considered a highly invasive cancer, and intraoperative bleeding may occur. Although no correlation between adjuvant therapy and improved prognosis was found, further studies are required because of the small number of cases reported to date.

small bowel obstruction due to Broad Ligament hernia computed tomography findings
Hernia, 2011Co-Authors: Barbier B Brion, C Daragon, O Idelcadi, Georges Mantion, B Kastler, E DelabrousseAbstract:We report a case of surgically confirmed small bowel obstruction due to hernia through a defect in the Broad Ligament. Multi-detector computed tomography (CT) demonstrated the presence and the precise location of this very unusual internal pelvic hernia. Those CT findings are presented here.

pseudo meigs syndrome due to Broad Ligament leiomyoma a mimic of metastatic ovarian carcinoma
Clinical Oncology, 1998Co-Authors: R S D Brown, J L Marley, A M CassoniAbstract:Abstract Pseudo-Meigs' syndrome is a rare complication of benign leiomyomas of the female genital tract. We report a patient with pseudo-Meigs' syndrome due to a large Broad Ligament leiomyoma, which also caused bilateral reversible hydronephrosis. This unusual combination of pseudo-Meigs' syndrome, Broad Ligament leiomyoma and hydronephrosis requiring ureteric stenting does not appear to have been reported previously. Features of the syndrome that led to a diagnostic problem, the mimicking of metastatic ovarian carcinoma, are presented. The little that is known of the pathogenesis of the pleural and ascitic fluids is discussed. An elevated level of serum CA 125 antigen is reported, we believe for the first time in association with pseudo- Meigs' syndrome.

the complicated allen masters syndrome small bowel herniation through a Broad Ligament defect
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2014Co-Authors: Ivo C J H Post, Astrid Vollebregt, Nazar Bokani, Niels De KorteAbstract:Small bowel obstruction through a Broad Ligament defect is a very rare condition. We present 2 cases, one without any associated abdominal trauma. Rapid diagnosis and treatment of this rare condition is of paramount importance.
