Chromoblastomycosis is primarily a cutaneous mycosis caused by demetiaceous fungi. Microscopic examination with findings of muriform bodies are pathognomonic for the diagnosis of Chromoblastomycosis and if not specifically looked for, there is a chance of missing the diagnosis leading to improper treatment and complications. Here we report 2 cases, one of a middle aged woman, the other of an elderly man presenting with lower limb skin lesions histopathologically diagnosed as chromoblastomycosis.
Primary leiomyoma of the ovary is a rare tumour, accounting
for about 0.5–1% of all the benign ovarian tumours.
Approximately 70 cases have been reported in the literature
[1,2]. As these tumours are usually very small in size, they may
be missed during the routine evaluation of the surgical
oophorectomy specimens [3,4,5]. Here, we report a case of
primary ovarian leiomyoma which was diagnosed
incidentally on histopathological examination.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
