Tuberculosis of the female external genitalia is unusual and primary
infection is rare. We report a 50-year-old female patient admitted to
Department to Surgery with swelling over left inguinal area with discharging sinus from labia majora to left inguinal crease which was found to be tubercular sinus on histopathology.
Background: Brachytherapy is an integral component of the definitive treatment of locally advanced cancer cervix. Cervical Brachytherapy has evolved from the time when dose prescription was largely empirical, to the image based conformal brachytherapy advocated by Groupe Europeen de Curie Therapie-European society for therapeutic radiology and oncology (GEC-ESTRO) and American brachytherapy society (ABS).
Introduction: Anorectal melanoma is a rare and aggressive malignancy. Patients commonly present with advanced or metastatic disease. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 60-year-old man who presented with constipation and per rectal bleeding. Abdominal CT scan showed metastasis in liver and spleen along with disease spread in inguinal, iliac and abdominal lymph nodes. He was treated with single agent Dacarbazine and ultimately succumbed to the disease. Conclusions: Anorectal melanoma remains a disease with dismal prognosis especially when the patient presents with distant metastasis.
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.
