Vaginal leiomyoma is a rare condition. Approximately 300 cases have been reported in the literature so far. We present a case of 47 years old patient with a rapidly growing vaginal myoma which was diagnosed three months after a supravaginal hysterectomy due to uterine myoma and was suspicious for malignancy

The dislocation of the prosthesized hip is a relevant postoperative complication; this adverse outcome is dependent on the specific patient anatomy and on the artificial joint design. The geometry of the reconstructed hip is one of the key factors and it is usually designed at the time of the preoperative planning when the stem model and size, the head diameter and its offset, and the acetabular cup orientation are selected.

Foetal distress is the distress of the foetus prior to or during labour and is used to describe foetal hypoxia. Foetal distress can manifest as intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), increased vascular resistance, hypoxia, and acidosis. Hypoxia can result in foetal death if not corrected or delivery is not done immediately.

Complicated giant perianal condylomata accuminata transforming into squamous cell carcinoma in a patient with latent syphilis: Case report and literature review
Giant condylomata accuminata (CA) is a pre-malignant tumour, which commonly involves the genital area. Human papilloma virus (HPV) 6 and 11 are the most common causative pathogens for this rapidly growing tumour. (CA) has been also associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, 40 to 60 per cent of benign (CA) transforms to malignancy. The main risk factors for HPV infection and subsequently condylomata include risky sexual behaviours, early pregnancy and tobacco use.

Three-dimensional (3D) printing has shown great promise with increased applications in the medical field. 3D printed models are reported to accurately replicate normal anatomy and pathology, assist pre-surgical planning and simulation, serve as a useful tool for medical education and improve patient-doctor communication. Another unique application of 3D printed realistic models is to develop optimal computed tomography (CT) scanning protocols for investigation of scanning parameters with low radiation dose while still achieving diagnostic images.

A 14-year-old girl presented with pain during the motion of knee joint. Multiple loose bodies were detected in proximal tibiofibular joint area in simple radiography. MRI demonstrated multiple small calcifications in the cystic lesion which was located around the popliteus muscle from the proximal area of fibular head to the tibial attachment area of popliteus muscle.

Edentulism is frequently observed in older individuals, and edentulous patients with conventional prostheses have reported lack of retention, support, stability, and chewing and phonation failures. Overdentures are a good option for rehabilitation of edentulous patients. Two or more implants supporting a milled bar with attachments may be used for rehabilitation of these patients, since this arrangement allows very limited rotation and vertical movement, thereby increasing patient satisfaction.

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection with hypothyroidism in a 45-year-old man
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a rare cause of acute coronary syndrome in young persons, rarely found in men. There are currently no known direct causes of this condition, although some correlations have been found. We report the case of a 45-year-old man with unstable angina pectoris secondary to spontaneous diffuse spiral dissection in the right coronary artery.

Modern surgical treatment of malignant skin melanoma: A brief literature overview
Malignant melanoma (MM) of the skin is a rare, highly malignant tumour, affecting younger age. Its incidence rate has been rising as compared to all malignant neoplasms – 5 per cent of all newly diagnosed cancers in men, and 6 per cent of those in women.

Barriers to support nurses as second victim of medical errors: A qualitative study
Given the inevitability of medical errors and their impact on health workers, providing support to those who suffer is vital for their physical and mental recovery. Identifying the barriers to obtaining support is imperative in this regard.

High flexion total knee arthroplasty using short posterior flange of femoral component mid-term results
High-flexion designs for total knee arthroplasty were introduced and promoted greater and safer knee flexion. However, early loosening of the femoral component related to the deep flexion was reported with high incidence.

Retroperitoneal pelvic invasion in ovarian cancer: Possible modes of spread and survival impact
Ovarian cancer is the second-most common malignancy and the leading cause of death in women who develop cancers of gynaecologic origin and it spread primarily by direct exfoliation of cells along the peritoneal surface. Interesting fact, although not well studied, is that these tumours invade the mesothelium but very rarely they invade the peritoneum deeper through direct extension.
