Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is a rare uterine neoplasm. Tumor involvement of the large vessels is extremely rare. This is a case report of ESS with tumor invasion of the inferior vena cava at initial presentation.

Purpose: The objectives of this study were as follows: to present the course and outcome of pregnancies complicated with fetal ventriculomegaly, determine the association between prenatal ultrasound diagnoses and definitive postnatal diagnosis or diagnoses after autopsy and additional analysis, and to monitor the psychomotor development of children bom with ventriculomegaly. Materials and Methods: The survey was designed as retrospective study and included 62 pregnant women who were attending a regular ultrasound examinations at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Clinical Center of Serbia, or patients who were referred from other institutions in Serbia. Results: Ventriculomegalies were divided into three groups: mild, moderate, and severe or hydrocephalus. The most common were severe ventriculomegalies, with 34 cases (55%). Of all pregnancies complicated with ventriculomegalies, 61% were terminated. Among those continued, 88% had normal psychomotor development. In 97% ultrasonographic diagnosis was confirmed. Conclusion: Majority of pregnancies complicated with ventriculomegaly were continued and most of the children bom with anomalies had normal psychomotor development.

Purpose: The objectives of this study were as follows: to present the course and outcome of pregnancies complicated with neural tube defects, determine the association between prenatal ultrasound diagnoses, and definitive diagnoses after autopsy. Matherial and Methods: The survey was designed as a retrospective study and included 24 pregnant women who were attending a regular ultrasound examinations at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Clinical Center of Serbia, or patients who were referred from other institutions in Serbia. Results: Neural tube defects are divided into five subgroups: spina bifida, meningocele, myelomeningocele, acranius, and anencephaly. The most frequent in the present study was spina bifida with 67%. All pregnancies complicated with neural tube defects were terminated. Conclusion: Their clinical severity and uncertain cause make them priorities for further research, whether to better target primary preventive measures, to improve in-utero surgery for prenatal repair, or to identify the causative genes to provide an objective basis for individual genetic counselling.

Introduction: Metastatic renal cell carcinoma is often found in distant organs, including lung, bone, brain,and liver. Metastases to the vagina are extremely rare. Case Report: The authors present a case of renal cell carcinoma metastasis to the anterior vaginal wall four months after nephrectomy in a 56-year-old patient. The vaginal lesions were excised. After two years the patient had no signs of recurrence or the disease progression. Conclusion: Vaginal metastases should be considered in differential diagnosis of female renal cell carcinoma patients presenting with vaginal bleeding of mass.
