Oophoropexy to the Round Ligament after Recurrent Adnexal Torsion
We report a case of recurrent ipsilateral adnexal torsion in a woman with polycystic ovaries, previously submitted to a laparoscopic plication of the utero-ovarian ligament.

Comments on: Gene Polymorphisms in FAS (Rs3740286 and Rs4064) are Involved in Endometriosis Development in Brazilian Women, but not those in CASP8 (rs13416436 and rs2037815)
Abstract The present study is a case report of vulvar lipoma. The vulva is a rare site for the development of lipomas, and the aim of the study is to determine if the current imaging modalities can diagnose lipomas correctly. A 43-year-old patient presented with a painless, slowly progressive, oval, mobile and non-tender right vulvar mass compressing the vagina and totally covering the introitus. Both the ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams suggested the diagnosis of lipoma. Surgical excision was performed, and the histopathological examination of the mass confirmed a lipoma. (Source: Revista Brasile...
