Rare concomitant myxoid and cystic degeneration of uterine leiomyoma: Case report
The uterine leiomyomas are monoclonal tumours of myometrial smooth muscle cells that are oestrogen dependent. A 43-year-old patient was referred by her gynaecologist under a suspected diagnosis of ovarian tumour. She complained of prolonged and profuse, regular menstrual bleeding that leaded to anae...
