ABSTRACT
Postmenopausal patient presenting with pain and lump in abdomen should be considered as a complication caused by gynaecological malignancy unless proved otherwise pyometra is most common in postmenopausal women but it can affect women of child bearing age as well. Usually it is caused by impairment of natural drainage of the cervix due to malignant diseases of genital tract and consequences of their treatment with radiotherapy. Authors report one such case with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia with uterus markedly enlarged to 26-28 weeks size with Vaginal stenosis in an eighty-year-old postmenopausal patient.
ABSTRACT
Large population-based studies on stroke report that intracerebral haemorrhage is rare in young women however it is a grave and disturbing complication of pregnancy. Preeclampsia is usually clinically silent, but may cause symptoms of neurological dysfunction such as headache, visual disturbances and impairment of consciousness. Eclampsia is in the occurrence of seizures in the context of preeclampsia and is often, but not always, preceded by the above neurological symptoms. Most published data support the view that preeclampsia and eclampsia are important causative factors for pregnancy related ICH. Sparse data is available with respect to the management of such cases. Identification of near miss cases is an important step in reducing mortality. Herein we report a near miss case of eclampsia with intracranial haemorrhage requiring craniotomy.
