Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF)-producing cancer has been reported to occur in various organs. It has an aggressive nature and shows resistance to conventional treatments, however, its clinical features are not well known because of the small number or reported cases. We report G-CSF-producing squamous cell carcinoma arising in malignant-transformed ovarian mature cystic teratoma....

Hydatid disease is a widespread parasitic infection caused by tapeworm Echinococcus and it affects mainly the liver, but other organs such as pelvic organs could be involved very rare. Here we report a case of hydatid cyst with involvement of oviduct in a woman with endometrial cancer. It was misdiagnosed as a multicystic right ovarian mass before surgery and by microscopic study it was shown a...
