    Abstract Abdominal wall endometriosis refers to the presence of endometrial tissue within surgical scars, most commonly occurring following gynecological procedures such as cesarean sections. This case report presents a rare case of abdominal wall endometriosis in a cesarean scar. The patient, a 32-year-old woman with a history of two previous cesarean sections, presented with cyclic pain and swelling in the lower abdominal region. Physical examination revealed a tender, well-defined mass within the cesarean scar. Surgical excision of the mass was performed, and histopathological examination confirmed the presence of endometrial tissue. This case highlights the importance of considering abdominal wall endometriosis in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with cyclic pain or swelling in previous surgical scars. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate management can help alleviate symptoms and prevent complications.

    Abstract Actinomycosis, a rare chronic bacterial infection caused by Actinomyces species, presents diagnostic challenges due to diverse clinical presentations. This report presents a case of peritoneal actinomycosis incidentally discovered during a total abdominal hysterectomy in a 44-year-old female with refractory abnormal uterine bleeding and a history of long-term intrauterine contraceptive device use. The patient presented with persistent abnormal uterine bleeding despite conservative management. Intraoperative findings during total abdominal hysterectomy revealed peritoneal involvement, prompting histopathological evaluation confirming actinomycosis. This case highlights diagnostic complexities associated with actinomycosis, emphasizing the significance of histopathological confirmation. Postoperative management with antibiotics demonstrated favorable outcomes, supporting their efficacy in treating actinomycosis. The case underscores the importance of considering uncommon infections in pelvic pathology, particularly in patients with prolonged intrauterine contraceptive device usage. It prompts further exploration of actinomycosis in relation to intrauterine contraceptive device use and highlights the need for timely intervention and histopathological confirmation for optimal patient care.

    Abstract Introduction: Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura poses unique challenges in surgical settings due to an increased risk of bleeding. This report details the perioperative management of a patient with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura undergoing Total Abdominal Hysterectomy, emphasizing the importance of tailored approaches for such cases.
    Case presentation: A 41-year-old female with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura and symptomatic uterine fibroids, despite medical management, opted for Total Abdominal Hysterectomy. Prednisolone therapy and platelet transfusion were used preoperatively to optimize platelet counts.
    Discussion: Effective management was achieved through meticulous surgery, continued prednisolone therapy, and vigilant postoperative monitoring. This case highlights the value of a multidisciplinary approach in ensuring positive surgical outcomes for Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura patients.
    Conclusion and recommendation: This case underscores the significance of individualized perioperative care for Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura patients undergoing major surgery. By optimizing medical therapy and maintaining close monitoring, favorable results can be achieved, enhancing the quality of life for such patients. It is recommended that such comprehensive approaches are considered in similar cases.

    Abstract Introduction and importance: Endometriosis is a common cause of infertility in women. In this case report we explain successful conception in deep-infiltrating ovarian endometriosis following robot-assisted surgery and androgenic agonist treatment.
    Case presentation: A 38-year-old current Para 2, Living 2 presented 8 years ago with chronic lower abdominal pain, dysmenorrhea, and delayed conception. Advance endometriosis was highly suspected from the history and examination. Robot-assisted laparoscopic partial cystectomy was performed for the deep-infiltrating ovarian endometriosis. She was then discharged with postoperative androgenic agonists and with timed intercourse, she got pregnant within 9 months.
    Clinical discussion: Advanced endometriosis (Stage III or IV disease) is associated with distorted pelvic anatomy and adhesions. These changes can impair oocyte release or pick-up, alter sperm motility, cause disordered myometrial contractions, and impair fertilization and embryo transport. Successful rate of conception in advanced endometriosis is <20 %, with minimal chances of successful conception, however, our patient conceived.
    Conclusion: Endometriosis should be considered in evaluation of reproductive woman with chronic lower abdominal pain, history of infertility and dysmenorrhea. Prompt management is crucial, and in a setting of advanced technology, robotic laparoscopic surgery is the best to diagnosis and treat advanced endometriosis.

    Abstract Introduction and importance: Cervical vasovagal shock is termed as stimulation either by instruments or products of conception at cervical os results into bradycardia and hypotension. In primary care settings cervical vasovagal shock can occur during insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD) or any cervical stimulation during physical examination. This case we highlight an uncommon complication of incomplete abortion which is the rare cause of cervical vasovagal shock.
    Case presentation: A 42-year-old Gravida 3 Para 2 Living 2 with Gestational age of 12 weeks presented with vaginal spotting for 2 days. Initial examination she was conscious with normal vital signs. However, after initiation of medical management of incomplete abortion, she had increased per vaginal bleeding with hypotension and bradycardia. Speculum examination was done; this revealed products of conceptus in cervical os and a diagnosis of cervical vasovagal shock was made. Patient was then counselled for evacuation and informed consent was sought. She was taken for evacuation; suction and gentle curettage was done. Post evacuation patients' vitals returned to normal ranges, and patient taken to the ward to continue with post procedure management.
    Clinical discussion: Bleeding in the first trimester is a common presentation in up to 30 % in early pregnancies and more than 50 % of those will go on to have a normal pregnancy. Most patients with incomplete abortion present at emergence department with shock, this will commonly be due to sepsis, hypovolemia, or haemorrhage. In this case report with discuss a rare cause of shock in women with incomplete abortion.
    Conclusion: Cervical vasovagal effect of the products of conception passing through the cervix causes a reflex bradycardia. It is crucial as physician attending women with incomplete abortion to make sure all the product of conception are passed out and in situation if there is remaining products of conception in the cervix should be removed using a sponge-holding forceps to prevent vasovagal stimulation in the cervix.
