Purpose: Leiomyoma is a rare benign tumor of nonstriated muscles. Leiomyoma is most commonly found in the uterus and rarely occur in the hand. 150 cases of leiomyoma of the hand have been reported in the English literature; however, to the best of our knowledge only four of these have been in children and none were reported in Korean literature. We present a case of leiomyoma in the hand of a 8 - year - old boy, which is a rare site for localization and unusual for age. Methods: A 8 - year - old boy presented with a painless mass on the ulnar side of his thumb. Physical examination revealed a $1.2{\times}1.2cm$ round, rubbery mass that was nontender to palpation. The vascular, sensory, and motor exams were otherwise unremarkable. Further evaluation with CT demonstrated an enhancing mass at dorsoulnar aspect of 1st proximal phalangeal region suggestive of a hemangioma versus other enhancing solid mass. The diagnosis of a leiomyoma was confirmed following surgical excision with histologic evaluation. Results: At 3 months follow - up, the incision was healed, motor and sensory function were intact, and there were full range of motion. Neither recurrence nor postoperative complication were observed. Conclusion: Leiomyoma is a rare tumor of the hand, especially in children. Diagnosing hand tumors in children is more difficult than in adults, hand surgeons should be aware of the diagnostic possibilities based on examination and imaging of a hand tumor ; however, surgical excision with histologic examination is required for definitive diagnosis.

Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich (HWW) syndrome is a rare congenital malformation syndrome that is characterized by a triad of uterine didelphys, blind hemivagina, and ipsilateral renal agenesis. There is a wide variety of phenotypic presentation which is recognized as a spectrum of disease rather than a separate entity. The exact incidence and pathogenesis of HWW syndrome are yet to be investigated. While this disease typically involves adolescent girls who present with abdominal pain or a pelvic mass that is secondary to hematocolpos, nowadays, a majority of potential patients with HWW are being prenatally screened for renal anomalies. Therefore, it is recommended to search for uterovaginal anomalies whenever a multicystic dysplastic kidney or the absence of a kidney is noted in a newborn female, and the role of pediatric nephrologists has become ever more important for early recognition of the disease.

A 28-year-old woman presented with a 1-year history of severe progressive dysmenorrhea following suction evacuation and tubal ligation. Sonography showed a bicornuate uterus with hematometra in the left horn. Hysteroscopy ruled out a diagnosis of a congenital Müllerian anomaly, as both ostia appeared normal. Under laparoscopy, a mass was seen on the left fundal region near the insertion of the round ligament, and needle aspiration of a chocolate-colored fluid confirmed the diagnosis of an adenomyotic cyst. The cyst was excised. The patient recovered well and has been symptom-free since surgery. Adenomyotic cyst is a rare entity in young women and must be differentiated from obstructive Müllerian anomaly. Laparoscopy is the preferred minimally invasive modality for managing this rare disorder.

Myofibroblastic sarcoma can be classified as low-, intermediate-, and high-grade. Low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma (LGMS) is uncommon and rarely appears on the skin. LGMS is diagnosed based on histopathological and immunohistochemical findings. Additionally, LGMS metastases are rare as well. Herein, the authors describe a case of cutaneous LGMS in the neck. To the best of our knowledge, there are no cases regarding cutaneous LGMS in the neck present in the existing literature. Surgical resection is considered as the most important treatment for LGMS. Therefore, a complete tumor resection was performed in this case. However, another mass in the uterus was identified on abdominal computed tomography performed post-surgery.

Adenosarcoma of the uterus is a rare biphasic tumor containing benign glandular epithelial and malignant mesenchymal components. The tumor has been reported to be associated with antiestrogen therapy, particularly tamoxifen, but there have been a few case reports with MRI. We present two cases of MRI findings of uterine adenosarcoma after antiestrogen therapy, tamoxifen and toremifene in breast cancer patients. The tumor presents as a large polypoid mass occupying the endometrial cavity, and may protrude into the vagina. On MRI, the tumor typically shows solid components with scattered small cysts and heterogeneous enhancement. These findings are not significantly different from conventional adenosarcoma.
