Background: Vaginal atresia (VA) is a rare female genital tract malformation characterized by the absence or incomplete development of the vagina, often leading to cyclic abdominal pain and menstrual blood retention in adolescent patients. Vaginal atresia is often accompanied by multiple organ malformations. The condition poses significant challenges in diagnosis and management, requiring a multidisciplinary approach.
Case Description: Herein, we report a case of type I congenital VA in a 13-year-old female presenting with congenital biliary atresia and urinary system malformation. Upon initial evaluation, the patient exhibited VA incision and laparoscopic excision of a left ovarian cyst under general anesthesia. By the 2-month follow-up, the patient reported normal menstrual flow without accompanying abdominal pain.
Conclusion: This case underscores the complexity of type I congenital VA concurrent with multiple organ malformations. Timely identification and proper management strategies are crucial for securing the best possible patient outcomes. Further research is warranted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and improve treatment modalities for such cases.

Rationale: Intraplacental choriocarcinoma (IC) coexisting with fetomaternal hemorrhage (FMH) in term pregnancy is rare and life-threatening for the mother and baby. The limited knowledge of this disease leads to delayed or missed diagnosis. This case report aims to illustrate how to avoid missed diagnosis through a more complicated case by the presence of fetal intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt (IPSVS).

This is the first report of hemorrhagic cutaneous syndrome induced by contact with venomous caterpillars in a 29-year-old woman living in the northern Ecuadorian Amazon. Reported cases of hemorrhagic cutaneous syndrome are rare and are characterized by dermal lesions, systemic bleeding, and coagulation abnormalities. The woman had contact on her right thigh with caterpillars resting on the trunk of a tree which resulted in local irritation and pain, headache, dizziness, and vomiting.

Introduction: Cervical cancer remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among women, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), despite being largely preventable. In India, delayed diagnosis and limited access to screening contribute to late-stage presentation. This study evaluates the effectiveness of visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) and Papanicolaou (Pap) smear, and their correlation with colposcopic findings.
