SEPARATE COMPARTMENTS WITH BLACK AND ALBINO HAIRS PRESENTED IN AN OVARIAN TERATOMA IN NIGERIA: CASE REPORT

Authored by Wilson IB Onuigbo

Journals are replete with variations on the theme of ovarian teratomas. In this context, the senior author had written on this topic as far back as 1976, and as recently as 2015. Therefore, in this paper, attention is drawn to a curious case written up with another author. It concerned an ovarian teratoma containing different compartments exhibiting albino and black hairs respectively. Sadly, lack of follow-up prevented further advance such as considering familial albinism. Ovarian teratoma is illustrative of the special form of growth which exhibits the bodily three-germ cell elements . Likewise, there are several variations on the theme, including those written by the senior author (WO). Thus, beginning in 1976, others appeared as recently as 2015. Therefore, this joint Case Report concerns differently colored hair compartments in a teratoma in Nigeria.

 JUNIPER PUBLISHERS- JOURNAL OF GYNECOLOGY AND WOMEN’S HEALTH                         Journal of Gynecology and Women’s Health-Juniper Publishers Authored by  Martijn A Oudijk* Introduction Preterm birth, defined as birth before 37 weeks gestation, is a major contributor to perinatal morbidity and mortality. It occurs in 12,000 pregnancies in the Netherlands per year. Of all perinatal mortality, 50-70% can be attributed to preterm birth. Preterm birth can be iatrogenic due to the condition of the mother or the child, but the majority occurs spontaneously, either starting with preterm rupture of membranes (PROM) or with spontaneous contractions [ 1 - 3 ]. As such, spontaneous preterm birth is the leading cause of perinatal mortality and neonatal morbidity, mostly due to respiratory immaturity, intracranial hemorrhage and infections. These conditions can have long-term neuro developmental sequelae such as intellectual impairment, cerebral palsy, chr

Juniper Publishers : Mastophobia

     JUNIPER PUBLISHERS- JOURNAL OF GYNECOLOGY AND WOMEN’S HEALTH                                     Journal of Gynecology and Women’s Health-Juniper Publishers   Authored by  Giorgio M Baratelli*   Introduction Breasts have an all-important symbolic significance for a woman, as they represent two key aspects of femininity: maternity, and aesthetic and sexual pleasures.

This attitude may lead to a mild or severe phobia, which we called mastophobia. Methods We identified this phobia by observing some mildly affected women during their breast check-ups. We assumed that those who are severely affected are very likely to dismiss breast prevention. We searched for breast phobia and mastophobia on the internet and in the PubMed database but did not find any result. Still
