Primary ovarian serous adenocarcinoma with ipsilateral axillary lymph node metastasis: a case report.

Axillary lymph node metastasis from primary ovarian cancer is rare. Here, we reporting a unique case of 45 years old who presented with axillary lymph node metastasis which was thought from breast carcinoma but it turned out to be due to ovarian serous adenocarcinoma confirmed by histopathology & immunohistochemistry. Staging laparotomy (IIIc) with hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was done. Post-operatively, the patient was given adjuvant chemotherapy. No local or systemic recurrence was noted during 1 year follow up period.

Symmetrical peripheral gangrene with Plasmodium falciparum malaria.

Symmetric peripheral gangrene is rare and relatively uncommon complication of malaria. We report a case of a 50-year-old male who survived Plasmodium falciparum infection with disseminated intravascular coagulation. Symmetric peripheral gangrene in our case, which ultimately required amputation of the toes, was most likely due to interaction between parasitic factors and host factors.
