摘要
An unusual case of bilateral Krukenberg tumors having a predominant multicystic mucinous component which on gross and microscopic examination resembled a mucinous cystadenocarcinoma is presented. It is important to distinguish between these two tumors as Krukenberg tumours have a significantly worse prognosis.

A case of polymyositis associated with Bancroftian filariasis in an adult male who presented with generalised painful swelling and weakness of muscles is presented. He had elevated muscle enzymes, a myopathic EMG pattern, focal vasculitis on gastrocnemius muscle biopsy and W. bancrofti in the peripheral blood. There was clinical, biochemical and histopathological evidence of resolution of the disorder and total clearance of microfilaremia with diethyl carbamazine (DEC) therapy.
