TEACHING POINTS

1. To think outside the common obstetrical and gynecological diseases through a fun and interactive quiz format. 2. Emphasize the key imaging characteristics and typical clinical presentations which differentiate similar disease entities. 3. Provide pathologic correlates to reinforce the diseases presented.

TABLE OF CONTENTS/OUTLINE

Pelvic ultrasound and CT are extremely common examinations for the evaluation of a myriad of symptoms. Knowledge of the multiple pathologic processes which affect the female reproductive system is a part of day-to-day radiologic practice, not just the domain of the Ob-Gyn specialist. The cases will be presented in a fun and interactive quiz format with teaching points and description of the imaging/clinical findings following the cases. The cases are to focus on uncommon or atypical presentations of common Obstetrical and Gynecologicdiseases. In addition, several pathologic images will be included for completeness in describing the disease entity. Some examples of cases include: - Cervical Lymphoma - Cornual Choriocarcinoma - Well Differential Peritoneal Mesothelioma - Complex Nabothian Cysts Presenting as a Pelvic Mass - Uterine AVM - Broad ligament fibroid - Urethral Diverticulum - Pelvic Inflammatory Disease - Adnexal Torsion - Cesarean Section Scar Endometrioisis.
