MANAGEMENT
Routine investigations done and posted for open myomectomy(Considering her age). Suspecting ureteric injuiry (as it is cervical fibroid), pre-op ureteric stents (double J) placed. Under SA, abd opened in layers. A friable mass occupying isthmic region and extending further down is seen.

Friable tissue was sent for frozen section section examination suspecting malignancy. Frozen section showed, small round cells with prominent nucleoli, confirming malignant nature of the tissue. Plan of management changed to TAH with BSO.

Bladder base separated from the mass with difficulty and further proceeded with TAH with BSO. Hemostasis secured and abd closed with drain in situ.
