Morphometric case study of ‘wandering’ fibroid with developmental correlation

2020 
Parasitic/Wandering fibroid is a subserosal uterine benign neoplasm with unusual locations that can puzzle radiological findings and diagnosis. In our study, a 63 years old female cadaver showed an accidental finding of a fibroid band extending from the anterior surface of the uterus to the lower part of the greater omentum. We aim to study the morphometry of the parasitic band with discussion on the development of the uterus and omentum to find possible congenital connections of this fibroid band. Keywords: Embryology, Fibroid, Leiomyoma, Parasitic, Uterus, Wandering.
