Uterine leiomyomas are the most common benign uterine tumors. They are estimated to be present in at least 20% of all women of reproductive age and may be asymptomatic in 40-50% of women older than 40 years of age. They may be subserosal, intramural, or submucosal in location within the uterus or located in the cervix, in the broad ligament, or on a pedicle. But it seems to be rare to experience a intraligamentary huge leiomyoma in the broad ligament.Recently we have experienced a case of intraligamentary huge leiomyoma with its weight of 3146 gm in 45 year-old primiparous woman. We present this case with a brief review of the literature.

The vast majority of malignant tumors involving the vagina are secondary spread from primary malignant lesion of the cervix uteri, the sigmoid colon, the bladder and the vulva. Primary invasive carcinoma of the vagina remains among the rare gynecologic malignant tumor. The diagnosis of primary carcinoma of the vagina requires that the cervix and the vulva be intact and no clinical evidence of other primary tumors exist. Greater than 80-90% of all vaginal tumors are squamous cell type. We experienced two cases of primary vaginal cancer of 68 years old woman without any other gynecologic disease and 67 years old woman after hysterectomy for benign desease. We presented these cases with a brief review of related literatures.
