The study involved 12 cases with intestinal smooth muscle tumor underwent operation at Viet Duc Hospital from 1990 to 1995. Findings: intestinal smooth muscle tumor occupied about 16% of intestinal malignant tumors. Most of cases were not diagnosed before surgery. Common clinical signs are abdominal pain, digestive troubles and weigh loss. The tumor can be touched by hand. Most of patients were removed the tumor and the related intestinal segment. Post-operation, there was not death or dehiscence of the anastomosis. Rate of infection is 8.3%. There were not any patients received chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Superficial cervicovaginal myofibroblastoma (SCVM) is extremely rare mesenchymal tumor arising low genital tract. SCVM is characterized by asymptomatic polypoid or nodular mass within the lamina propria. It is difficult to distinguish SCVM from other genital mesenchymal tumors because of similar morphologic features, however SCVM has distinctive histological and immunohistochemical profiles. SCVM is considered benign tumor which can be treated with simple excision and shows rare recurrence. We experienced two cases of SCVM which was treated with simple excision. We present these cases, along with a review of the relevant literatures.

Skeletal muscle metastasis is a relatively rare finding in the setting of mucinous adenocarcinoma of the colon, and it typically exhibits nonspecific imaging findings. We report a case of a skeletal muscle metastasis originating from mucinous adenocarcinoma of the cecum. The skeletal lesion closely resembled intramuscular myxoma with regard to imaging findings, due to abundant mucin and internal calcification.
