Germ cell tumors are malignant (cancerous) or nonmalignant (benign, noncancerous) tumors that are comprised mostly of germ cells, the cells that develop in the embryo and become the cells that make up the reproductive system in male and female. Most ovarian tumors are of germ cell origin. A 18-year-old virginal Syrian female was taken to the emergency Department at Damascus university of obstetrics and gynecology on 31.1.2023 with gradual distension of abdomen which had been noticed by parents for the last 6 months. As bedside ultrasonography (USG) showed mixed echogenic mass in the lower abdomen, CT scan of abdomen was requested for further delineation. CT scan of abdomen done on 1.2.2023 showed a giant (about 13×23×26 cm) mixed density mass with homogenously enhancing well defined borders in the abdomen extending from the pelvic cavity to the epigastric region and crossing the medial line causing significant pressure effect downwards towards urinary bladder and contrast material filled guts outwards and backwards mostly occupying the anterior part of abdominal cavity. The tumor was removed surgically and diagnosed as ovarian teratoma histopathologically.

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) despite being a rare endocrine malignancy arising from adrenal cortex carries a poor prognosis. It is also challenging to diagnose these tumours preoperatively especially if it is a non-functioning tumour. As the rarity of the disease pose a great challenge in taking up statistically significant studies that would be needed to improve the management strategies and outcomes of ACC, all the recommendations are based on retrospective case series or expert opinions. Hence Multidisciplinary approach is warranted to improve the outcomes in the management of ACC. Despite the enormous progress achieved in the biological knowledge of this tumor, the ACC remains an oncological disease burdened by a high mortality. Surgery is still the first therapeutic option and the only potentially curative treatment.

Retiform hemangioendotheliomas are extremely rare tumors of vascular origin. Overall incidence of hemangioendothelioma being <1/1000000. They are low grade angiosarcomas with little risk of metastasis. It usually occurs as a single skin or subcutaneous lesion on the trunk or extremities commonly seen in middle aged adults [1] . Due to its rarity no well-defined guidelines are there for its management, follow up and dealing with local recurrence [2] . Therefore we would like to discuss the case of Retiform Hemangioendothelioma over scapular region in an adult lady which presented with its classical features and how it was managed.

Colonic diverticular bleeding is the most common cause of overt, acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding in adults. Patients with diverticular bleeding usually experience large volume hematochezia and require hospitalization for management. Colonoscopy is the test of choice for most patients, although patients with massive bleeding may require computed tomography (CT) angiography followed by angiography. Surgical intervention for diverticular bleeding is reserved for patients who have failed all other modalities. Colonic diverticular bleeding is the most common cause of hematochezia (maroon or bright red blood) in hospitalized patients, although the proportion of cases attributed to diverticular bleeding varies across series. For example, 13 percent of cases were attributed to diverticular bleeding in a multicenter study in the United Kingdom versus 63 percent in a multicenter study in Japan. We present the case of 60 yrs old male patient who presented with the complaint of pain in abdomen and blood clots per rectum (Approx. 500 - 600 ml)
