Laparoscopic excision of a big paratubal cyst (6 cm). Rather than the cyst alone, the whole mass of the cyst, tube and ovary was excised at the request of the attending gynaecologist. The other tube also coagulated with bipolar diathermy and cut (patient’s demand).

Carcinoid ileum – Right hemicolectomy for a presumed cancer caecum. A big mass palpable in RLQ of abdomen in a 20 years old female!. Getting obstructed with solid feeds, so kept on liquids for some days. CT showed mass in the caecum and ascending colon. Cut section showed mass in wall of terminal ileum rather than the lumen of caecum. Turned out to be carcinoid on histopathology and immunohistochemistry.
