Abstract
BackgroundMaldescended ovaries are a rare condition. Despite its different embryologic development with the uterus, maldescended ovary is usually accompanied by uterine malformations and is found during the course of infertility. In other cases, it may be incidentally diagnosed in examinations due to abdominal pain or in a survey of finding paraneoplastic origin. Probable immune-related developmental conditions are associated with this abnormality; sometimes cross-reaction with other immune-related diseases is possible.Case presentationHere, the probable paraneoplastic origin is surveyed for a patient with coexisting inflammatory myositis and myasthenia gravis. According to this survey non recognized Mullerian duct and ovarian anomalies were found.ConclusionsKnowledge about this anatomical abnormality is helpful for clinicians to prevent misdiagnosis and improper management. Moreover, understanding the probability of accompanying other conditions such as immune-related and neuromuscular junction disorders with Mullerian duct anomalies can offer a comprehensive insight.
