It has the potential of malignant transformation but does not metastasise. It may coexist with endometrial hyperplasia and adenocarcinoma; and so, is usually misdiagnosed. It is composed of atypical endometrial glands along with bundles of smooth muscle fibres. It has a high incidence of recurrence. We describe a case of APAM, which was managed at a tertiary care hospital. A 25-year woman with irregular vaginal bleeding and abdominal mass had total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) on suspicion of endometrial sarcoma. Histopathology specimen revealed APAM. On follow-up so far, she is in stable condition and asymptomatic. Key Words: Atypical polypoid adenomyosis, Adenosarcoma, Endometrial carcinoma.

The medical students of today belong to Generation Z whereas the medical teachers belong to Generation X and the Baby Boomers generation. This can result in inefficient knowledge sharing. This study aims to delve into one aspect of this i.e. to compare the familiarity and use of Web 2.0 technologies in the aforementioned groups. Method Instruments from other similar studies were used to develop a paper-based quantitative questionnaire administered to 128 students and 63 teachers at Foundation University Medical College, Rawalpindi. The data was analyzed via SPSS. Results A digital divide was found to exist between medical students and teachers. Both the groups were found reasonably well exposed to Web 2.0 technologies. However, the teachers use these tools for educational purposes more often as compared to the students. Conclusion Web 2.0 technologies have the potential to revolutionize medical education...
