Scalp Mass

Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is a rare mesenchymal tumor that is characterized by a benign histology but potentially aggressive clinical behavior, with a high rate of recurrence and metastasis. It primarily occurs in young adults in the extremities, inguinal area, neck, or chest wall. There are rare reports of intracranial LGFMS in adults. In this report, the authors present the case of a 5-year-old girl who presented with a rapidly enlarging frontal scalp mass. Pathological examination of the resected mass demonstrated LGFMS. To the authors' knowledge, this is the only reported case of intracranial LGFMS in a child.

Aggressive Clinical Behavior

Neuroendocrine differentiation in prostatic carcinomas generally confers a more aggressive clinical behavior and less favorable prognosis than usual prostatic carcinomas. In this manuscript, we report a case of a 58-year-old man with prostatic carcinoma who died 1 year after initial diagnosis. Autopsy showed a disseminated prostatic carcinoma with neuroendocrine differentiation. There were metastasis to the spleen, an organ infrequently involved by disseminated epithelial neoplasms. Neuroendocrine differentiation was demonstrated by immunohistochemical studies in the biopsy and autopsy material.

Aggressive Clinical Behavior

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary non hematopoietic malignant tumor of bone with a strict histologic definition: the presence of unequivocal osteoid produced by neoplastic cells. Rare variants displaying low-grade histological features have been described; among which chondromyxoid fibroma-like (CMF-OS) is the rarest. However, despite its bland morphology; CMF-like OS has an aggressive clinical behavior and a poor prognosis. To the best of our knowledge, only 3 cases of CMF-OS have been previously reported in children. Because of its atypicality and scarcity; misdiagnosis is more likely to occur. Herein we describe a new case of CMF-OS in a 13 years old girl with fatal outcome. Diagnosis was based on focal malignant bone formation and correlation with imaging studies. The aim of the present case presentation is to raise awareness of this rare entity and to highlight the challenging diagnosis

AbstractFibrosarcomas are malignant tumors of the connective tissue, which are characterized by proliferation of fibroblasts. Most of these tumors are localized subcutaneously and cause different symptoms depending on their location. The case report describes a dermal tumor on the outside of the pinna in a 7-year-old female Cashmere goat. The tumor was surgically removed and histopathological examination revealed a low grade fibrosarcoma. Although tumors are rare in ruminants because of the animals’ short lifespan (age of slaughtering in most cases < 24 months) in modern production processes, they should be considered as a differential diagnosis.
