Primary lung adenocarcinomas are rare in pediatric patients, and even rarer in patients without precedent malignancy or congenital malformation. Here we present the first reported case of primary lung cribriform adenocarcinoma with squamoid morules in a previously healthy adolescent female. Molecular testing identified CTNNB1 mutation in the tumor and excluded other common mutations in lung adenocarcinoma. Our case suggests molecular alterations to the same signaling pathway can lead to similar histomorphology regardless of the tissue of origin.

Primary peritonitis, a bacterial infection within the peritoneal cavity that arises in the absence of an intraperitoneal source, is a rare entity in paediatrics. We describe the case of a previously healthy 11-year-old girl who presented with an acute abdomen and was found to have primary peritonitis due to Streptococcus pyogenes. She had an episode of pharyngitis with pharyngeal cultures positive for S. pyogenes in the month prior to presentation. We performed a review of the literature to better elucidate the risk factors, pathophysiology and presentation of peritonitis due to S. pyogenes and to draw attention to the potential association between group A streptococcal pharyngitis and peritonitis.
