Ganglion cysts are benign cystic masses that occur in association with musculoskeletal structures. The aetiology of ganglion cysts is controversial; however, it is generally thought to result from myxoid degeneration of connective tissue associated with joint capsules or tendon sheaths, to which the lesions are usually attached. They may occur in any part of the extremities within muscles, menisci, tendons or bones. Hereby, we present a rare case of intra-tendinous location of a ganglion cyst of the semimembranosus tendon occurring within the tendon substance itself. To date, there have only few cases reports in the literature reviewing intra-tendinous ganglion cysts occurred in the lower limbs.

A case of an intraosseous ganglion cyst 1 , 6 of the talus is described. 1 , 9 Ganglion cysts within bone are not rare but are usually found within long bones located in metaphyseal areas. 7 , 10 This lesion of the talus produced significant pain and was successfully treated with curettage and iliac crest bone graft. 3

Hydatid cyst is a parasitic disease caused by Echinococcus granulosus or Echinococcus multilocularis. Humans are accidentally infected with the parasite. The cyst is usually found in the liver and lungs and rarely occurs in other body parts. The present article describes a rare case of pelvic hydatid cyst in a young man who presented with nausea, vomiting, and right abdominal pain. Two large cystic masses were discovered during a CT scan in the patient’s pelvic region, resulting in right urinary tract hydroureteronephrosis. Additionally, the antibody index was used to confirm the presence of a primary hydatid cyst.

Papular Elastorrhexis (PE) is a connective tissue naevus that presents with non-follicular, yellow or white oval papules(1-5mm), mostly on the proximal extremities and the trunk. It is diagnosed with good clinical acumen and histologically with fragmented or decreased dermal elastic fibers. PE is difficult for clinicians to diagnose because of the rarity of the disease and non-specific presentation. Here we report a rare case of PE.

Oral focal mucinosis (OFM) is a rare soft-tissue lesion of unknown etiology. Clinically it appears as asymptomatic round lesions and histologically, characterized by focal myxoid degeneration of connective tissue with presence of stellate shaped fibroblasts which were also evident in the present case. This case report stresses on the fact that diagnosis of OFM is almost impossible hence diagnosis should be confirmed by histopathological examination following incisional or excisional biopsy. Through this article we present a rare case of one such lesion on the gingiva and enumerate the most characteristic and myxomatous lesions. Thus though rare, OFM must be considered in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue overgrowths in oral cavity. Here, we describe the clinical and histopathological   presentation and subsequent management of OFM in a female patient.

AbstractA rare case of monostotic ossifying fibroma of the dorsal spine in a postpartum woman is being described. Ossifying fibromas of the spine are very rare tumors. They are components of benign fibro-osseous lesions. We report a case of an 18-year-old woman, who presented with complaints of weakness of both the lower limbs in the immediate postpartum period and was diagnosed with ossifying fibroma of the dorsal [D3] vertebral body. The tumor was excised followed by spinal stabilization. Histopathologic findings were consistent with ossifying fibroma. Postoperative period was uneventful. Monostotic variant of ossifying fibroma in the dorsal spine is an extremely rare tumor, and its presence in the postpartum period adds on to the diagnostic dilemma. Hence this case report can be kept in mind while evaluating a case presenting with complaints of weakness of both the lower limbs in the immediate postpartum period.

Aberrant accessory muscles are rare entities in the hand. The extensor digitorum brevis manus (EDBM) muscle is amongst them and may be seen in association with dorsal ganglion cysts. Distinguishing an EDBM muscle is relevant in the diagnostic consideration of a dorsal ganglion in order to facilitate and guide its proper treatment. To date, there have been only few reports of an EDBM in association with a dorsal ganglion cyst. We report our experience with an incidental intraoperative finding of an intramuscular EDBM dorsal ganglion cyst and follow with a literature review and guide to management.
