Contralateral Carcinoma

Bilateral breast cancers are rare cases encountered and are usually the same type in both sides. Only very few cases were reported to have different histological types of neoplasia involving sarcoma. Moreover, sarcomas rarely originate from the breast as a primary lesion whereas the common presentation is having angiosarcoma following radiotherapy. In this report, we present a rare case of a Syrian 43-year-old woman having two distinct primary lesions in the breasts: invasive ductal carcinoma and contralateral stromal sarcoma.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma is the most common thyroid malignancy, accounting for 80% of all thyroid cancers. The most common presentation of thyroid cancer is an asymptomatic thyroid mass or a nodule. Usually as thyroid enlarges, it extends in to mediastinum. Papillary thyroid carcinoma presentation as multiple true cystic swelling extending from neck to anterior chest wall in subcutaneous plane is not present in the literature. We present a rare case of cystic papillary thyroid carcinoma which is presented as subcutaneous swelling with sinus formation.

Superficial Tumor

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a rare superficial tumor characterized by high rates of local recurrence and low risk of metastasis. Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans occurs most commonly on the trunk and proximal extremities, it affects all races, and often develops between the second and the fifth decade of life. The tumor grows slowly, typically over years.We present a rare case of a young male patient, 21 years old, with an asymptomatic calf tumor which was suspected to be an angioma, but after the initial excision histology and imunohistochemistry proved to be a Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans without safety limits. After 2 weeks, we excised the remaining scar with 4 cm tissue limit and the defect was covered using an adipofascial reversed sural flap from the posterior part of the left calf and after another 2 weeks we applied a skin graft from the thigh.The patient had a good evolution, with full recovery, without local recurrences or metastasis, and the histology was within good safety limits.
