AbstractWe report an unusual case of a pilonidal sinus appearing on the nose. From the clinical and pathological findings, we find it difficult to believe that it is an acquired condition. En bloc excision by an external rhinoplasty approach was performed with no evidence of any recurrence.

Abstract BACKGROUND We report an unusual case of a true dural aneurysm arising from the posterior meningeal artery that fed a symptomatic dural arteriovenous fistula located at the right transverse-sigmoid sinus junction. CLINICAL PRESENTATION A 29-year-old right-handed white woman presented with aneurysmal dilatation of hypertrophied posterior meningeal artery feeding a partially treated dural arteriovenous fistula. INTERVENTION The aneurysm, which measured approximately 3 mm in width and 5 mm in length, was located in the intracranial space with a thin-walled dome projecting toward the cerebellum. Its afferent and efferent vessels were identified, secured, and the lesion was excised en bloc. CONCLUSION A thorough evaluation of all diagnostic studies should be performed for patients with vascular malformations to help identify these or other unusual lesions that may aid in the risk stratification process and management plan.

Clinical And Pathological Features

ABSTRACT:The initial presentation and clinical course of this 60-year old woman suggested a diagnosis of myasthenia gravis. The subsequent development of tongue fasciculations and the lack of response to treatment made a diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) more likely despite the presence of conjugate gaze paresis and the absence of many of the typical clinical and electromyographic (EMG) findings seen in this condition. The pathological findings were consistent with either a motor neuronopathy or an unusual variant of ALS. We review the clinical and pathological features of this unusual case in this report.

Introduction: Pilonidal sinus (PNS) is any subcutaneous sinus containing hair. 97.8% of PNS are in sacrococcygeal region making it the most common site of PNS. Extrasacrococcygeal PNS accounts for approximately 2.2% of PNS. Few cases of PNS of atypical sites have been reported. The purpose of this paper is to report an unusual case of pilonidal sinus over the submandibular region. Case report: A 36 year old male patient presented with a painless swelling over left side of neck since 2 weeks which on examination had no tenderness and no local raise of temperature. Ultrasonography of neck was suggestive of abscess. Excision of the swelling was done and histopathological examination showed chronic inflammation with foreign body gaint cell reaction suggesting diagnosis of Pilonidal sinus. Conclusion: Pilonidal sinus over submandibular region is unusual and a diagnostic challenge. Total excision and primary closure was done in this case.

✓ The authors report a first case of intraoptic neurocysticercosis in a 12-year-old boy living on Reunion Island. Cysticercosis of the retrobulbar portion of the optic nerve is rare. Because of the patient's age and disturbances in both visual acuity and visual field, it was initially believed to be an optic nerve tumor. Computerized tomography scans and surgical aspects were confirmed by pathological findings. A conservative removal using en bloc orbitotomy showed good functional and aesthetic results.

Deep vein thrombosis is a common clinical condition, with well-known risk factors. An unusual case of venous leiomyoma manifesting as a deep vein thrombosis in the left femoral vein of a 55-year-old man was managed successfully at our institution with anticoagulation, en-bloc excision and reconstruction of the femoral vein with spiral vein graft.

Intussusception is a relatively common disease in pediatric age but it is uncommon in adults. We report a case of a 49-year-old male who presented with an acute jejunojejunal intussusception revealed by abdominal pain and vomiting. He underwent an en bloc resection, and pathological findings concluded to a metastasis of a pulmonary combined small cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. A subsequent CT scan revealed the primitive mass of the right lung with no evidence of secondary localization. The biopsy was difficult to perform. The patient underwent a pneumonectomy with lymph node dissection confirming the same diagnosis. He made a good recovery from the surgery, and a postoperative chemotherapy was administrated, and he is in remission until this date.
