AbstractScrotal calcinosis is a benign disease characterized by multiple calcified scrotal nodules. The nodules develop slowly over many years and patients usually do not seek for treatment, until they grow to large size. Histopathological examination shows deposition of basophilic amorphous material surrounded by giant cell granulomatous reaction. We report two cases of scrotal calcinosis occurring in 27 year and 45 year old males who presented with multiple scrotal swellings. Clinical diagnosis was multiple sebaceous cysts. On histopathology, excised swellings showed deposition of calcium with giant cell reaction. On regular follow up both are doing fine without any recurrence.

Abstract Background Angiomyolipomas are rare mesenchymal tumours arising from the perivascular epithelioid cells consisting of variable amounts of adipose, thick-walled blood vessels and smooth muscle cells. These benign tumours commonly occur in the kidney with only a few case reports of adrenal angiomyolipomas which have the potential to reach a large size and haemorrhage. Case presentation A 45-year-old lady presented with a 3-week history of right loin pain, nausea and vomiting. A CT scan revealed a right adrenal angiomyolipoma measuring 6.3 × 6.8 cm with associated haemorrhage. The lesion was successfully treated with right open adrenalectomy, and histology confirmed the diagnosis of adrenal angiomyolipoma. The patient remained well with no evidence of recurrence at the 36-month follow-up. Conclusion Adrenal angiomyolipomas are rare benign tumours that have the ability to reach a large size and potential to bleed. Here, we report the second case of spontaneous haemorrhage in an adrenal angiomyolipoma, which was successfully treated with open adrenalectomy.

AimsTo describe a large tertiary care academic centre’s experience with patients who achieve a complete pathological response (ie, ypT0N0) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and radical cystectomy (RC) with emphasis on morphological features present in the RC and clinical outcome.Methods41 patients with ypT0N0 disease following transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT), NAC and RC with available clinical follow-up information were analysed. Slides from all RCs were reviewed to confirm pathological stage and assess for morphological parameters (eg, foreign body giant cell reaction, dystrophic calcification, scar and fat necrosis).ResultsWith median follow-up of 32.8 months, the recurrence-free survival at 1 and 5 years was 97.4% and 93.5%, while the overall survival at 3 and 5 years was 94.2% and 88.6%, respectively. No patients died of urothelial carcinoma. Stage assigned at TURBT was 1 pTa (2%), 1 pT1 (2%), 38 pT2 (93%) and 1 pT3a (2%). 17 TURBTs demonstrated variant histology, with the majority of these being squamous (65%). The most common morphological features present at RC were scar (100%), foreign body giant cell reaction (80%), chronic inflammation within lamina propria (68%) and dystrophic calcifications (39%). Other morphological features were less common or absent.ConclusionypT0N0 disease at RC portends an excellent prognosis, regardless of stage or variant histology in the TURBT; scar, foreign body giant cell reaction, chronic inflammation and dystrophic calcifications are often present.

<p class="abstract">Teratomas are embryonal neoplasm arises from totipotent germ cells. They are having tissues from all the three blastodermic layers. There are various locations of congenital teratoma. Naso-oropharyngeal site teratoma are either sessile or pedunculated. We describe a rare case of laryngeal teratoma in a five years old patient presented with change in voice and breathing difficulty. On flexible laryngoscopy, it appeared like supraglottic cyst but on CT scan it was confirmed as teratoma. Pre-operative tracheostomy and transoral carbon dioxide laser assisted excision done. Histopathological examination showed osteoid trabeculae, chondroid tissue with loose myxoid islands and adipose tissue. No recurrence of tumor on 18 months follow-up. This is the first case report of pediatric larynx teratoma reported in present century.</p>

AbstractPrimary Dirofilariasis is caused by a Zoonotic filarial nematode. It is transmitted to humans by Culex, Aedes, or Anopheles mosquitoes, which ingest blood-containing microfilaria from affected dogs, cats, or raccoons. Chest wall tumors are uncommon lesions that originate from blood vessels, nerves, bone, cartilage, or fat. We report a case of Human Dirofilariasis due to D. Repens occurring in the chest wall in a 32 year old male. Clinical diagnosis of benign chest wall tumor was considered and it was excised. Histopathological examination confirmed it as Dirofilaria repens. On regular follow up he is doing fine.

Persistent genital arousal disorder is a rare condition characterized by unwanted intrusive symptoms of sexual arousal without specific context. Their possible aetiologies and treatments are multiple and mostly based on case reports. We aim to do a comprehensive review of persistent genital arousal disorder and describe a case of a postmenopausal woman who developed this disease and, during the follow-up, was diagnosed with advanced endometrial cancer, reminding physicians to keep in mind the possibility of multiple diagnosis in the same patient, including malignancy. Although there is no description of this association in the literature, the possible aetiologies of persistent genital arousal disorder are diverse, and we sought this rare case should be disclosed.

Collecting Duct Carcinoma

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), is the most common kidney cancer, that accounts for approximately  90% of all adult renal malignancies with 30% of patients presenting with metastasis at initial diagnosis.There are several reports of metastases developing after 10-20 years even if curative nephrectomy has been made. Clear cell (60%-75%), papillary (10%-15%), chromophobe (5%), and collecting duct carcinoma are well characterized subtypes of RCC.Renal cell carcinoma mainly metastasizes to the lungs,the bones,the liver,the lymph nodes and brain.Metastasis to the head and neck region is rare.In this case report we present a tonsil metastasis after 5 years of nephrectomy.Surgery with histopathological examination confirmed that metastasis of clear cell carcinom.The patient was successfully treated by surgery and referred to oncology.Later he was out of our follow-up.

<p class="abstract">We present a rare case of a solitary laryngeal xanthoma in a 42 year old male, with complaints of hoarseness and change in voice since1 year. Direct laryngoscopic examination revealed a smooth textured polyp like mass arising from anterior 1/3rd of left vocal cord. No other similar lesions were noted anywhere else on his body. Microlaryngeal excision of mass was done and sent for histopathological examination, which showed fragments of stratified squamous epithelium with sub-epithelium displaying sheets of foamy cells. Immunohistochemistry was positive for CD68 and a diagnosis of solitary laryngeal xanthoma was arrived at. Follow up of the patient showed no recurrence but investigations revealed dyslipidemia, which was newly detected. Hence a diagnosis of a solitary laryngeal xanthoma, even without any other lesions, warrants a thorough investigative workup, including lipid profile, even in patients who are not known cases of dyslipidemia. This becomes especially important in a country like India, where a large number of cases of dyslipidemia go undetected; leading to atherosclerosis and even cardiac events in the future.</p>

Perineal Endometriosis

Perineal endometriosis is a rare entity which can be explained by direct implantation of endometriotic cells over the fresh episiotomy wound and subsequent development of scar endometriosis. Perineal scar endometriosis incidence is reported to be 0.3% to 1%. 28 years old, P1L1, presented with pain and swelling near episiotomy site which is associated with menstruation. Examination during menstruation revealed swelling was tender, erythematous and slightly increased in size. Clinical diagnosis of scar endometriosis was made after clinical examination. Mass excised and sent for histopathological examination. Although diagnosis essentially remains clinical, preoperative evaluation with perineal ultrasound and MRI was performed. Wide local excision remains treatment of choice and follow up for recurrence is recommended. Histopathological examination is obligatory to exclude rare possibility of malignant changes.

Two patients of 30-35 years of age presented in Gynecological emergency of Agartala Government Medical College at unstable condition with the diagnosis of ruptured ectopic pregnancy. Both the cases were taken for emergency laparotomy after initial resuscitation, investigations & arrangement of blood products. In both the cases rupture were found in right side and hence right sided salpingectomy done in both the cases. Both the tubes (affected) after laparotomy were sent for histopathological examination where both the reports came to be partial mole. Ectopic hydatiform mole (either complete or partial) are rare events, among these Ectopic partial moles are rarer. Both the cases were in regular follow up & ß-HCG levels came to the base level within 6-7 wks. The 1st case became pregnant after 9 months of laparotomy.
