Characteristic Features

The purpose of this article is to present a rare case of localized, solitary amyloid tumor of tongue base and emphasize some of the characteristic features of challenging clinical and histopathologic diagnosis. In this paper, we focused on the clinical and pathological specifications of this rare tumor, so any unnecessary examinations or measures may be spared. Negative staining of amyloid material with AAC and osseous metaplasia noted in the histopathologic examination may not be thought as definite criteria for localized amyloidosis, but a supporter of localized, solitary amyloid tumor diagnosis.

Characteristic Features

<p class="abstract">Erythema elevatum diutinum (EED) is a rare form of leukocytoclastic vasculitis with an unclear pathogenesis. Almost 250 cases of EED have been reported in the literature, associated with several diseases and presented with various clinical features. Term 'diutinum' means chronic, describes one of the main characteristic features. The duration is very long, varying between one to more than 39 years. We report a rare presentation of EED in a 58-years-old man who presented with extensive and symmetrical, persistent, erythematous to violaceous   plaques over trunk and limbs and popular-nodular lesions present over pinna and dorsum of hands with burning sensation and itching over few lesions, in association with IgA monoclonal gammopathy.</p>

Tomography Reconstruction

Thoracic spinal psammomatous meningioma is a rare subtype of meningioma. Amongdiverse types of mesenchymal differentiation, osseous metaplasia is found to be stillrarer. We are presenting a new case of thoracic psammomatous spinal meningiomawith osseous metaplasia in a middle aged female which that gives a sense of cancellousbone in the spinal canal. To conclude, meningiomas with osseous metaplasia are veryrare tumors that complicate the surgical removal in certain cases. Ossification, ifpredicted prior to operation with computed tomography reconstruction, makes planningof removal easier. In our case, maintained cerebrospinal fluid spaces despite firmconsistency of tumor made its removal easier once cerebrospinal fluid was drained.We have submitted this article because it is very rare and curable pathology andpreoperative diagnosis helps in prevention of neurological injury during its excision Bang.

In this case report we describe the development in the cerebellopontine angle of a very rare tumor, ceruminous adenoma. In the few cases described in the literature this tumor occurred in the external acoustic meatus. In four cases it developed in the cerebellopontine angle by infiltration of the petrous bone or by subcutaneous spread. In the present case no connection was found between the cerebellopontine angle and the external acoustic meatus. The most likely pathogenetic hypothesis in this case is that of a tumor of dysembryogenetic origin.

Abstract Tailgut cyst is a rare tumor originating from the embryonic remnant located in the retrorectal space. The diagnosis is usually incidental duse to the absence of symptoms. When present, they are nonspecific, such as abdominal pain, dysuria and tenesmus. Imaging tests are a great help in the diagnosis and surgical planning. The standard treatment is resection, which the surgeon must perform to avoid future complications, such as malignancy. We present a case of tailgut cyst in a young patient with prior pilonidal cyst excision, subsequently submitted to surgical resection, to share our experience with a rare case, with few reports in the literature.

Unusual Case Report

Odontomas are the most common odontogenic tumors. They are broadly classified in to Compound Odontoma and Complex Odontoma. Among them complex odontoma is a rare tumor. Occasionally this tumor becomes large, causing expansion of bone followed by facial asymmetry. Otherwise these tumors are asymptomatic and are generally diagnosed on radiographic examination. We report a rare case of complex odontoma of mandible in a young boy. The tumor was treated by surgical excision under general anesthesia.

ABSTRACT Schwannoma is an extremely rare tumor of auricle. We are presenting a rare case of auricular schwannoma, perhaps the fifth in world literature, with traumatic etiology. Twenty-five years old female presented with swelling left pinna since 6 years following ear piercing. She desires surgery for cosmetic reasons only. Swelling was excised under local anesthesia and sent for histopathological examination. HPE report was suggestive of nerve sheath tumor. No recurrence has reported so far in followup of 9 months period.

Myeloid Sarcoma is a rare tumor composed of myeloblasts occurring at an extramedullary site like bones, or various soft tissues. Myeloid sarcoma may involve the gastrointestinal tract very rarely either solitarily, or occurring simultaneously with acute myeloid leukemia. Its diagnosis is challenging and needs biopsy and immunohistochemical staining. We are describing a case of myeloid sarcoma which presented as a painful anal ulcer mimicking an atypical fissure. Its appearance resembled crohn’s disease on sigmoidoscopy. A biopsy of the ulcer along with histochemical staining led to the diagnosis of myeloid sarcoma. Our case demonstrates the need for aggressive evaluation of any common gastrointestinal complaint with an atypical presentation.

Compound Odontoma

Eruption of tooth into extraosseous locations is an extremely rare condition. We report a case of a six-year-old girl child with tooth-like structure erupting from the right buccal mucosa. Clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic examination suggested the diagnosis of compound odontoma. Very few cases have been reported so far, where tooth has been located completely in the soft tissue and a variety of names have been used for that condition. A brief review of the literature and the ambiguity in naming the situation is discussed.
