A 60-year-old woman presented with a swelling in right paraumbilical region of one-year duration. Examination revealed a painless cystic swelling 15 × 10 cm with cough impulse. Ultrasound and CECT abdomen showed a subcutaneous cystic swelling with intramuscular extension. No other intraabdominal cystic lesions were found. Surgical exploration showed a cystic lesion adherent to peritoneum without any intraperitoneal extension. Cyst was carefully excised without any spillage. Gross specimen on opening showed multiple daughter cysts consistent with hydatid cyst, confirming the diagnosis of solitary abdominal wall hydatid cyst.

Osteoma is a benign, slowly growing, asymptomatic, bone-forming tumor arising from cancellous or compact bone. Osteoma usually is a solitary lesion, but in patients with Gardner’s Syndrome it may be multiple. osteoma may rarely have a parosteal localization. Parosteal osteoma has peculiar radiographic, histologic and clinical features. We describe a case report of a 51- years old man with a bifocal parosteal osteoma of the femur in a non-syndromic patient. This is the first described patient with a bifocal lesion. In literature only 24 cases of paraosteal osteoma are found. Our patient underwent surgery and the lesions were fully excised. At one year follow-up there was no evidence of recurrence.

We present the case of a 63 year-old male who presented with a cystic lesion of the distal pancreas. Excision and histology showed this to be a lymphoepithelial cyst. Cystic lesions of the pancreas represent a diagnostic challenge, especially when pseudocyst secondary to pancreatitis is excluded. These lesions can be broadly classified into benign, pre-malignant and malignant. Widely used imaging modalities such as CT and MRI are not able to categorically differentiate between these. More invasive procedures such as endoscopic US and FNA again do not give a cast-iron diagnosis. Our patient had a symptomatic cystic lesion in his pancreas which was excised after cross-specialty discussion. We advocate that this is the ideal way to treat patients with cystic lesions of the pancreas, with each case considered on its own merits as all current diagnostic investigations have their limitations.

<p class="abstract">We had a sixty years old male patient, who had one year history of foreign body sensation in throat and the history of odynophagia for the last ten days. The NCCT neck showed 3.08×2.28 cm homogenous calcified mass in left tonsillar fossa. The stone was removed and tonsillectomy was performed. Giant tonsillolith is a rare clinical entity. As per available literature, 54 cases of giant tonsilloliths have been reported and to the best of our knowledge, this is one of the largest tonsillolith in the world till date. </p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Tonsillolith, Oral cavity<strong></strong>
