<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>

A 19-year-old female presented to ENT OPD of Dhulikhel Hospital, Kathmandu University Hospital, with history of foreign body sensation in throat for 2 weeks and mass in left tonsil for 1 week. There is no history of difficulty swallowing or recurrent throat infection. Physical examination revealed a pedunculated mass arising from upper pole of left tonsil. Bilateral tonsillectomy was done under general anaesthesia. Grossly, 2.5 × 1.5 × 1 cm polypoidal mass, soft in consistency, was found to be attached to left tonsil. Histopathology report was consistent with lymphangiomatous polyp of tonsil.

AbstractGiant polypoidal hamartomas of the pharynx and oesophagus are rare benign tumours of unknown origin, exceptionally arising from the oropharynx. We report the case of a 74-year-old man who developed sudden nausea and a foreign body sensation. Shortly afterwards he regurgitated a 25 × 3 × 1.5 cm pedunculated fleshy mass, still attached to the inside of his throat. The patient was anaesthetised, the mass traced to the right tonsillar fossa and adjacent oropharyngeal wall. The pedicle was clamped and the lesion excised. Histology was consistent with a giant oropharyngeal hamartoma. We discuss the pathogenesis and potential complications of this condition. The literature is reviewed.

AbstractPain in the neck, radiating towards the ear, together with a foreign body sensation in the throat is a common complaint. A less common finding upon physical examination is an elongated styloid process, palpable in the tonsillar fossa and provoking the symptoms for which the patient is seeking medical advice. The diagnosis of this so-called Eagle's sundrome is described and the case history and treatment of four patients are presented.

All manner of foreign bodies have been extracted from the bladder. Introduction into the bladder may be through self-insertion, iatrogenic means or migration from adjacent organs. Extraction should be tailored according to the nature of the foreign body and should minimise bladder and urethral trauma. We report a case of a bullet injury to the bladder, which finally presented as a gross hematuria after remaining asymptomatic for four years. We present here an alternative to suprapubic cystostomy with a large bladder foreign body treated via a combined transurethral unroofing followed by removal using a grasper passed through a suprapubic laparoscopic port.
