Infantile haemangioma is a relatively common benign tumour which often does not require treatment. We present a case of a segmental infantile haemangioma with periocular involvement impacting on early visual development which was successfully treated with topical timolol maleate 0.5% drops in the developing world.

We are reporting a case of tuberculosis within warthin tumour of left parotid area in a 72 years old male with findings of benign tumour with acute and chronic inflammation on FNA (Fine Needle Aspiration). Warthin tumour is a benign tumours of the salivary gland particularly parotid region. It is the second most common benign tumour. In addition the tuberculosis in a parotid gland is very rare. Further having tuberculosis within warthin tumour is quite rare.1 To best of our knowledge there is the only few cases which are being reported.

Common Benign Tumour

Breast fibroadenomas are a common benign tumour in women that may need to be surgically excised. A mammary-like fibroadenoma can exceptionally be found in the pathological report after an anal polyp removal. A 60-year-old woman presented with huge anal polyp of 25 mm. It was surgically removed transanally. Histologic examination revealed a breast fibroadenoma pattern with glandular structures. Proctologist specialists must be aware that mammary-like tumours are a possible differential diagnosis for anal masses despite their rarity in the literature.

AbstractLipomata are the most common benign tumour of the head and neck. They may undergo a variety of changes, one of which is ossification which, although rarely seen, has a characteristic radiographic appearance. We present a case of a retropharyngeal lipoma which demonstrates ossification and discuss the features which differentiate this from an osseous lipoma. Current theories on the aetiology of lipomata and their ossification are reviewed.

Common Benign Tumour

Fibrous xanthomas* of the digital tendon sheath system are a common benign tumour. The varying recurrence rates cited in the literature have usually been attributed to inadequate surgical excision. However, Boyes (1964) has suggested “seeding” as a possible mechanism to explain persistence of the tumour. Our case of multiple fibrous xanthomas at different levels in a single digital sheath system is presented as an example of “seeding” along the tendon sheath.

Objective: To report the distribution of oral and maxillofacial pathologies diagnosed histologically in laboratory. Methods: The retrospective descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Rehman Medical Institute, Peshawar, Pakistan, and comprised biopsied lesions submitted to the institutional laboratory from 2010 to 2019. Data on gender, age, site of the lesion and histopathological diagnosis was retrieved from the records. Data was analysed using Microsoft Excel. Results: Of the 986 histologically confirmed cases, 545(55.27%) related to males and 441(44.72%) to females. The overall mean age of the patients was 43.20+19.85. Tongue was the most affected site 159(16.1%). The most common diagnostic category was malignant tumours 338(34%), followed by salivary gland pathology 162(16%), and cysts and odontogenic tumours 138(14%). The most common histopathological finding was oral squamous cell carcinoma 249(25.2%), and pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign tumour 103(10.4%). Conclusion: Oral squamous cell carcinoma was the most common malignancy, while pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign tumour. Key Words: Oral and maxillofacial lesions, Prevalence, Histopathology, Benign lesions, Malignant lesions.

Over Time

We describe a case of compressive vertebral angioma characterized by unexpected onset and the rapid development of signs of spinal medulla compression not preceded by painful symptomatology. Haemangioma is the most common benign tumour in the spine. In the vast majority of cases it is a small, clearly located and circumscribed vascular dysplasia which is stable over time, asymptomatic and is detected by chance via radiological control. In rare cases vertebral angioma with tumoral behaviour can have an extensive effect on the vertebral body and arch and invade the spinal canal causing myeloradicular compression. This type of angioma, defined as compressive, is a developing lesion which necessitates full radiological assessment and decompression therapy, to be carried out in certain cases and in our case, as part of an emergency regimen. Between the two extreme forms of angioma, compressive and asymptomatic, there are the painful or symptomatic forms classified as both compressive in the transitional phase and as lesions of intermediate aggressiveness which are not destined to develop further.

Common Benign Tumour

AbstractBenign tracheal tumours are uncommon in adults and rare in children. According to several extensive reviews, fibromas are the second most common benign tumour to occur in the trachea. (Gilbert et al., 1949, 1953).In our review of the literature, 197 adult cases of fibromas have been reported and 23 in children. However only one previous report of a congenital subglottic fibroma exists. (Tsui and Lore 1975). No previous case with a late onset vocal cord palsy has been reported.
