Infantile hepatic haemangioendothelioma resection in a newborn: A case report and literature review

Infantile hepatic haemangioendothelioma (IHH) is the most common benign hepatic tumour in infants. However, experience of managing IHH is lacking and treatments for symptomatic IHH are controversial. Here we report the case of a patient with IHH treated by liver resection. A liver mass was found in a newborn by prenatal ultrasonography. The patient presented with abdominal distention with a tangible mass. Further imaging diagnosis and biopsy were carried out and complete surgical resection of the mass was performed. Histological examination confirmed IHH. The patient recovered uneventfully after surgery, with no additional therapy after discharge and no recurrence during follow-up. We also summarise previously published resected cases of IHH and review the surgical outcomes. Surgical resection and liver transplantation appear to be effective treatments for symptomatic IHH.

Abstract Neuroendocrine tumors in the mediastinum are relatively rare. We report a patient with mediastinal neuroendocrine tumor that was successfully resected after descending stage by drug-eluting embolic transcatheter arterial chemoembolization had been performed. No tumor recurrence was found in the 1-year follow-up after surgical resection.

Abstract Background Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare soft tissue tumor originating from mesenchyme. Two cases of SFT we report right now occurred in the splenic vein and liver respectively, this primary splenic vein SFT may be the first report case, and also the first report of liver recurrence SFT cured by orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Case presentation One case was a 37-year-old female patient whose primary tumor site was located in the splenic vein, which resulted in splenomegaly and hypersplenism; its recurrence again and again after surgical resection and eventually transferred to the liver, during 10 years of follow-up, 4 operations were performed, and he is in a good condition right now. The second case was a 54-year-old male patient whose primary tumor site was located in the liver, spleen and left side of the chest wall; however, he had no uncomfortable symptoms. Surgeons performed two operations to remove these tumors, totally. 6 years later, SFT recurrence in the liver, and given that the tumor was so large that it could not be completely surgical resected, we chose orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), and no tumor recurrence during 12-month follow-up. Conclusion The reports of these two cases of SFT are very rare, especially the splenic vein SFT, which expand the understanding of SFT. The main treatment of SFT is still surgical resection, right now, and liver transplantation may be a new option treatment for the huge liver SFT.

Primary cardiac tumors (PCT) are rare with high mortality rate and low survival. There are several treatment approaches in the PCT management. Complete surgical resection is the main base of treatment and there is disagreement on adjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy after surgical resection. In this case report, complete remission of the relapsed non-metastatic cardiac synovial sarcoma was observed after salvage chemotherapy and complete surgical resection.

Purpose: To report an unusual case of frontal sinus keratocyst. Case Report: A 31 year old woman presented with a history of swollen right eye and visual field impairment. The ophthalmological examination revealed right superior eyelid edema and some degrees of proptosis. CT scan with iodine injection evidenced the opacification of the right frontal sinus with superior orbital wall lysis. Complete endoscopic surgical resection of a mass containing foul smelling keratin material was performed via Draf type III. The patient became symptomatic after 6 years. Imaging studies showed neo- osteogenesis in the far lateral end of right frontal sinus. Frontal trephination was done and the remnant of keratocyst was removed and the septum interfacing the cell and the right frontal sinus was walled down entirely. Conclusion: Although frontal sinus keratocyst is benign but can spread to the surrounding structures leading to several complications. Therefore, complete surgical resection is necessary to avoid recurrence.

Nine cases of colorectal plasmacytomas diagnosed between 1998 and 2001 were reviewed. Treatment consisted of complete surgical resection when possible. Two dogs had multiple plasmacytomas. Two dogs had local recurrence of the tumor at 5 and 8 months after resection. Two dogs were alive at 20 and 23 months with no recurrences at the time of follow-up. The median survival time was 15 months (range 5 to 33 months). Colorectal plasmacytomas are similar to mucocutaneous plasmacytomas, in that they tend to progress slowly and do not recur with complete excision.
