Primordial odontogenic tumor (POT) is a recently designated benign mixed epithelial and mesenchymal odontogenic tumor and only sixteen cases have been reported worldwide till now. Here we report an another case of POT in a 14–year old boy who presented with an asymptomatic buccal enlargement in the right maxillary region for past 4–5 months. A well-defined, unilocular, radiolucent lesion with impacted teeth was observed radiographically. A detailed account of clinico-radiographical and histolological differential diagnoses along with an updated literature review has been presented.

ABSTRACT Introduction Leiomyoma arising from the vagina is a rare entity with varied presentations. Case Report A woman 44 years of age presented with complaints of something coming out vaginally, polymenorrhea, and pain in abdomen. A mass arising from the right posterolateral wall of vagina was seen. Ultrasound reported it to be cervical fibroid. The mass was enucleated through vaginal route. Histopathology confirmed it to be a leiomyoma. Review of literature revealed that it has a varied presentation. Diagnosis is often missed. Conclusion The condition should always be kept in mind whenever coming across any mass in vagina. How to cite this article Gupta M, Saini V, Jindal R, Kumari S, Nargotra N.

Spigelian hernia is rare and accounts for less than 0.1% of abdominal wall hernias. It is often diagnosed at the complication stage. Authors report the case of a 48-year-old obese patient who had a painful swelling of the right iliac fossa. Morphological examination data were in favour of a strangled spigelian hernia and surgical exploration had shown a hernial sac with epiploic contents with a narrow collar. It was performed a resection of the retracted epiploon with simple raphy. The postoperative course was uneventful. Diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties are discussed through a literature review.

The unilocular radiolucencies, with its wide range of possible diagnosis, remain the topic of much debate and interest for clinicians. These lesions cannot be diagnosed solely based on radiographic appearance, but should be based on clinical, radiological and histopathological features. Due to high probability of misdiagnosis of this entity, a sound knowledge of various unilocular radiolucencies, adequate use of diagnostic aids and careful observation is important to provide proper diagnosis and treatment. Here, we present a case of a unilocular lesion in the right anterior maxilla with two impacted teeth.


We report a very rare case of squamous cell cancer of the right foot which had metastasize to the ipsilateral popliteal lymph node after initial diagnosis and treatment for the loco-regional disease.

Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare medical disorder, which is most often found in the immediate postpartum period. OVT is rarely considered idiopathic. We report a case of idiopathic OVT with pulmonary embolism in a 33-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain. Computed tomography and postoperative pathology confirmed the diagnosis of idiopathic OVT. To date, only 12 cases of idiopathic OVT have been reported. In this case report, we present a summary of these cases and a review of literature regarding management of idiopathic OVT.

Abstract Introduction/Objective Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an uncommon benign odontogenic tumor representing 3 to 7% of all odontogenic tumors. This tumor was first reported as adeno-ameloblastoma by Bernier and Tiecke in 1950 as it was initially assumed to be a type of ameloblastoma. In 1969, Philipsen and Bern proposed the term adenomatoid odontogenic tumor which was subsequently adopted by WHO and became the accepted terminology for this tumor. AOT is classified as a tumor of odontogenic epithelium but occasionally abnormal hard tissues consistent with dentinoid material may also be present as part of the tumor. AOT tends to occur in younger patients and 50% of the cases are diagnosed in teenagers. It occurs twice as commonly in females and frequently involves the anterior maxilla. Radiographically, AOT can appear as a radiolucent or mixed lucent-opaque lesion and may be associated with an impacted tooth. Methods/Case Report We report two unusually large expansile lesions of AOT that presented in the mandible. In the first case, the tumor presented as an expansile radiolucent lesion involving the right posterior mandible in a 32 year old female. In the second case, the tumor presented as an expansile mixed lucent-opaque lesion involving the left anterior mandible in a 21 year old female. The clinical presentation, radiographic and imaging findings, histopathologic features and treatment of these two cases will be discussed. The recommended treatment for AOT is surgical excision. The prognosis is good as this tumor seldom recurs after excision. Results (if a Case Study enter NA) NA Conclusion AOT is considered to be a non-aggressive, non-invasive and slow growing benign neoplasm. It is usually discovered on routine radiographic examination as the lesion is usually small and asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis but occasional cases that are larger in size have been reported in the literature.
