Psammomatoid Ossifying Fibroma

Juvenile Psammomatoid Ossifying Fibromais a rare fibro-osseous tumor seen in children and adolescentand mostly arising from the cranio-facial bone.We report a case of 18-year-old boy who presented with diplopiaand progressive right fronto-orbital swelling. On plain radiograph and CT, it was diagnosed as fibrous dysplasiaand mucocele as differential diagnosis. The tumor was resected and histopathological examination showed psammomatoid features. Therefore, the diagnosis of Juvenile Psammomatoid Ossifying Fibroma must be based on both radiological and histopathological findings.

AbstractBackground:Dermoid cysts in the floor of the mouth are relatively uncommon developmental lesions. They are thought to arise in the midline and along the lines of embryonic fusion of the facial processes containing ectodermal tissue.Case report:A 17-year-old female presented with a 3-month history of a growing, progressive swelling in the mouth floor. Clinical examination revealed a rather large symmetrical, soft swelling in the mouth floor, displacing the tongue superiorly. The fast growing nature and size of the lesion raised suspicion of potential compromise to the airway. Surgical excision was therefore performed.Conclusion:Differential diagnosis of cystic lesions in the floor of the mouth is of paramount importance, as the recommended surgical techniques vary depending on the anatomical position of the lesions. The intraoral approach is preferred for those lesions that do not extend beyond the mylohyoid muscle boundaries; this leads to a satisfactory cosmetic and functional outcome.

History Of

Cystic fibrohistiocytic tumour of the lung is a very rare pathological entity that occurs either as a primary pulmonary neoplasm or as a metastasis from skin lesions called cellular fibrous histiocytomas. Herein, we present the case of a 19-year old man with a history of recurrent pneumothoraces who was managed surgically and was eventually diagnosed with cystic fibrohistiocytic tumour of the lung. Clinicians should include this disease in the differential diagnosis of pulmonary cystic lesions and be aware of its association with cellular fibrous histiocytoma. Reporting of more cases is warranted to further elucidate the natural course of the disease and optimise its management.

The clinical and radiographic dilemma of fibrous dysplasia versus osteomyelitis is highlighted in this case of a 4-year-old girl with a bony hard swelling over the angle of the mandible. Differences between histopathological appearance and radiographic presentation with the possible differential diagnosis were discussed and compared with previous studies.

Tumors Of The Liver

Primary signet ring neuroendocrine tumors of the liver are extremely rare tumors. Morphologically, they mimic signet ring cell adenocarcinomas; however, the absence of mucin by special stains and the expression of neuroendocrine markers help to diagnose these tumors. We herein report a case of a 47-year-old female who presented with multiple solid and cystic lesions in both liver lobes, which were initially suggested to be biliary cystadenocarcinoma on imaging. Liver biopsy of the lesion revealed the presence of a signet ring neoplasm with diffuse expression of synaptophysin and pan-cytokeratin. The case was subsequently diagnosed as a primary hepatic signet ring neuroendocrine tumor. The patient was offered 3 cycles of chemotherapy and is well preserved after 14 months of diagnosis. Although this is an extremely rare entity, its possibility should be considered in the differential diagnosis of neoplasms characterized by signet ring cell morphology.

Cystic lesions of the adrenal gland are usually rare, seen in 1/5750 to 1/250,000 of the population. They may be true cysts, infectious cysts, malignancies with cystic degeneration, or pseudocysts. Adrenal cysts are rare in the differential diagnosis of Retroperitoneal Cysts (RPC) and may be treated. They can be correctly identified through pathological testing. Here, the author presents a case of giant adrenal cyst in a young 38-year-old female.

The authors report the case of a 37 year-old man with a solitary cysticercus cyst in the brainstem (pons) successfully removed through a suboccipital craniectomy. Surgery in neurocysticercosis has been indicated in patients with hydrocephalus and/or large cystic lesions. Cystic lesions in the brainstem and spinal cord may have indication for surgery for two reasons: (1) diagnosis; and (2) treatment. Aspects related to differential diagnosis and therapeutic alternatives are discussed.

Mediastinal Extension

Lymphangioma is an infrequent benign tumour that is formed usually from a congenital malformation of the lymphatic ducts causing lymphangiectasis. The abdominal location represents 1-5%, with dominance in the mesentery and retroperitoneum, however, the pancreatic location is very rare having described less than 100 cases published worldwide. The clinical symptoms of the lymphangiomas are non-specific and depend of the tumour’s size and location. Here we present a clinical case of a pancreatic lymphangioma with mediastinal extension who was treated with a complete resection and this case shows that the diagnosis of cystic pancreatic lymphangioma must be taken as a differential diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions.
