Abstract Background Crossed fused renal ectopia is a rare congenital anomaly where both the kidneys are fused and situated on one side and drain bilaterally into the urinary bladder. Rarely crossed fused ectopia can present with a single ureter draining ipsilaterally into the bladder, but here we are presenting for the first time a rare case of right crossed fused ectopia, where a solitary ureter crosses midline and drains contralaterally into the bladder. Case presentation A 19-year-old adolescent male patient presented with intermittent chronic right flank pain for 3 months. General physical and per abdominal examinations were normal. Computerized tomography (CT) urography showed right side crossed fused ectopic kidneys with a solitary ureter draining both the kidneys and opening into the left side of the urinary bladder. The patient was managed conservatively and is on regular follow-up. Conclusion Crossed complete renal fused ectopia with solitary contralateral ureteral is a rare case. Individualized case-based management is needed depending upon the symptoms, associated anomalies, and pathology. Reporting of all rare congenital cases will help in the future understanding and management of these conditions.

Abstract Background Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by mucocutaneous pigmentation and hamartomatous polyps in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). There have also been cases of extra GIT polyps such as the renal pelvis, urinary bladder, lungs and nares. Bladder hamartoma is an extremely rare finding, with only 12 cases described in the literature up to now. The rarity of the condition necessitates a comprehensive compilation of managements up to now so as to provide a better tool for the treatment of such conditions in the future. Case presentation A twenty-year-old male, known to have Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, presented to us complaining of obstructive urinary symptoms. A urethrogram done showed a filling defect at the base of the urinary bladder. The mass was resected transurethrally, and histopathology revealed a hamartoma of the bladder. The patient has since remained tumor-free on follow-up. Conclusions Transurethral resection of the bladder mass proved to be an effective therapy in this patient with no recurrence on the patient’s follow-up till now. There is still, however, a dearth of knowledge regarding the management of bladder hamartomas owing to the extreme rarity of the case.

Rare Case Report

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTMs) are ubiquitous and are being increasingly reported as human opportunistic infection. Cutaneous infection caused by mixed NTM is extremely rare. We encountered the case of a 46-year-old female, who presented with multiple discharging sinuses over the lower anterior abdominal wall (over a previous appendectomy scar) for the past 2 years. Microscopy and culture of the pus discharge were done to isolate and identify the etiological agent. Finally, GenoType Mycobacterium CM/AS assay proved it to be a mixed infection caused byMycobacterium szulgaiandM. intermedium. The patient was advised a combination of rifampicin 600 mg once daily, ethambutol 600 mg once daily, and clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily to be taken along with periodic follow-up based upon clinical response as well as microbiological response. We emphasize that infections by NTM must be considered in the etiology of nonhealing wounds or sinuses, especially at postsurgical sites.

Rare Case Report

Chorea gravidarum is the term given to chorea occurring during pregnancy. Here, we report a case of 24 year old primigravida at gestational age 38 weeks 3days ,without any signicant past & family history who presented with chorea gravidarum for the rst time in third trimester. On detailed evaluation no etiology was identied. On follow up in postpartum period, her choreiform movements have reduced in intensity, but is still persisting pointing towards an idiopathic origin.

Rare Case Report

Primary maxillofacial chordoma is extremely rare. We herein report a very rare case of a recurrent maxillofacial chordate tumor that was diagnosed in a 56-year-old woman who underwent three tumor resections. After surgical treatment, the patient healed well with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score of 1. She was discharged to a local hospital for adjuvant radiotherapy. Close follow-up was ongoing at the time of this writing. Radical surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy remain the main treatment strategies for chordoma. Postoperative radiotherapy is particularly important. Our experience is to administer a total dose of 50 Gy to a clearly delineated target. If appropriate comprehensive treatment is available, distant metastasis of primary chordoma is rare, and neck dissection is therefore not generally recommended. Neck lymph node dissection is generally not recommended.

ABSTRACT Fibroosseous lesions of the jaws, including juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF), pose diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties due to their clinical, radiological, and histological variability. There are two histological varieties of it, one as psammomatoid type and second as trebacular type; here, we present a trebacular type, which is a rare variety. After the clinical examination, radiological and histological analysis, it was diagnosed as juvenile trebacular ossifying fibroma. Although JOF is an uncommon clinical entity, its aggressive local behavior and high recurrence rate means that it is important to make an early diagnosis, apply the appropriate treatment, and, especially, follow-up the patient over the long term.

Congenital heart diseases are common cause of congenital cyanosis with polycythaemia. Congenital methemoglobinemia is a rare cause of lifelong cyanosis with polycythemia. Congenital methemoglobinemia is caused either by enzyme deficiency or by an abnormal Hb (Hb M). Asymptomatic despite presence of severe cyanosis indicates this rare disorder. We are reporting a rare case of polycythemia with cyanosis due to congenital methemoglobinemia. The patient was referred to our centre and attended Hematology OPD (out-patient department) when his routine CBC revealed erythrocytosis. At that time, we found him severely cyanosed especially apparent on lips, tongue, hands and feet. He was diagnosed as a case of congenital methemoglobinemia with 38% blood methemoglobin level (normal value-0.00-2.00%). On view of life long persistent cyanosis, without any cardiopulmonary and neurological abnormality, consanguinity of parent’s marriage, dark colored blood with high methemoglobin level, a final diagnosis of Type I enzyme deficiency congenital methemoglobinemia was made. He was treated with oral ascorbic acid 250 mg twice daily. At follow up after 6 months his skin color improved and RBC count returned to normal. We are reporting this case of congenital methemoglobinemia for the first time in Bangladesh to emphasize the importance of this rare entity in the differential diagnosis of asymptomatic cyanosis with polycythemia.

Lipomas are benign tumours of mesenchymal origin (mature adipocytes) that are comparatively uncommon in the oral cavity corresponding to less than 4.4% of all benign oral soft tissue tumors. Clinically, they present as slow growing, soft, asymptomatic masses. Histopathologically, they appear as thinly encapsulated lesion composed of mature adipocytes with inconspicuous vascularity. The pathogenetic mechanisms of oral lipomas are still unclear. They are usually treated by surgical excision and bear excellent prognosis. Here we report a case of intraoral lipoma in 54 year old male patient in the left lower lingual alveolar mucosal region that was treated by surgical excision using electrocautery without any postsurgical complication. One-year follow-up showed no evidence of recurrence.

Rare Case Report

Primary breast neoplasms are rare in adolescent females, most of which are benign. Phyllodes tumors constitute a remarkably small subset of breast neoplasms (0.3-0.9%) with malignant phyllodes tumors being even more uncommon. Malignant phyllodes tumors tend to progress rapidly though only 1.5% metastasize. They are also associated with a higher rate of recurrence than their benign counterparts, underlying the importance of adequate surgical margins. It is therefore imperative to be able to identify these tumors early allowing for prompt resection and close follow-up. Here, we present the rare case of a 17-year-old female presenting with a rapidly enlarging breast mass, which was ultimately found to be a malignant phyllodes tumor. We further performed a review of the literature to highlight only 22 other cases reported in adolescent females.
