Mesenchymal Neoplasms

Connective tissue neoplasms or soft tissue tumours as they are popularly called are mesenchymal neoplasms that affect any part of the body. They occur frequently in all organs including the head and neck region and the oral cavity is no exception. The frequency of their occurrence contributes to 15 - 20 % of all head and neck neoplasms and neoplasms of oral cavity form 1 - 4 % of the reported lesions,1,2 representing 2.2 % of all lipomas.3 In a study by Moreno SE et al. in 2016 the most frequently affected sites were the buccal mucosa followed by the lips, tongue, palate, and other areas of the oral cavity.4Here we are documenting a case occurring in the buccal mucosa.

<p class="abstract">Lipoma is a benign mesenchymal tumor with a thirteen percent incidence in head and neck region. Posterior triangle is the most common location while anterior neck lipoma is a rare one. Giant lipomas &gt;10 cm have been reported in different parts of the body but rarely in the anterior neck. Surgical excision remains the treatment of choice. We here report a case of giant anterior neck lipoma in a 50 year old male managed surgically.</p>

The Common

ABSTRACTRhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), a tumor of skeletal muscle origin, is the most common soft tissue sarcoma encountered in childhood and adolescence. The common sites of occurrence are the head and neck region, genitourinary tract, retroperitonium, and, to a lesser extent, the extremities. In the head and neck region, the most commonly affected sites are the orbit, paranasal sinuses, soft tissues of the cheek, and the neck. RMS is relatively uncommon in the oral cavity, and the involvement of the jaws is extremely rare. Here, we report a case of oral RMS in a 13-year-old child and describe the clinical, radiological, histopathological, and immunohistochemical findings. (Eur J Dent 2011;5:340-343)

Abstract Aim The purpose of this article is to describe a rare case of an epidermoid cyst in the buccal cheek region and a review of the literature. Background Dermoid and epidermoid cysts are developmental pathologies occurring in the head and neck region with an incidence ranging from 1.6% to 6.9%, and both cysts reported in less than 0.01% of all oral cavity cysts. Report A rare case of an epidermoid cyst originating from the buccal mucosa in a 38-year-old woman with a complaint of swelling and facial asymmetry in the left cheek just distal to the commissure for six months is presented in this report.

Low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma (LGMS) is a very rare, atypical myofibroblastic tumor with fibromatosis-like features with predilection mostly in head and neck region. LGMS occurs primarily in adult patients with a slight male predominance. Only few cases of LGMS affecting the larynx have been reported in literature to this date. We describe a case of low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma of the larynx in a 40-year-old male patient. The clinicopathological characteristics, immunohistochemical findings and treatment are discussed.

ABSTRACT Lipomas can be found anywhere in the body, with the majority being located in the head and neck region, as well as the back and abdomen. Lipomas are one of the most common benign, mesenchymal neoplasms. They may progress in size overtime and they may or may not be painful. They may be superficial or deep. Deep soft-tissue lipomas of the hand are rare. Among them, thenar intramuscular lipomas are very rare. We are reporting case of thenar intramuscular lipoma.

Abstract The orbit is involved in 10% of all lymphomas. Paranasal sinuses and nose are other sites for extranodal lymphoma that are involved in upto 2.6 to 6.7% of lymphomas involving head and neck region and are second most common presentation of extranodal lymphoma. In nearly 22.5% of patients, sinonasal lymphoma and orbital lymphoma may coexist. The present report describes such patient with first presentation to an ophthalmologist with an attempt to review the present literature of coexistent orbital and paranasal sinuses lymphoma.

Teratoid Cyst

Rudolf Virchow is considered to be the first scientist to have used the word sebaceous cyst. It was thought that these lesions occurred due to retention of sebaceous secretion consequent to obstruction of sebaceous ducts of sebaceous glands, although that was found not to be the case. In all these cysts, the cavity is filled with keratin. There are six types of keratin-filled cysts, namely, epidermoid, dermoid, teratoid, keratinous, trichilemmal, and teratoma cyst, which have one common name “dermoid cyst.” Of the six, teratoid cyst is the least common. In contrast to other dermoid cysts, teratoid cysts contain tissue elements derived from all the three germ layers, namely, ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. Teratomas can be differentiated from teratoid cysts by the fact that recognizable organ structures may be found in the former; examples include teeth and skin. Teratoid cysts can develop anywhere in the body but rarely arise in the head and neck region. They have never been reported in the postauricular region. In this case report, we present a case of teratoid cyst in the postauricular region in a 21-year-old female. The significance of this case lies in its rarity.

Diagnostic Difficulties

Hydatid disease is caused by the parasitic tapeworm, Echinococcus granulosus. This parasite in the larval stage can thrive in many parts of the body, most commonly in the liver and the lungs. Hydatid disease in the head and neck region is rare. An unusual location for hydatid disease in the thyroid gland is presented. The patient did not have other cysts postoperatively. The authors state the diagnostic difficulties caused by the omission of sonography during the diagnostic approach.
