Gastric schwannomas are rare mesenchymal tumors that arise from the nerve plexus of gut wall. They present with nonspecific symptoms and are often detected incidentally. Preoperative investigation is not pathognomic and many are therefore misdiagnosed as gastrointestinal stromal tumors. We report a rare case of a 37-year old woman who underwent laparotomy for complex bilateral ovarian cyst with resection of gastric-gastrointestinal stromal tumor preoperatively, but confirmed to have a gastric schwannomas postoperatively. This case underscores the differential diagnosis of submucosal, exophytic gastric mass as schwannoma.

Pericardial Defect

Congenital absence of pericardium is rare. Pericardial defects can be complete or partial. Partial pericardial defect may be symptomatic. We report a rare case of partial pericardial defect in an asymptomatic patient which was suggested by chest radiograph and confirmed by computed tomography and brief review of literature is also presented.

Schwannomas origin from Schwann cells sheath and generally are benign, slow-growing, and asymptomatic neoplasms which frequently appear in the head and neck. Although gastrointestinal schwannoma is really rare, the most affected organ in GI system is the stomach. Gastric schwannoma forms 0.2% of all gastric tumors. This neoplasm is always detected as a submucosal mass, the same as other gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Although these tumors have almost the same presentations, they are completely different at therapeutic options and prognoses. Hence, it is important to distinguish them apart and make an accurate diagnosis to optimize treatment outcomes. Herein, we report a case of 28-year-old woman with frequent vomiting and abdominal pain caused by 5 × 6 cm schwannoma in the antrum of the stomach. This is a rare case of gastric outlet obstruction due to a massive schwannoma. In addition, all other probable submucosal masses will be discussed at different aspects.

Multiple odontogenic keratocysts are a rare, but well recognized condition that characteristically affects the jaws of middle aged women .The radiographic appearance can vary from areas of radiolucency to mixed lesions and to opaque masses which are often bilaterally. This condition has been classified as sclerosing osteitis, multiple enostoses, diffuse chronic osteomyelitis and gigantiform cementoma. The lesion is usually benign and requires no treatment unless cosmetically concerning or becomes symptomatic. For the asymptomatic patient the best management consists of regular recall examination with prophylaxis and maintenance of good oral hygiene According to the recent review of literature, only five patients of florid cemento-osseous dysplasia from India have been reported (less than 2%). Here present such a rare case occurring in a 38 year –old- female who came with dull pain in upper right back teeth region since 6 months. Radiographically, it showed mixed radiolucent / radio-opaque mass in both right and left premolar to molar region.
