Intraparenchymal epididymal cysts (IECs) are benign cystic formations of the epididymis of unknown pathogenesis, which typically appear in adolescence or adulthood. In patients older than 14 years old their prevalence is doubled. After systematic and thorough research of the current literature, we did not find another case report of intraparenchymal epididymal cyst with similar dimensions. The male patient, 15 years old, visited our outpatient department complaining of pain in the right hemiscrotum. Diagnosis of IEC was confirmed after the conduction of ultrasound examination. Patient underwent surgical exploration of the right hemiscrotum. Resection of the IEC followed. Postoperative course was uneventful, with recession of the symptoms. In our opinion, IECs should be surgically removed, either when they are symptomatic or when they are asymptomatic, but of a diameter greater than 1 cm and without regression tendency.

Desmoplastic ameloblastoma (DA) is one of the 6 histopathological subtypes of ameloblastoma. Hybrid lesions in which histopathologically conventional ameloblastoma coexists with areas of DA are rare. A 40-year-old male was referred to our hospital complaining of a swelling in the right premolar region of the mandible. A panoramic radiograph showed an area of radiolucency with a well-defined corticated border, whereas computed tomography revealed a unilocular radiolucent lesion and buccal expansion together with cortical perforation. The lesion was treated via enucleation and curettage of the marginal bone and fenestration. A histopathological examination showed a hybrid ameloblastoma with a pronounced desmoplastic pattern and follicular changes. The patient’s postoperative course has been favorable up to now, and no marked changes have been observed. We presented a case of hybrid ameloblastoma and reviewed the 36 reported cases of hybrid ameloblastoma that have been reported in the English literature.

Cystosarcoma of the seminal vesicle is a very rare malignant tumor; in the literature only four cases are reported. We present a case of cystosarcoma phyllodes arising in the right seminal vesicle of a 49-year-old man without any urinary symptom but with persistent constipation. Ultrasound examination showed a mass at the right superior base of the prostate subsequently studied with CT and MRI. The patient underwent vesiculectomy; his postoperative course was uneventful. The patient is still well, without evidence of recurrent disease.

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.

We describe a case of Urrets-Zavalia syndrome (UZS) in a healthy 56-year-old woman who underwent femtosecond-assisted phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation in both eyes. One month after an uneventful postoperative course in the left eye, the right eye was operated. Dilated pupil which was nonreactive to light appeared on day 21 postoperatively. This was discovered upon examination following anterior chamber inflammatory reaction which occurred 2 weeks following her surgery. Our case report emphasizes the importance and danger in developing UZS even if the reaction in the anterior chamber does not occur immediately after surgery. In addition, the importance of intraocular pressure follow-up in the period after UZS is acknowledged.

We report a case of 66-year-old woman with true aneurysm of the right brachial artery. She presented with acute upper extremity ischemia. The hand was cold and parenthesized and distal pulses were absent. CT angiography (CTA) revealed a 20*25 mm true brachial artery aneurysm. The aneurysm was thrombosed without distal run-off. We excised the aneurysm and reestablished the arterial flow by a reverse saphenous interposition graft. The postoperative course was uneventful.

Cardiac angiosarcomas are rare malignant tumors, predominantly affecting the right heart with poor survival outcomes. The current mainstay of treatment consists of surgery with or without chemotherapy, but often yields limited results with local relapse or metastatic recurrence. This case report describes 2 patients with primary angiosarcoma located in the right atrium. One patient received neo-adjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy; both were scheduled for surgical resection. The course of disease is described followed by a comprehensive review of the literature.
