Paragangliomas are extra-adrenal neuroendocrine tumours that derive from neural crest. They are benign tumours in general but few cases had shown their tendency to metastasize. Malignant forms have been reported previously with intracranial metastasis from duodenal origin but primary intracranial origin represent a rare and unusual location for such tumours. We report a rare case for a 48 year old lady who presented with symptomatic right sided insular mass with negative metastatic work up. A complete surgical resection had been done with an unexpected diagnosis of primary gangliocytic paraganglioma with malignant features.

A rare case of malignant paraganglioma of the urinary bladder with metastasis to a lymph node in a 12-year-old girl is reported, and eight other previously recorded cases are reviewed. Headache, fainting, and hypertention initiated by voiding were the most prominent clinical symptoms. Hematuria was Present in three cases and aided cystoscopy were most diagnostic. Cystography, pelvic angiogtaphy, and cystoscopy were most diagnostic. Segmental cystectomy, when feasible. was the preferred surgical treatment. The prognosis was slightly better than for other forms of extraadrenal pheochromocytomas.

Electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDXA) are found to be very useful tools for identification of etiologic agents in pneumoconiosis or interstitial pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis and granulomatosis are frequently associated with occupational and environmental pollution. Numerous reports of pneumoconiosis in various occupations such as coal and gold miners are presented in the literature. However, there is no known documented case of pulmonary changes in workers in the sandpaper industry. This study reports a rare case of pulmonary granulomatosis containing deposits from abrasives of sandpaper diagnosed by using EDXA.
