Polycystic (dysgenetic) disease of the salivary glands is a rare entity that has only recently been described in the literature. The disease is more commonly seen in females and majority of the cases have presented as bilateral parotid gland swellings. This case presenting in a 21-year-old male is the first of this unusual entity involving solely the minor salivary gland on the lower lip. This case report highlights the importance for the clinician to be aware of this differential diagnosis, when treating an innocuous lesion like a mucocele.

ABSTRACT Schwannomas or neurilemmomas are benign, encapsulated tumor arising from nerve sheath cells. Intracranial Schwannomas are most common with rare occurrence in the extracranial region. It rarely occurs in the floor of the mouth with very few cases reported. We present a rare case report of Schwannoma of the floor of the mouth, thereby highlighting the consideration of this rare entity as one of the differential diagnosis in cases who present to us with swelling of the floor of the mouth and also the importance of immunohistochemistry in coming to the diagnosis.

Dysembryoplastic neuropithelial tumor (DNET) is a rare recently described, benign glioneural tumor frequently associated with intractable seizures in children and young adults which is important to recognise clinically and radiologically as it is surgically curable without need for adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. We hereby present a case report of a 10year old male child who presented with intractable seizures and right parietal space occupying lesion which was diagnosed DNET radiologically, treated by microsurgical excision and confirmed histopathologically as DNET, thus emphasising multidisciplinary role in management of this rare entity.

Tuberculosis is a major health problem in India and in view of rise in the MDR tuberculosis atypical presentations are getting commoner these days and are difficult to diagnose. Musculoskeletal tuberculosis is very common among the  hematogenous spread cases of pulmonary tuberculosis involving thoracic spine the most. Involvement of sacrum and coccyx is rarest of  the possibility and isolated sacrococcygeal tuberculosis thus is very rare. Being a rare entity a high index of clinical suspicion is required to diagnose it. We hereby report a very rare case report of sacrococcygeal tuberculosis.

Placental polyp is the retained fragment of placental tissue which presents as a polypoidal or pedunculated mass within the uterus. It is a rare entity and has an incidence of less than 0.25 % of all pregnancies. There are also very few reported cases of the clinical placental polyp. Here,we report a case of 22-year-old P1 woman presenting with vaginal bleeding and something coming down into vagina.Her last pregnancy had occurred one year ago.Laboratory investigation revealed slightly elevated serum b-hCG. Ultrasonography revealed thick endometrium, broad cervix (5.2cm) and a hyperechoic mass within the cervix. Extraction of the placental polyp followed by endometrial curettage were done and tissue sent for histopathology. Definite diagnosis was made by histopathological examination and which was a placental polyp. Chatt Maa Shi Hosp Med Coll J; Vol.20 (2); July 2021; Page 85-88

Male breast carcinoma is a rare entity. Here, we present a case of mixed mucinous carcinoma i.e. composite mucinous carcinoma with infiltrating ductal carcinoma component in a 55 year old man. Patient clinically presented with a lump in his right breast. Histopathological examination of the breast mass showed tumor cells arranged in nests, cords, cribriform pattern in a mucinous stroma and a part of tumor was showing features of infiltrating ductal carcinoma with desmoplastic stroma.
