Scrotal Swelling

Sarcomas of the genitourinary tract are extremely uncommon and accounts for only 1-2% of genito urinary malignancies. Sarcomas of the para testicular region, comprising tissues such as the epididymis, spermatic cord, inguinal canal and testicular tunica are also extremely rare. epidydimal leiomyosarcoma accounted only for 4 percentage of all para testicular tumours and only 16 cases are reported so far in literature and they account 4% of all Para testicular sarcomas. We are presenting a 61-year-old patient presented with a hard welling of 1 year duration, with no other associated symptoms. On ultrasound evaluation, it was reported as extra testicular lesion, possibly from epididymal tail. We performed a high inguinal orchidectomy. Histopathological examination revealed a para testicular leiomyosarcoma arising from epididymis. This case has discussed because of the rarity of the disease and possible cure if diagnosed early and treated aggressively.

Fibrous Tumor

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare mesenchymal tumors, originally identified in the pleura. Even though they have subsequently been described in several extrapleural sites, the incidence of SFTs in the spermatic cord is particularly rare. Here, we report a case of a 27-year-old male that presented with a 3-year history of left scrotal swelling. Computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound demonstrated multiple solid, hypoechoic well-circumscribed masses that were separate from the testis. Surgical excision of the mass led to pathologic diagnosis of a solitary fibrous tumor involving the spermatic cord. Solitary fibrous tumors, although rare, are an important differential diagnosis for urogenital tumors.

Primary intraosseous vascular malformations (PIVMs) are rare intraosseous lesions, accounting for approximately 0.5–1% of all intraosseous tumours. In this case report, we aimed to present a rare case of intraosseous vascular malformation causing a large lytic area in the parietal bone. A 25-year-old male patient was admitted to the clinic with a mass on the parietal bone. On physical examination, it was observed that the hair density on the mass was decreased, the mass had a soft consistency, and there was no pain on palpation. The patient was operated under local anaesthesia with a provisional diagnosis of a trichilemmal cyst. However, intraoperative diagnosis was a vascular malformation. There was a 3-cm full-thickness defect on the parietal bone caused by the lesion. The mass was excised completely while preserving the integrity of the dura. The resulting defect was reconstructed with bilateral rotation advancement flaps. The calvarial defect was not reconstructed due to equipment inadequacy. No complications were encountered in the postoperative period. Ninety-three PIVM cases have been reported in the skull since 1845. In very few of these cases, the mass is located in the parietal bone. The pathogenesis of PIVMs is not completely understood. The definitive diagnosis is made by histopathological examination. The therapeutic gold standard is surgery. Surgeons should keep in mind that radiological examination before the operation could prevent undesirable complications.

A Rare case of heterotopic pancreatic tissue of ileum causing acute intestinal obstruction has been described with a brief review of literature. A 42 yr old male patient presented to the emergency department with features of acute intestinal obstruction. After evaluation patient was taken up for emergency laparotomy which revealed a band to be arising from ileum. Furthermore, there was a small growth in the ileal wall at the site of origin of the band. Hence resection of the growth was done and followed by ileoileal anastomosis. Later on, histopathological examination of the growth revealed it to be heterotopic pancreatic tissue. Heterotopic pancreatic tissue is often an incidental nding encountered in upper gastrointestinal tract during endoscopy and surgeries. But Symptomatic ectopic pancreas of ileum is relatively rare and they very rarely present with acute symptoms as in this case

Branchial pouch-derived anomalies may arise from remnants of the first, second, or third/fourth branchial arches. Branchial pouch-related structures are found within the thyroid gland in the form of solid cell rests, epithelial lined cyst with or without an associated lymphoid component, thymic and/or parathyroid tissue, and less commonly in the form of heterotopic cartilage. We present a rare case of left solid thyroid swelling nearby two cervical nodules in a seven-year-old female with a clinical diagnosis suggestive of malignant thyroid tumor with metastasis to the cervical lymph nodes. Histopathological examination revealed that it was compatible with third/fourth branchial pouch-derived anomaly composed of mature cartilage and thymic and parathyroid tissues for clinical and radiological correlations.

ABSTRACT The trichoepithelioma is a benign cutaneous neoplasm which is derived from hair follicles. It is common in the face, but there are only three reports of the solitary occurrence on the nose. It is often not recognized because of its rarity, controversial classification, origin and biological potential. The objective of this paper is to present a case of solitary trichoepithelioma on the nose, histopathological examination and treatment. It should be considered as a differential diagnosis of a solitary lesion of nose which is confused with basal cell carcinoma. The confirmation by histopathological examination is essential.

ABSTRACT Struma ovarii (SO) is a rare special type of monodermal teratoma of ovary that predominantly consists of thyroid tissue (> 50%). In only 5 to 20% of cases hyperthyroidism is seen due to functional SO. We are reporting here a case of unilateral benign cystic SO in a 50-year-old postmenopausal lady presented with pain and heaviness in lower abdomen without any signs and symptoms of hyperthyroidism. Pelvic ultrasonogram showed right side tubo-ovarian mass and was planned for laparotomy. In preoperative investigation subclinical hyperthyroidism was diagnosed. Abdominal exploration showed cystic mass lesion in right ovary. She underwent total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Histopathological examination diagnosed the mass as benign cystic SO. Patient became euthyroid after surgical removal of tumor. How to cite this article Lata I, Kapoor D.

Endometriosis is a benign disorder and characterized by ectopic endometrium like tissues outside the uterus. We report a case of a 31 year-old woman referred to our clinic due to complaints of a vulvar and umbilical mass and periodic swelling with pain of the mass at the time of menstruation. The cyst was removed totally. Histopathological examination showed findings compatible with endometriosis in both. We have treated them with suppressive treatment with Depot Medroxy Progesterone Acetate (DMPA) and after six months patient was completely asymptomatic.

<p class="abstract">Teratomas are embryonal neoplasm arises from totipotent germ cells. They are having tissues from all the three blastodermic layers. There are various locations of congenital teratoma. Naso-oropharyngeal site teratoma are either sessile or pedunculated. We describe a rare case of laryngeal teratoma in a five years old patient presented with change in voice and breathing difficulty. On flexible laryngoscopy, it appeared like supraglottic cyst but on CT scan it was confirmed as teratoma. Pre-operative tracheostomy and transoral carbon dioxide laser assisted excision done. Histopathological examination showed osteoid trabeculae, chondroid tissue with loose myxoid islands and adipose tissue. No recurrence of tumor on 18 months follow-up. This is the first case report of pediatric larynx teratoma reported in present century.</p>

Rare Case Report

Paratesticular rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are very rare malignant tumors arising from the mesenchymal tissues of tunica, epididymis or spermatic cord. They present as painless hard masses in inguinoscrotal region, and large tumors can be mistaken for testicular tumors. They can spread to retroperitoneal lymph nodes or hematogenously metastasize to lung, bones and bone marrow. Here, we report a case of Embryonal RMS with spindle cell component presenting with painless scrotal mass and lung metastasis at initial diagnosis.
