An urachal cyst anomaly occurs in approximately 1/5,000 births. Its treatment is surgical excision. We present a case report of 16-year-old female with presenting complaints of lower abdominal pain with burning micturition and increased urinary frequency. Computed tomography revealed a 40×38 mm low-density cyst image located in midline cranial to the bladder apex, suggesting the diagnosis of urachal cyst. Traditional open surgery was used for its excision, but now minimally invasive approaches have been used more frequently to minimize the morbidity. We did a trans-abdominal preperitoneal approach, which aided in both the purpose of diagnostic laparoscopy and also utilize the advantage of preperitoneal surgery.

Introduction: Diagnostic Laparoscopy is considered to be the gold standard for the evaluation of the pelvis and is considered asafe procedure. Diagnostic Laparoscopy is a technique in the routine investigation and treatment of infertility as well as other gynecologicalproblems. Objectives: To determine, Laparoscopic findings in different gynecological conditions, different causes of infertility andcomplications of laparoscopy Design: Retrospective, descriptive study. Material And Methods: We reviewed case records of all patients whounderwent laparoscopy for their different Gynecological problems. Data were collected from patient case records in a data entry sheet Results:In our study a total of Thirty patients under went laparoscopy for investigation of different gynecological problems. There were 17 patients whohave primary infertility and 6 have secondary infertility while 7 presented with Lower abdominal pain. In our study the leading cause of primaryinfertility was Polycystic Ovarian Disease(29%).Other causes were bilateral tubal blockade (23.53 %) ,17% has PID and fibroid uteri, While onepatients shown Endometriosis as well as one patient had no obvious pathology.(5.88 %).On laparoscopic examination of secondaryinfertility 50% shown Tubal blocked while 16.67 shown Fibroid uterus and PID.One patient had normal pelvic findings(16.67). Regardingpatients presented with pain lower abdomen 57.15% has ovarian cyst,28.58% has Ectopic pregnancy while one case(14.29%) had hetrotropicpregnancy. In 24 patients had no complication and recovery was smooth. laparoscopy had to be converted into Laparotomy due to significanthemorrhage in two patient and wound infection was observed in two patients. One patient presented with post operative fever and onepresented with abdominal pain. Conclusions: Laparoscopy is a valuable diagnostic tool for females in different gynecological problems. Thebenefit of the laparoscopy to open surgery include less pain, less scarring, less disability and quicker recovery.

ABSTRACT A rare case of sinonasal paraganglioma is described. A 40-year-old female patient presented with 2 years history of unilateral nasal obstruction and bleeding. CT scan demonstrated an expansile enhancing mass involving bilateral ethmoids, right nasal cavity and right maxillary sinus. Histopathological diagnosis was neuroendocrine tumor with possibility of paraganglioma. A subtotal maxillectomy with excision of mass performed. Primary nonchromaffin paraganglioma of nose and paranasal sinus is a very rare tumor, these lesion pose diagnostic challenge to clinicians and pathologist. Only twenty five cases are reported in review of literature. Surgical excision is the mainstay of treatment. How to cite this article Arora V, Verma P, Singh PP, Wadhwa N, Bhatia K.

AbstractLeiomyosarcoma (LMS) of the tongue is an extremely rare mesenchymal tumor. Till now, we came across about 24 cases of tongue LMS reported in the literature. Here, we are presenting the case of a 50-year-old female with 4 months history of ulcerative growth on the tongue along with difficulty in swallowing and tongue movement who was diagnosed with LMS of the tongue on histopathology. He was managed with surgical excision followed by radiotherapy without any recurrence or metastasis after 6 months of follow-up.

Ameloblastoma is a benign odontogenic tumor. These are usually asymptomatic until a large size is attained. Ameloblastoma has tendency to spread locally and has a high recurrence rate. Majority of ameloblastomas (80%) arise from the mandible. Ameloblastoma arising from anterior mandibular region (symphysis- menti) is rare. Very few cases of midline anterior ameloblastomas are reported in the literature. They often require wide local excision. Reconstruction of mandible in these cases is challenging. We present a case of mandibular ameloblastoma arising from symphysis- menti. Patient underwent wide surgical excision of the tumor followed by immediate reconstruction using free fibular vascular flap, stabilized with titanium reconstructive plates. A brief case report ands review of literature is presented.

Fibrolipoma is one of the rare variants of the lipoma, and very few cases have been reported in the thigh. These lesions are generally painless, but can grow to large size due to malignant transformation to liposarcoma. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice. The prognosis is generally good as recurrence rate is very less if adequate excision is done. In old age patient, risk of malignant transformation is very high leading to early excision. Here, we present a case of fibrolipoma in thigh in 57 year old female and its further management.

ABSTRACTrhabdomyosarcoma is a rare malignant tumour occurring in the hand. though the prognosis for this tumour is poor, when it occurs in the hand, early diagnosis is possible, since the swelling becomes clinically obvious. radical surgical excision even at the cost of significant functional loss is recommended with possible reconstruction once the disease is under control. advances in chemotherapy protocols and radiotherapy in selected cases has improved the prognosis. Rhabdomyosarcoma arising in the thumb of a four-year-old child is presented. he was treated by amputation of the thumb at the carpometacarpal joint level followed by chemotherapy. when he was disease-free at 18 months, thumb was reconstructed by pollicisation of the index finger. the child has remained recurrence-free at 30 months from diagnosis. the patient details are presented with review of the relevant literature.

ABSTRACT Objective Four cases of laryngeal lipoma are presented with a discussion of their differential diagnoses and management. Materials and methods Case report and literature review. Results Laryngeal lipomas, though a fairly rare entity, are occasionally the cause of persistent hoarseness of voice. An accurate diagnosis is important and the management may vary from surgical excision to only wait and watch policy, as these tumors are usually slow growing. A discussion of the presentation and management of four cases of laryngeal lipoma managed by us is documented with a review of literature. Conclusion Laryngeal lipomas have no set management protocol. A custom-made plan for each patient should be charted out depending on the symptoms of the patient and extent of the lipoma.

Backround: parotid hemangiomas are rare vascular benign tumors 0.4-0.6%.  Though capillary type of hemangiomas have been shown a good response to medical therary, cavernous hemangiomas usually require surgical excision. Case report and discussion: 11 years girl with failure of medical treatment for parotid cavernous hemangioma was evaluated and operated with superficial conservative parotidectomy at aimsr, Hyderabad. Review of literature: reports mostly tab propranolol to be treatment for the condition; it has guarded effect over cavernous hemangioma. Conclusion: cavernous parotid hemangioma though rare, treatment mostly remains parotidectomy after proper evaluation for its feeding vessels.
