Lumbar hernia is a rare entity of abdominal wall hernia. Due to varied presentation it poses a challenge in diagnosis and management to attending surgeon. The requirement of preoperative imaging and clinical examination has indispensable role in the diagnosis and surgical (open or laparoscopic) approach is the only treatment option. We are presenting a case of 44 year old male, diagnosed as lumbar hernia with multiple defects and successfully managed by laparoscopic mesh hernioplasty. The primary lumbar hernia is a rare entity that a surgeon may encounter once in his lifetime making it an interesting surgical challenge. The adequate knowledge of preoperative imaging and anatomy are indispensable. With advances in minimally invasive surgery, it can be applied to patients with lumbar hernia and management requires a more tailored approach. This condition can be managed by laparoscopic approach successfully.

Abstract Background Primary Seminal Vesicle (SV) tumours are a rare entity, with most SV masses representing invasion of the SV by malignancy originating in an adjacent organ, most often the prostate. Previously reported primary SV epithelial tumours have included adenocarcinoma and cystadenoma, with limited prior reports of inracystic papillary structures. Case presentation A 35-year-old male presented with azoospermia, intermittent macroscopic haematuria, and mild right iliac fossa and groin pain. A papillary appearing seminal vesicle mass was found on imaging and seminal vesicoscopy. The mass was robotically excised with diagnosis of benign cystic papillary adenoma made. Conclusion In this manuscript we describe a rare case of a benign cystic papillary adenoma of the seminal vesicle, a unique histological entity differentiated from cystadenoma of the Seminal Vesicle by its papillary component.

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.

Gastric volvulus (GV) and wandering spleen (WS) associated with eventration of diaphragm share a common pathological cause of absence or laxity of intraperitoneal ligaments. We herein report a rare case of a 13-year-old child presenting with an acute GV, WS, diaphragmatic eventration and an ectopic ascended kidney managed with a laparoscopic approach.

ABSTRACT Basal cell adenoma (BCA) is a significantly rare benign salivary gland neoplasm that includes isomorphic basaloid cells. Presence of myoepithelial cell is a characteristic of this tumor. Basal cell adenoma accounts for only 1 to 2% of all salivary gland epithelial tumors. The goal of the paper is to report a rare case of tubular type of BCA arising from parotid gland and discuss its management. How to cite this article Shah PD, Mukherji S. Tubular Type of Basal Cell Adenoma of Parotid Gland: A Rare Entity. J Contemp Dent 2015;5(3):184-187.

Background: Spinal intramedullary cysts present a radiological dilemma. We present a rare case of a conus intramedullary arachnoid cyst and report on its differentiating features and management. Case Description: We report a case of a 30-month-old child who presented with decreased gluteal sensation and urinary dribbling for 6 months. Apart from some slowness in walking, the power was normal in all four limbs. Imaging showed a non-enhancing, T2-weighted hyperintense 12 × 8 mm conus intramedullary cyst without any edema. A T12-L1 laminotomy followed by marsupialization of the cyst was done. Histopathology was suggestive of an arachnoid cyst. The postoperative course was uneventful with improvement in muscle strength and achievement of regular milestones. We also present the pertinent review of the literature to date. Conclusion: Intramedullary arachnoid cysts are a rare entity and should form the differential diagnosis for cysts presenting in the conus medullaris. Simple decompressive options may suffice for symptomatic cases and radical excision may be avoided. A high index of suspicion is essential considering the subtle nature of presenting symptoms.

ABSTRACT Methotrexate is one of the most widely used broad-spectrum immunomodulator. It can be used as a primary option or as in combination of drugs in various immunological conditions. Generally, it is safe when use in lower dosages. However, a clinician has to be alert regarding some of its less common but toxic side-effects. Here, we discuss a rare case who developed methotrexate-induced pulmonary toxicity. How to cite this article Mishra M, Jain VK, Sharma A, Bhardwaj G, Maan L. Methotrexate-induced Pulmonary Toxicity Bronchiolitis Obliterans Organizing Pneumonia: A Rare Entity. J Mahatma Gandhi Univ Med Sci Tech 2016;1(2):64-65.
