Haemangiomas are common benign vascular tumours of infancy and childhood. Haemangiomas occur in 10-12% of children of 1 year of age and most of them are self-resolving within 9 years of age. Most common sites are head and neck (around 90%) and lip is one of the preferred sites. Sometimes persistence of haemangiomas may require surgical intervention. Capillary haemangiomas generally located superficially and cavernous haemangiomas located deep. Mixed capillary-cavernous haemangiomas or compound haemangiomas are one of the rarer types and location at lip rarest. Here we report a 14-years-old boy presented to paediatric surgery outdoor with swelling in lower lip for last 3 years. The excisional biopsy done with a clinical diagnosis of granuloma and sent for histopathological study. On microscopy of tissue sections given from lesion showed stratified squamous epithelium with sub epithelium revealing two distinct areas of capillary haemangioma component and cavernous haemangioma component within the lesion. So, final diagnosis of capillary-cavernous haemangioma (compound haemangioma) was made without any granuloma or malignant component. Patient followed up for six months and he was completely asymptomatic without any residual disease and recurrence.

Abstract A gastric duplication cyst (GDC) is an uncommon gastrointestinal (GI) tract anomaly in adults. Nonspecific symptoms make it difficult to diagnose, while radiological examination might be helpful. However, the final diagnosis is made after eradication and histopathological study. Herein we report a case of an asymptomatic, incidentally diagnosed gastric duplication cyst discovered during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in a 55-year-old female.

Vascular Leiomyoma (VL) is a benign soft tissue tumor rarely observed in oral tissues. The aim of this paper is to present a new case of vascular leiomyoma of the lip (VLL), describing its clinical, microscopical, and immunohistochemical features, and review the literature on the tumor. A 27-year-old woman presented with a small painful lesion on lower lip mucosa. Excisional biopsy revealed a well-circumscribed, encapsulated mass formed by small and fusiform cells. Immunohistochemistry analysis revealed intense and diffuse expression of smooth muscle actin (SMA) within the tumor cells and CD34 immunoreactivity of the endothelial cells lining the vascular spaces, indicating the presence of blood vessels. A final diagnosis of VLL was established. No signs of recurrence were observed after five years of follow-up. Although VLL is a rare lesion, it must be considered in the differential diagnosis of nodular lesions on lower and upper lips.

Chondroblastoma is one of the benign cartilaginous bone tumours. Location wise, it is mostly located in immature epiphysis of long bones. Along with epiphysis, many times it also involves metaphysis. Pure metaphyseal tumours are uncommon. Pure diaphyseal tumours are rarest with only very few cases reported in the literature. The most common age group for this tumour is 10-17 years. It is uncommon in patients less than 10 years and those more than 25 years of age. Diaphyseal chondroblastoma in less than 10 years of age group is extremely rare. Hereby, authors report a case of 14-month-old male child who presented to the paediatric orthopaedic outdoor with complaints of the swollen left leg and associated pain by the parents for the last 1 month. There was no history of trauma/weight loss/fever. No difficulty in walking was present. Local examinations of the left leg showed a well-defined globular swelling of size 3×3 cm in the middle part medial aspect. The underlying tibia was continuous with that of swelling having restricted painful movement. X-ray showed an osteolytic, expansile, cortical, eccentric lesion in the middle third (diaphysis) of the left tibia. Correlating the clinical and radiological findings, clinical diagnosis of osteofibrous dysplasia was considered. The intralesional curettage and bone grafting were done and tissue was sent for histopathology. Histopathology showed the characteristic findings of chondroblastoma. The final diagnosis of diaphyseal chondroblastoma of the left tibia was made. The postoperative events were unremarkable and the patient followed-up to eight months with a happy outcome without any residual disease or recurrence.

SummaryAmong the numerous existing computer-based systems for processing pathological data, none contains sufficient space for encoding data on the basic cytological or histological changes of a certain organ or tissue, upon which the final diagnosis is based.An “analytical record” was constructed listing all the basic changes that can be encountered in the various pathological conditions of the vascular wall. The data collected on the “analytical record” were coded by means of an alphanumeric code and stored in an Apple II 48 K minicomputer.The advantages of this system include the computerization of the data by non-specialized personnel and the possibility to’ quantitatively analyze the histocytopathological parameters used for diagnosis in vascular pathology. This coding system may easily be adapted, with minor modifications, to the histopathological study of other organs and tissues.

Rare Case Report

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.

Cervical melanosis is a rare entity in the spectrum of melanocytic lesions of uterine cervix. Melanosis is defined as presence of melanocytes in the basal layer of squamous epithelium causing hyperpigmentation. Authors here by report a case of 57-year-old female who underwent vaginal hysterectomy for third degree utero-vaginal prolapse, showed an incidental gross pathological finding of brownish macular lesion. Histopathological examination showed hyperpigmentation of basal layer without increase in melanocytes. On immunohistochemical examination, basal melanocytes were highlighted by S-100 and HMB 45 immunostains. Thus final diagnosis of cervical melanosis was made. Clinical differentials of cervical pigmented melanocytic lesions include cervical melanomas, blue nevi, congenital or traumatic lesions and melanosis, hence vigilant clinical, gross pathological examination and biopsy is warranted.

Axillary Mass

Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare, aggressive sarcoma usually arising in the abdomen or pelvis of young males under 30 years of age. We present a case of a 32-year-old male with a palpable axillary mass and multiple bilateral lung nodules. Excisional biopsy of the axillary mass showed sheets and nests of small round cells with numerous mitoses, areas of necrosis, and desmoplastic stroma. Initial immunohistochemical stains performed at an outside institution demonstrated immunoreactivity for epithelial markers and focal reactivity for breast markers. The tumor was initially diagnosed as poorly differentiated carcinoma, with consideration of a possible primary breast cancer. Additional workup demonstrated strong, diffuse positivity for desmin in tumor cells, leading to the final diagnosis of DSRCT. Subsequent molecular testing confirmed DSRCT with EWSR1 gene rearrangement. This case illustrates the importance of recognizing the morphologic features of DSRCT in the setting of uncommon location or patient age.

<p>This publication presents the clinical observation in a paediatric patient with haemangioma of the left stomach. The effectiveness of surgical treatment of this disease is also noted. We assess the challenges in diagnosis and the choice of treatment of this pathology in children and the effectiveness of surgical treatment disease.<br />Primary cardiac tumours are rare; vascular tumours and haemangiomas are rarer. The clinical picture of heart haemangioma is non-specific and varies as per its location and size. Echocardiography is the main diagnostic method for this disease. However, in most cases of preoperative diagnostic examination, the pre-surgery diagnosis is not confirmed. The final diagnosis of capillary haemangioma is established following immunohistochemical staining of the surgical material. Thus far, owing to the rare occurrence, a generally accepted tactic for the treatment of such patients with vascular heart tumours has not been developed.<br />This clinical case describes our experience of treating a rare pathology in children with unusual localisation as well as the rapid successful surgical removal of the tumour without complications and with a favourable post-surgery recovery period.</p><p>Received 14 May 2020.
