Background: Hemolymphangioma is a rare benign tumor. To the best of our knowledge, there were only 10 reports of this tumor of the pancreas until March 2018. Case Report: Here, we reported a large invasive hemolymphangioma of the pancreas in a young woman with a complaint of abdominal distension and an epigastric mass about 3 weeks. She was found to have a huge multilocular cystic tumor at the neck and body of pancreas on computed tomography. She was eventually diagnosed with hemolymphangioma of the pancreas after operation. After 2 years of follow-up, there was no signs of recurrence. Conclusion: From our case and literature, we can conclude that hemolymphangioma of the pancreas is uncommon benign tumor, and it is hard to make an accurate diagnosis preoperatively. Radical surgical resection should be performed whenever possible. The prognosis of this disease seems good.

Background: PRMC is a very rare benign tumor of the abdominal cavity that usually occurs in women, and PRMC demonstrate no specific findings on CT. There are many reports on the differential diagnosis and discussion of PRMC imaging, but there are few reports on the treatment of dedifferentiated PRMC using laparoscopic resection and postoperative follow-up.

INTRODUCTION: lipoleiomyoma is a rare benign tumor of the uterus, with an incidence ranging between 0.03% and 0.2%. DESCRIPTION: the authors report a case of lipoleiomyoma diagnosis in an 82-year-old woman with a totally prolapsed uterus. DISCUSSION: lipoleiomyoma is most common among postmenopausal women and is associated with ordinary leiomyomas. Histologically it is composed of smooth muscle, adipocytes and fibrous tissue. In general asymptomatic, the diagnosis usually involves imaging studies such as ultrasound and computed tomography of the pelvis.

Adenomyoepithelioma is rare tumors of the breast. It is a benign tumor with balanced proliferation of both epithelial and myoepithelial cells. This benign tumor is known for its recurrences and metastatic potential. Hence accurate diagnosis with close follow up is mandatory. We present a case report on a young lady with adenomyoepithelioma who presented with well defined small nodules in her right breast.

Introduction: Osteochondroma of mandibular condyle is a rare benign tumor. Case Report: This case report described clinical, radiographic features, differential diagnosis, histopathologic correlation and treatment of condylar osteochondroma. Conclusion: Conebeam computed tomography (CBCT) is an alternative modality to CT or MRI that should be performed in all cases of suspected osteochondroma of the mandibular condyle.

Gastric lipoma is a rare benign tumor and seen in five percent of gastro-intestinal lipomas and accounts for less than one percent of all gastric tumors. Gastric lipomas are located submucosally and usually in antral region of Stomach. Computed tomography is considered as valuable tool in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal lipomas. Due to their relative rarity, gastric lipomas are often left out of the differential diagnosis for upper gastro-intestinal submucosal masses. We report a case of 70 year female that presented with upper abdominal pain since last two years. Abdominal Computed tomography revealed a large gastric lipoma in antral region. Patient refused for any surgical intervention due to old age. Patient was provided symptomatic treatment and was under regular follow-up.

Testicular fibroma of gonadal stromal origin is a rare benign tumor of testis, which usually presents as a slow growing testicular mass. Intratesticular fibroma of gonadal stromal origin, with or without minor sex cord elements, must be considered, analogous to similar tumors in ovary, as a benign tumor. Until now, only 25 cases of testicular fibroma have been reported in the literature. We reported a case of testicular fibroma in a 20 years male who presented with painless right testicular enlargement since two years. Ultrasonography (USG) showed heterogeneous mass in right scrotum suggestive of testicular malignancy. Right orchidectomy was done. Histopathological diagnosis was testicular fibroma, which was confirmed by immunohistochemistry.

Congenitally deformed tibia-fibulas of both hind limbs were diagnosed in a four-month-old, female, domestic shorthair cat that was unable to bear weight and whose movement was painful on both stifle and hock joints. Bleeding was observed repeatedly from the wound made by deformed tibias at the cranial sides of hock joints where the bones were exposed. Radiography and computed tomography revealed a corn-shaped tibia and bow shaped fibula which extended cranio-distally without formation of the hock joints. Femoro-tarsal arthrodesis was successfully executed on both hind legs after exclusion of the deformed and pliable tibia-fibulas. Follow-up radiography showed that bone fusions had gradually improved and were without complications. Postoperatively, the cat was capable of walking on the corrected hind legs and running on the movement of hip joints. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the 1st reported case of femoro-tarsal arthrodesis in a cat. In this case, femoro-tarsal arthrodesis resulted in a satisfactory outcome for congenitally deformed tibia-fibulas in cat.

SummaryObjective: To quantitatively evaluate the change of the coxofemoral joints using computed tomography and distraction index in a cat with hip dysplasia treated by juvenile pubic symphysiodesis.Study Design: Case report.Animal: Eighteen-week-old female entire Maine Coon cat.Results: Juvenile pubic symphysiodesis resulted in changes in the distraction index, acetabular angle, dorsal acetabular rim angle, dorsal acetabular sector angle, and clinical improvement at the six month follow-up. No intra-operative or postoperative complications were recorded.Conclusions: Juvenile pubic symphysiodesis performed at 18 weeks of age resulted in improvement in hip joint conformation and hip laxity in a dysplastic cat.Clinical relevance: Juvenile pubic symphysiodesis may be a promising treatment for feline hip dysplasia and is a safe and technically simple procedure to perform. Further investigations are warranted.

AbstractCardiac osteosarcoma metastasis is extremely rare and is documented in several case reports in the literature. The behaviour of osteosarcoma metastases is similar to the primary tumour. Thoracic non-enhanced computed tomography (CT) examination is beneficial in the detection of calcific cardiac metastases. In this case report, we describe a 29-year-old woman with cardiac osteosarcoma metastasis after 7 years of follow-up, compare the demographic features with previous cases and discuss the imaging findings.
