We report a case of  a patient  in his early  30s’ who presented with an ulcero-proliferative growth over the left buccal mucosa , he was also on treatment for CML in blast crisis on Hydroxyurea and a known case of Ichthyosis Follicularis, Alopecia, and Photophobia (IFAP) syndrome. Though a working diagnosis of chloroma / Hydroxyurea induced erosive Lichen planus  was suspected, the histopathological examination of the lesion was suggestive of Squamous cell Carcinoma. He was subsequently planned for palliative radiotherapy .

Primary vaginal carcinoma in uterovaginal prolapse is a rare entity. We report a case of an 84-years-old lady, who presented with long standing vaginal ulcer in association with third degree uterovaginal prolapse. Incisional biopsy was taken from the ulcer. Histopathological examination showed a large cell keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma. Keywords: Squamous cell carcinoma, uterovaginal prolapse, vaginal carcinoma.

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the bladder is uncommon, but can arise in the setting of long-term bladder catheterization and chronic inflammation. SCC can arise primarily from the suprapubic catheter tract, but fewer than 10 such cases have been reported. We document 2 cases of SCC arising from the suprapubic tract associated with chronic indwelling urinary catheters. SCC must be differentiated from granulomatous conditions, which are quite common in patients with suprapubic catheters.

Gingival Squamous cell carcinoma (GSCC) in maxilla is a rare malignant neoplasm especially when compared with mandible. The most common sites of oral carcinoma are being the lateral border of the tongue and the floor of the mouth which is followed by palate, buccal mucosa and rarely in gingiva. The clinical picture of oral carcinoma can be misguided for gingival overgrowth, desquamative lesions, traumatic ulcers or even pyogenic granuloma. Maxillary oral gingival carcinoma is a rare entity especially in a non-smoker. In this case report, a 70-year-old male patient presented with a gingival lesion in maxilla 24,25 region mimicking pyogenic granuloma without having a tobacco history. A thorough clinical, radiographical and histopathological examination was done and led to the diagnosis of GSCC and the treatment was initiated.Creating awareness among practitioners about gingival squamous cell carcinoma mimicking pyogenic granuloma in dental practice.

Introduction: Oral papillary squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is a rare variant of squamous cell carcinoma with an unusual presentation in the palate. Observation: This case report presents a 68 year old male who reported with pain in the roof of the jaw for the past one month. The patient gave a history of a small ulcer over the right palatal region since a year which gradually increased in size. History also revealed that he was a tobacco chewer for around five years and had quit the habit one year back. Clinically, a proliferative growth in the right palatal region was apparent. The growth was firm in consistency and had well-defined borders that crossed the midline of palate. Based on the noticeable clinical signs, the case was provisionally diagnosed as verrucous carcinoma. Histopathology report of the incisional biopsy confirmed the case to be non-invasive oral papillary squamous cell carcinoma. Commentary: OPSCC displays either a papillary variant or exophytic pattern. It has a better prognosis than squamous cell carcinoma of similar clinical stage but is worse than verrucous carcinoma. Conclusion: Since OPSCC may mimic other benign conditions of oral cavity, evaluation of clinical parameters that are associated with the risk of carcinoma is mandatory. This article highlights the significance of histopathological examination that aids the clinician to arrive at a diagnosis for any suspicious papillary lesions.

Abstract Inverted papilloma is an uncommon tumor mostly arising from the lateral wall of the nasal cavity and displays a benign but locally aggressive behavior. Intracranial extension is an extremely rare presentation of inverted papilloma. Extension occurs either as a benign lesion or due to malignant transformation. We report a case of concurrent inverted papilloma and squamous cell carcinoma presenting with epistaxis and recent-onset altered behavior and memory impairment. After literature review of similar cases having inverted papilloma with intracranial extension, we could identify a total of 12 cases, most of which were recurrences of a primary inverted papilloma that were resected before extension into the cranial cavity. Most cases were of extradural extension, and intradural spread resulted in poor prognosis on follow-up. Concurrent inverted papilloma and squamous cell carcinoma extending into the anterior cranial fossa and frontal lobe is a very rare clinical entity and can present as frontal lobe syndrome.
