Context: Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT), also known as inflammatory pseudotumor or plasma cell granuloma is a benign tumor of mesenchymal origin that can occur in different anatomical locations, but is more common in the lung and liver, being rare in the central nervous system (CNS). The main challenge when finding this type of tumor in meninges is to make the differential diagnosis with metastatic neoplastic infiltration, granulomatous and infectious diseases. The ideal treatment is complete surgical resection, not requiring other complementary therapies due to its benign behavior. Case report: This work brings the case report of a 22-year-old young man who search medical attention due to headache and after extensive investigation presented the diagnosis of myofibroblastic tumor of the meninges. Conclusion: A comprehensive review of the literature on this type of tumor was carried out in this location, but with very few cases and papers written to date.

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.

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.

Osteoid osteoma is a benign tumor that accounts for roughly 10-12% of all benign bone forming tumors. This tumor generally occurs within the first three decades of life and occurs more commonly in males. This lesion is painful and is generally worse at night and has relief of symptoms with the use of NSAIDs. Osteoid osteoma is characterized by the production of osteoid surrounded by a rim of sclerotic bone. These lesions most commonly occur in long bones such as the proximal femur, however they can occur anywhere. Rarely, as with our patient, have these lesions been reported in the acetabulum.
