Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) is the most prevalent clinical form of leishmaniasis. CL is difficult for the clinicians to diagnose because of the rarity of the disease and non-specific presentation. As CL is rare and given the limitation of available diagnostic modalities in a resource poor setting, diagnosis can be confusing.

Anaplastic large cell lymphoma is a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The morphological diversity with which its anaplastic cells confer make the diagnosis of this hematological entity extremely challenging to the pathologist in a resource poor setting. We present a case of a 35-year-old male with a nasopharyngeal mass and cervical lymphadenopathy and the adversities faced by out otolaryngology department with obtaining the diagnosis of ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma.

Both Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) are relatively common in childhood. While the former is congenital, the latter is usually acquired. Diagnosis and thorough profiling of patient with ALL remains a great challenge in most resource poor settings including our hospital. Despite the high prevalence of these conditions in our environment, there is no previously reported case of the two coexisting in an individual based on our literature search. We report a ten-year old boy in whom ALL unmasked the diagnosis of VSD and non-availability of diagnostic facilities prevented exploring any possible pathogenetic relationship between the two conditions in case of its existence.
