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.

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. Osteoblastoma is a rare benign tumor. This tumor is characterized by osteoid and bone formation with the presence of numerous osteoblasts. The lesion is more frequently seen in long bones and rarely involves maxilla and mandible. Due to its clinical and histological similarity with other bone tumors such as osteoid osteoma and fibro-osseous lesions, osteoblastoma presents a diagnostic dilemma.Case Report. Very few cases of osteoblastomas involving maxillofacial region have been reported in the literature. This case report involves osteoblastoma involving right maxilla in an 18-year-old male patient. Following detailed clinical examination, radiological interpretation, and histopathological diagnosis, surgical excision was performed. The patient was followed up for a period of 3 years and was disease free.Summary and Conclusion. Benign osteoblastoma involving jaw bones is a rare tumor. There is a close resemblance of this tumor with other lesions such as fibro-osseous lesions and odontogenic tumors and thus faces a diagnostic challenge. Surgical excision with a long-term follow-up gives good prognosis to this lesion—Benign Osteoblastoma.

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.

ABSTRACT Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common benign tumor of the salivary glands and has both epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. It most commonly arises from the parotid or submandibular glands. Rarely, it arises from the minor salivary glands. We report here a case of pleomorphic adenoma arising from the soft palate and both sides of anterior tonsillar pillars in a 75-year-old man. This patient was presenting painless slow growing large swelling in the soft palate over 20 years causing mechanical obstruction of airway and food. The entire tumor mass was excised along with overlying mucosa. How to cite this article Swain SK, Sahu MC, Tripathy R.

Hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma is a rare benign tumor. We present an unusual case of a fetal abdominal cyst, later diagnosed histopathologically to be mesenchymal hamartoma of liver. The organ of origin was indeterminate on both prenatal and postnatal ultrasounds. As there are no specific sonological findings, whenever a large multicystic fetal abdominal cyst is seen, mesenchymal hamartoma should be considered as a possibility.

Introduction : The odontogenic myxoma is a rare benign tumor of the maxilla, whose clinical and radiological manifestations are variable and nonspecific and can be confused with other radiolucent lesions. Its origin would be the embryonic mesenchyme of the dental follicle.Case report : We report the case of odontogenic myxoma of the right maxilla, discovered by chance in a 25 year old patient. Clinically, the patient had painless, firm on palpation, swelling of the right maxilla, impeding chewing and speech. Facial CT-scan showed an expansive osteolytic process blowing the right maxilla off. A biopsy was in favor of an odontogenic myxoma. The diagnosis was based on clinical, radiological and especially anatomopathological arguments.Conclusion : The local aggressiveness of the odontogenic myxoma and its high rate of recurrence justify a radical treatment beyond the lesion’s boundaries and thus imply a postoperative repair.

AbstractHemangioma of synovium is a rare benign tumor that can arise from any surface lined by synovium. Intra-articular synovial hemangioma is most common in the knee joint. The diagnosis is difficult as the signs and symptoms are nonspecific. We hereby report a hitherto unreported case of synovial hemangioma of knee overlying posterior cruciate ligament, its MRI findings and discuss the appropriate management

Mesectodermal leiomyoma of the ciliary body is a rare benign tumor, showing both neurogenic and myogenic characteristics. This tumor typically shows predilection for women of reproductive age. Because it is almost impossible to clinically distinguish this tumor from malignant melanoma, unnecessary eye enucleations have been unfortunately performed. Herein, we report a case of mesectodermal leiomyoma of the ciliary body in a young Japanese woman. She was referred to our hospital due to a slow-growing mass in her left iris. A malignant tumor could not be clinically ruled out and surgery with intraoperative pathology consultation was performed. Intraoperative frozen section diagnosis was a benign tumor with neurogenic features, and a simple excision of the tumor was performed. Histologically, the tumor was composed of diffuse growth of spindle cells with fibrillary indistinctive cytoplasm. Immunohistochemical examination showed diffuse positive staining of α-smooth muscle actin, h-caldesmon, calponin, and CD56. Scattered tumor cells were weakly positive for desmin. Neither melanocytic markers nor neural markers except for CD56 were positive. We diagnosed this tumor as mesectodermal leiomyoma. Mesectodermal leiomyoma is rare and often misdiagnosed as malignant melanoma. To avoid overtreatment, a correct preoperative diagnosis is essential.
