Background. The coexistence of a well-differentiated liposarcoma (atypical lipomatous tumor) and benign smooth muscle component in a single soft tissue neoplasm is extremely rare. Case report. Histologic and immunohistochemical characteristics of tumor, which represented the reccurence of a retroperitoneal atypical lipoma in a 50-year-old female patient are presented in this paper. The tumor represented the recurrence of a retroperitoneal atypical lipoma. Lipomatous component consisted of a mixture of lipoma-like and sclerosing variant of well-differentiated liposarcoma. Characteristically, the heterologous smooth muscle differentiation was manifested as a macroscopically visible nodular growth in the form of a leiomyoma within the adipocytic component. It consisted of intersecting fascicles of spindle cells, which lacked mitoses and significant atypia, and were immunopositive for smooth muscle markers. Conclusion. This case of well-differentiated liposarcoma with benign smooth muscle is the first reported tumor of retroperitoneal localization. It is also the first one to exhibit the heterologous smooth muscle component as a distinct leiomyoma.

Liposarcoma is categorized as a soft tissue sarcoma and most commonly appears in the lower extremities and rarely in the foot during adulthood. We present a very rare case report of a primary well-differentiated liposarcoma arising in the foot on a 60-year-old female. Marginal resection of the tumor with metatarsal ray amputation was eventually performed. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful without recurrence 5 years after the original operation. The authors review the literature and also report on the low incidence of this tumor arising in the foot.

Giant cell fibroma is a form of fibrous tumour affecting the oral mucosa. Its occurrence is relatively rare in paediatric patients. Clinically it is presented as a painless, sessile, or pedunculated growth which is usually confused with other fibrous lesions like irritation fibromas. Here we are presenting a case where a seven-year-old male patient reported with a painless nodular growth in relation to lingual surface of 41 and 42. Considering the size and location of the lesion, excisional biopsy was performed and sent for histopathological analysis which confirmed the lesion as giant cell fibroma.

Rare Case Report

Leiomyoma though a common entity encountered in our daily practise, its occurrence in breast is extremely uncommon. There are a very few reported cases of leiomyomas occurring in breast parenchyma. This tumour clinically simulate commonly occurring tumours of breast. This case report is of such a case of a mesenchymal neoplasm occurring in breast of a woman of child bearing age. The histopathological diagnosis requires careful differentiation from lesions that have smooth muscle proliferation, especially leiomyosarcoma. The most commonly performed treatment is resection of the lesion with free margins. Although breast leiomyoma is rare, it should be considered among the differential diagnoses for breast nodules of benign appearance.
