Gastric melanomas are usually metastatic, and primary is almost rare entity. Present case is a rare malignant melanoma of the gastric region with barely reported cases in the literature. A 65 year old male presented with pain abdomen and melena He was evaluated with relevant investigation. UGI endoscopy and PETCT shows large polypoidal irregular gastric mass in the proximal curvature extending upto gastroesophageal junction. Endoscopic biopsy a ulcero-infiltrating tumour, Individual cells are large, round, having moderately pleomorphic, hyperchromatic nuclei with prominent eosinophilic nucleoli and moderate eosinophilic cytoplasm. Immunohistochemistry of S100 and HMB45 was positive and negative for CK7 and CK20. Early diagnosis of primary gastric melanoma allows for better prognosis of the patient from the right intervention.

Rare Case Report

Polycystic (dysgenetic) disease of the salivary glands is a rare entity that has only recently been described in the literature. The disease is more commonly seen in females and majority of the cases have presented as bilateral parotid gland swellings. This case presenting in a 21-year-old male is the first of this unusual entity involving solely the minor salivary gland on the lower lip. This case report highlights the importance for the clinician to be aware of this differential diagnosis, when treating an innocuous lesion like a mucocele.

Congenital facial palsy is a very rare entity with an incidence of 2 per 1000 live births. It can be congenital, traumatic associated with birth trauma in the form of forceps delivery or developmental. We present the case of a 1-year-old girl who presented to the eye department of our tertiary care hospital with a deviation of face to the right side since birth along with watering of left eye and difficulty in taking feeds. There was a history of forceps-assisted vaginal delivery; a provisional diagnosis of congenital facial palsy was done with the probable cause of trauma.

Different cellular constituents of the central nervous system occurring in encephaloceles or neuroglial heterotopias (NGHs) have been reported, but the ependymal morphology has rarely been described in the previous literature, let alone the related histological images. To determine the ependymal morphology in encephaloceles or NGHs, we report a rare case of encephalocele with numerous ependymal components. Radiological examination showed that a 6.2 × 3.1 cm nasal dorsum mass-forming encephalocele in a 24-year-old woman, who had an intracranial connection through a frontal bone defect. This patient underwent a resection of the encephalocele under nasal endoscopy and a reconstruction of the cranial base. The patient had a good prognosis with no postoperative complications during follow-up. Microscopically, the ependymal components entrapped in a collagenized background showed numerous slit-like spaces lined by columnar cells with abundant palely eosinophilic cytoplasm and apical surface microvilli. With immunohistochemistry, in addition to the expression of EMA along with the slit-like spaces, GFAP and S100 were diffusely expressed in the slit-like spaces. In conclusion, the ependymal component in either encephaloceles or NGHs may present slit-like spaces arranged in an anastomosing pattern. The unusual morphology of ependyma continues to be underrecognized by pathologists and is easily misdiagnosed; therefore, an awareness of the morphological change in ependyma is necessary.

Duodenal Tuberculosis

Gastroduodenal tuberculosis is uncommon even in parts of world where tuberculosis is endemic and accounts for 2.3 % of abdominal tuberculosis. We present here a case of duodenal tuberculosis who presented with vomiting, pain abdomen and weight loss. Duodenoscopy revealed mucosal ulceration and nodularity with marked enlarged and erythematous surrounding folds. Histopathology of duodenum showed features of tuberculosis.

Abstract Osteomas are slow growing bone tumours and are often asymptomatic. Rarely, they can be present in the temporal bone—only few cases had been reported, with an incidence of 0.1–1%. We describe a case of an osteoma of the temporal bone (retromastoid) found in a 40 year old female, who presented with a slow growing swelling behind the right ear for 9 years. Diagnosis was made on non-contrast computed topography (CT) of the skull. Treatment is indicated in symptomatic cases or cosmetic reasons. Screening colonoscopy and genetic testing for familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and Gardner’s syndrome are advised.

Abstract Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma (AFS) is a rare, aggressive malignant odontogenic tumor. AFS is seen most frequently in second and third decades of life. We are reporting a case of a low grade AFS in a 21-year-old male complaining of a painless swelling in the right side of the maxilla. The patient was treated with surgical excision followed by radiotherapy, which is considered the most effective approach for most of soft tissue sarcomas. AFS has a high-reported recurrence rate (up to 37%); therefore, long-term surveillance for recurrence is crucial.

AbstractIn this rare case, found during routine dissection of head and neck in North Bengal Medical College on the right side of the neck, common carotid artery bifurcated at a higher level than usual and 1.25 cm below the bifurcation, gave a common origin of lingual and superior thyroid artery from its medial side (thyorolingual trunk). No such anomaly was noted on the left side. This type of combination of variations has important clinical implications.

ABSTRACT Schwannomas or neurilemmomas are benign, encapsulated tumor arising from nerve sheath cells. Intracranial Schwannomas are most common with rare occurrence in the extracranial region. It rarely occurs in the floor of the mouth with very few cases reported. We present a rare case report of Schwannoma of the floor of the mouth, thereby highlighting the consideration of this rare entity as one of the differential diagnosis in cases who present to us with swelling of the floor of the mouth and also the importance of immunohistochemistry in coming to the diagnosis.

<p>Epidermoid carcinoma is a frequent tumor in the upper aerodiodestive tracts, and depending on its location and tumor, nodes, metastases (TNM) stage, its therapy and prognosis vary enormously. Its location in the hypopharynx is rare, and in children or young adolescents, this location is extremely rare; The incriminated causes and the pathophysiology of the development of these tumors at this age remain a mystery. We present the case of a young patient of 13 years old, followed for squamous cell carcinoma of the right piriform sinus, with contralateral synchronous tonsil localization, and right lateral cervical lymphadenopathy fixed at 5 cm. In the absence of existing guidelines on the management of this type of location at this age, a multi-disciplinary meeting was necessary to decide on the management of this difficult case at this age.</p>
