Rare Benign Tumor

Odontogenic myxofibroma is a rare, benign tumor, which is considered to be the variant of odontogenic myxoma. It is locally infiltrative, aggressive and has high recurrence rate. Only 24 specific cases of myxofibroma have been reported since 1950 and only two cases have been reported with excessive calcifications till 2012. Here, we report a rare case of Odontogenic myxofibroma with calcifications in 53 years old female patient who presented with the chief complain of swelling. The final diagnosis of Odontogenic myxofibroma was established after histopathological and immunohistochemical examination.

Rare Benign Tumor

We report a rare case of a parotid oncocytoma in a 63-year-old woman. It is a rare benign tumor accounting for less than 1.5% of all salivary gland tumors. It is known as the parotid mitochondrioma because it is made of cells rich in mitochondria with granular cytoplasm. It is a rare entity poorly documented in the literature, and there are no pathognomonicsymptoms or imaging, which makes the diagnosis of this tumor challenging.Surgery is the main treatment, and the diagnosis is confirmed by the histological study of the specimen. Through this observation, and in light of the literature, we will underline the anatomoclinical and radiological peculiarities of this tumor, to induce clinicians to consider this histological type.

Surgical Treatments

Ameloblastoma is a rare benign tumor of odontogenic origin with local invasive characteristics and a high recurrence rate. Depending upon the location, size and the subtype of Ameloblastoma, surgical treatments, such as marginal or segmental resection, have traditionally been implemented, but some conservative surgical methods are also being introduced, including decompression, enucleation, or curettage. We are presenting a case of 35 years male with Ameloblastoma of his right body of the mandible. Presentation of the case, Surgical workup, and management are discussed.

We report the rare case of 65-year-old male patient with supratentorial hemangioblastoma and gigantic cyst of the left hemisphere of the brain without von Hippel-Lindau disease. Hemangioblastoma is a rare benign tumor classified as grade I by the WHO of the central nervous system of uncertain histogenesis. This neoplasm’s stroma consists of dense networks of thin-walled blood vessels of various calibers. About 140 cases of supratentorial localization of this type of tumor are presented in the world literature. We have given a fairly complete clinical, neuroradiological and histological picture that allows one to differentiate hemangioblastoma from other histological structures. Promising modalities in the treatment of patients with this pathology when it is impossible to perform total tumor resection are considered.

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.

ABSTRACT Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a slowly growing benign tumor with a high recurrence rate. It is a common occurrence in the maxilla. A nodular mass, either pedunculated or sessile, usually emanating from the interdental papilla. Complete excision of the lesion, including the periosteum, is important to prevent recurrence. Peripheral ossifying fibroma occurring in the mandible at the age of 50 in the posterior mandible is an occasional entity. This article describes a case of a female patient with a slowly growing pedunculated tumor in the posterior mandible, which was diagnosed as POF.

Abstract Introduction: Renal hemangioblastoma (RH) is a very rare benign tumor. Hemangioblastoma most commonly occur in the central nervous system (CNS) and only few cases of RH have been reported as they occur most commonly as asymptomatic masses found incidentally. Mixed Mullerian Tumor (MMT) of the uterus is a rarer and aggressive form of uterine malignancy. The detection of two primary rare tumors incidentally is a rare entity. Case presentation: A 50 years female presented with abnormal uterine bleeding which on endometrial sampling was diagnosed as a rare variety of endometrial cancer i.e., MMT or uterine carcinosarcoma. On preoperative imaging, a renal mass was also detected which was highly vascular and was mimicking Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) was done from the renal mass to differentiate between RCC and metastasis but it showed only blood cells. Patient underwent staging laparotomy for endometrial cancer and frozen section examination of the renal mass which was inconclusive with few atypical cells and thus patient underwent radical nephrectomy too. Histopathological examination revealed it to be a RH which is a very rare benign tumor. Discussion: RH is a rare benign tumor which doesn’t require any treatment in majority of the patients. Only 26 cases of RH outside the CNS have been reported till date. MMT is a rare aggressive uterine tumor with an incidence of 1-2 % of all uterine neoplasms, which metastasizes early and thus early identification and treatment is the key. RH needs to be differentiated from RCC to avoid over treatment. Morphological findings are similar in both, preoperative FNAC, PET scan and intraoperative frozen section can be utilized to differentiate in between two in well circumcised tumors and in high suspicion. Occurrence of renal mass as an incidental finding in the preoperative work up of uterine malignancy directed us to the differentials of metastasis or another histologically distinct primary tumor. The presence of two rare primary tumors i.e., RH and MMT in the same patient which are unrelated is a rare entity.

Abstract Introduction Renal hemangioblastoma (RH) is a very rare benign tumor. Hemangioblastoma most commonly occur in the central nervous system (CNS) and only few cases of RH have been reported in literature. They occur most commonly as asymptomatic masses found incidentally. Mixed Mullerian Tumor (MMT) of the uterus is a rarer and aggressive form of uterine malignancy. The detection of two primary rare tumors incidentally is a rare entity. Case presentation A 50 years female patient presented with abnormal uterine bleeding which on endometrial sampling was diagnosed as a rare variety of endometrial cancer i.e., MMT or uterine carcinosarcoma. On preoperative Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a renal mass was also detected which was highly vascular and was mimicking Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) was done from the renal mass to differentiate between RCC and metastasis but it showed only blood cells. Patient underwent staging laparotomy for endometrial cancer and frozen section examination of the renal mass. Frozen section report was inconclusive with few atypical cells and thus patient underwent radical nephrectomy too. Histopathological examination revealed it to be a RH which is a very rare benign tumor. Discussion Only 14 cases of RH outside the CNS have been reported till date. Occurrence of renal mass as an incidental finding in the preoperative work up of uterine malignancy directed us to the differentials of metastasis or another histologically distinct primary tumor. RH may mimic RCC radiologically. To correctly diagnose RH is important because sporadic RH does not require further treatment and the prognosis is much better than that of RCC. MMT which compromise 1-2% of all uterine neoplasms have higher chance of metastasis than endometroid variety. Conclusion Renal hemangioblastoma is a rare benign tumor which doesn’t require any treatment in majority of the patients. Mixed Mullerian tumor is a rare aggressive uterine tumor which metastasizes early, henceforth early identification and treatment is the key. RH needs to be differentiated from RCC to avoid over treatment. Morphological findings are similar in both, preoperative FNAC, PET scan and intraoperative frozen section can be utilized to differentiate in between two in well circumcised tumors and in high suspicion. The presence of two rare primary tumors i.e., RH and MMT in the same patient which are unrelated is a rare entity.

Rare Benign Tumor

ABSTRACTNeurofibromas (NF) are benign tumors of neural origin, of which roughly 90% appear as solitary lesions. They are classified into cutaneous, subcutaneous, and plexiform subtypes. Plexiform neurofibromas are the least common variant and usually are pathognomonic for NF I. Here, we present a very rare case of isolated plexiform neurofibroma with a painless enlarging mass of the tongue of an 11-year-old girl. This rare benign tumor has the potential for malignant transformation, and the diagnosis was difficult owing to the patient's age and to the insidious clinical presentation. The present case is a diffuse isolated plexiform neurofibroma of the tongue that was not associated with neurofibromatosis that was treated with intraoral surgery.
