Dermoid cysts are extremely rare in the urinary bladder and pose a diagnostic dilemma to both the Urologist and the Histopathologist. Only a few cases were found documented and published in literature. We present a case of dermoid cyst in the urinary bladder presenting as a bladder mass which is very rare tumour. Diagnosis of this case was made cystoscopically and confirmed by histopathologically. Complete excision of mass was possible by endoscopic resection.

Introduction: Cavernous hemangioma accounts for 0.6% of bladder tumors. We present a rare case Case Presentation: A 3-year-old girl presented with intravaginal swelling, dysuria, and hematuria. She received 26 cycles of VAC for embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. Histopathology confirmed CH. Conclusion: CH should be considered in the differentials of childhood genitourinary masses.

Urinary bladder leiomyoma is a rare tumour accounting for less than 0.5% of all urinary bladder tumours. Till now, less than 250 cases were documented with variable sizes, most of them were less than 10 cm in maximum diameter. Here we present a 68- year-old female patient with urinary bladder giant leiomyoma measuring about 13 cm. She presented with right loin pain. Postcontrast computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis revealed a large posterolateral right-sided urinary bladder mass with moderate right hydroureteronephrosis. It was managed by partial cystectomy. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course. Postoperative pathological examination of the specimen confirmed giant leiomyoma of the urinary bladder.

Introduction: Sarcomatoid carcinoma describes a biphasic malignancy with features of epithelial and mesenchymal differentiation. It rarely occurs at the urinary bladder but is usually aggressive and associated with poor prognosis. Case Presentation: We here report a case of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the urinary bladder of a 48 years old man with intermittent painless haematuria over an 18-month period. Imaging examination showed intraluminal protrusion of a tumour on the right posterior wall of the bladder. Diagnosis: The patient was initially diagnosed as a right bladder mass. Interventions: The patient underwent two rounds of transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) and pathological analysis suggested the tumours were invasive urothelial carcinomas. Radical cystectomy was later performed, and pathological analysis suggested a stage T4 sarcomatoid carcinoma. The patient received 5 cycles of gemcitabine and cisplatin. Outcome: The patient died of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome 8.5 months after the diagnosis of sarcomatoid carcinoma. Conclusion: Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the urinary bladder is a highly malignant disease, and the histopathological characteristics are distinct. The diagnosis, surgical management, and chemotherapy of this patient are discussed together with previous cases reported in the literature

Background. Primary peritoneal ependymoma is an exceedingly rare tumour with only four cases reported in the literature. It typically follows an indolent disease course. We describe a rare case of metastatic primary peritoneal ependymoma which was treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy resulting in prolonged survival to date for 10 years. Case Presentation. The patient was a 23-year-old female on presentation. She presented with right upper quadrant pain associated with an abdominal mass. Computed tomography demonstrated a large mass displacing the liver. Debulking surgery was done revealing a tumour arising from the peritoneum as well as multiple metastatic pleural and peritoneal nodules. Pathology was consistent with primary peritoneal ependymoma. The patient was then treated with multiple lines of chemotherapy containing etoposide as the backbone. She also received palliative radiotherapy to the thoracic metastases with good and durable response. Conclusion. We reported a rare case of metastatic primary peritoneal ependymoma. Etoposide containing the chemotherapy regimen is effective in the treatment of peritoneal ependymoma. Radiotherapy is also effective for palliation of local symptoms with durable response.

Background: Leiomyoma is a benign smooth muscle mesenchymal tumor, usually of uterine origin but may rarelydevelop in the vaginal walls. Case presentation: A case of 40-year-old para 5+0 woman with anterior vaginal wall leiomyoma is reported. Thepresentation mimics that of uterovaginal prolapse and hence presents a diagnostic challenge. The unusualappearance of the protrusion, failure to reduce at any time even while lying down, and complete absence of urinarysymptoms raised the suspicion of a rare case. The diagnosis was made through examination under anesthesia,cystoscopy, and biopsy. Histological examination of the biopsy specimen confirmed vaginal wall leiomyoma. Thepatient had complete excision of the mass without any complications. Discussion and Conclusion: Vaginal wall leiomyoma is a rare benign vaginal lesion that can easily bemisdiagnosed. Diagnosis involves critical clinical evaluation, especially during pelvic examinations. Any vaginalprotrusion should be approached with a high index of suspicion, especially in patients of reproductive age.

Sinonasal inverted schneiderian papilloma (ISP) is a rare tumour, which almost exclusively arises from the mucosa lining, the nasal cavity and the paranasal sinuses. The tumour in its early stages presents as an asymptomatic mass, which may be discovered during routine examination. Large lesions usually measure a few millimetres to centimetres in size and show symptoms such as nasal blockade, recurrent sinusitis, postnasal drip, anosmia, epistaxis, facial pain and headache. Lesion presenting as a large oral mass is extremely rare and may cause diagnostic dilemma, resulting in misdiagnosis. This report describes a rare case of ISP presenting as large intraoral lesion, with wide area of facial skeletal involvement. Diagnosis and management of the pathology has also been highlighted.

Abstract Background Urinary bladder masses are uncommon in the pediatric age group and pose a diagnostic challenge, often necessitating histopathological differentiation and confirmation. An unusual mimic of neoplastic bladder mass is inflammatory pseudotumor, and timely identification and diagnosis of which prevents undue patient stress and radical treatment. Case presentation We present a case of a 7-year-old female child who presented with hematuria, and a urinary bladder mass was detected on ultrasound which was further characterized by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diagnosed as an inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT) on histopathology. Conclusions This case report describes the imaging features of IPT along with a list of differential diagnoses emphasizing the need for radiologists to be aware of this surprising and rare entity.
