Inflammatory pseudotumour (IPT) is a rare benign solid tumor in adults and children. The prevalence, etiology and pathogenesis of this condition are still uncertain. Despite the use of modern laboratory techniques and imaging, it is often difficult to make the diagnosis of IPT. Besides, occasionally the nonspecific morphological appearance and clinical presentation of the mass may mimic other more common primary or secondary neoplasms. IPT is commonly encountered in the lung and mediastinum. Other sites include abdomen (liver, pancreas, stomach, omentum), retroperitoneum, pelvis (bladder) and extremities in children. We report a rare case of gastric inflammatory pseudotumour in a 65-year-old female patient. Clinical presentations and its management along with review of literatures are presented.

Gorlin-Golts syndrome is a genetic determined disease, characterized by multisystem features and associated with different malignancies, which are more aggressive with very unfavorable prognosis. By literature data this syndrome is a rare pathology. Observation and treatment of patients with Gorlin-Golts syndrome include syndromic correction of clinical presentations and detailed observation for early malignancies detection. In the current issue a survey of modern literature about Gorlin-Golts syndrome in children and clinical case of patient sent to Federal State Budgetary Institution» N. N. Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology «of the Ministry of Health for malignancy diagnosis are presented. By global and own clinical experience about Gorlin-Golts syndrome it is necessary a genetic verification and make us perform a multidisciplinary control for such patient health with obligatory examination and observation of pediatric oncologist.

Primary cutaneous plasmacytosis is a rare disorder. Cases have been mostly reported from Japan. Here, a rare case of cutaneous plasmacytosis with calcium deposits was reported from southern part of India. A 47-year-old male patient presented with solitary asymptomatic nodule on the left leg present for two decades. Skin biopsy showed sheets of plasma cells in mid-dermis with bony trabeculae extending upto subcutis which was unremarkable. Serum electrophoresis did not reveal any M band and Bence Jones protein was absent in urine. Radiograph of the left leg showed focal lesion with calcific areas in soft tissue shadow with probability of calcification. Novelty of the case lies in its rare clinical presentation in this population with histopathological documentation.

Renal angiomyolipomas (AMLs) are the most common benign tumours of the kidney that occur sporadically in 80% of the patients and are seen associated with genetic conditions such as tuberous sclerosis in rest of the patients. The diagnosis of renal AML pre-operatively have been made easier with the advent of good imaging modalities. The management of these tumours depends on factors such as size, clinical presentation, extent of parenchymal involvement and ranges from a wait and watch strategy to a radical nephrectomy. Herewith, we reported of a giant renal AML who presented with complaints of lump in abdomen with headache and palpitations. She was diagnosed to have a giant renal AML on imaging. The patient was managed with radical nephrectomy after renal AML. A brief case report with review literature was presented here.
