Hydatidosis is an endemic parasitic disease affecting in most cases the parenchymal organs. The involvement of the soft tissue is a rare pathology that, left untreated, can lead to rupture and potentially catastrophic anaphylaxis. In this article, we describe the case of a 42-year-old male who developed a subcutaneous hydatid cyst in the buttock as a solitary primary localization. Consequently, the patient underwent a successful surgical excision with uneventful post-operative recovery.

A case of angiosarcoma of the lower extremity was presented. This rare but highly malignant soft tissue tumor usually presents as a raised pigmented lesion. Wide surgical excision or amputation is the treatment of choice. Radiotherapy may offer some relief in cases that are inoperable.

Oral fibroma is the most common benign soft tissue tumor caused due to continuous trauma from sharp cusp of teeth or faulty dental restoration. It presents as sessile or occasionally pedunculated painless swelling which can be soft to firm in consistency. Its incidence occurs mostly during third to fifth decade and shows preference for female. Its occurrence corresponds with intraoral areas that are prone to trauma such as the tongue, buccal mucosa and labial mucosa, lip, gingiva. Even with conservative surgical excision, the lesion may recur until the source of continuous irritation persists. This article presents a case of large size oral fibroma on left alveolar region associated with ulceration along with literature review.

Urethral tumors are rare and aggressive. They usually affect men (2:1) and occur more commonly in white (85% of cases). Soft tissue sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that arise from embryonic mesoderm. It represents 1% of all cases of urinary tract malignancies and rarely primary affect the ureter. We report a case of male urethral sarcoma. To date, only two similar cases have been published in literature.

Hepatic hydatid cysts are benign cysts in the liver that are the result of parasites infection. They are caused by echinoccocus granulosis or multilocularis. They caused several symptoms like pain, obstructive jaundice, and sepsis. Hydatid cyst can be complicated to cystobiliary communication (CBC) which can be frank CBC or occult CBC. Medical, endoscopic, percutaneous and surgical treatments are different approaches to treat hydatid cyst. Here we report a case of hepatic hydatid cyst with cystobiliary communication, causing obstructive jaundice and treated with sphincterotomy and insertion of biliary stent through endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).

<p>We aimed to present a case with abdominal wall endometriosis following cesarean section in this case report. <br />A 32 year old 39 weeks pregnant woman with G2P1 was admitted to gynaecology clinic with abdominal lump and pain in the midline. Her physical examination included a hard and painful palpable subcutaneous mass of 4x5 cm size in the midline of the abdomen which was semisolid and irreducible. <br />Under general anesthesia, the mass on the rectus muscle was excised with the healthy tissue around with the diagnosis of endometriosis during cesarean section and the pathological diagnosis was reported as endometriosis.<br />Surgical excision is the best treatment method in abdominal wall endometriosis. <br /><br /></p>

Only 0.5 to 2% of hydatid cysts are localized in the skeleton and of these, 3 to 4% are found in the skull. In this paper, the authors report a case of primary hydatidosis involving the cranial vault revealed by a bulging mass of the forehead and symptoms of raised intracranial pressure that occurred in a 22-year-old woman who came from a rural area. Through this case and literature review, the authors analyse the epidemiological, clinical and radiological aspects of skull hydatidosis. They conclude that hydatid cyst should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any soft tissue swelling or osteolytic lesion in the scalp of patients living in endemic areas.

Mycobacterium marinum(M. marinum) is a ubiquitous waterborne organism that grows optimally at temperatures around 30°C. It is a nontuberculousMycobacteriumfound in nonchlorinated water with worldwide prevalence. It is the most common atypicalMycobacteriumthat causes opportunistic infection in humans.M. marinumcan cause superficial infections and localized invasive infections in humans, with the hands being the sites most frequently affected. It can cause skin lesions, which are either single, papulonodular lesions, confined to an extremity, or may resemble cutaneous sporotrichosis. This infection can also cause deeper infections including tenosynovitis, bursitis, arthritis, and osteomyelitis. Disseminated infections and visceral involvements have been reported in immunocompromised patients. We here report a case of severe deep soft tissue infection with necrotizing fasciitis and osteomyelitis of the left upper extremity (LUE) caused byM. marinumin an immunocompromised patient.
