Adnexal Tumor

A case of 15year old female presented with lesion over back since childhood, with occasional bleeding and oozing from lesion without any associated systemic complaints. There were multiple verrucous coalescing papules forming plaque with overlying erosion present over left lower back- diagnosed provisionally as angiokeratoma circumscriptum and was biopsied. Histopathology revealed findings consistent with Syringocystadenoma papilliferum. Surgical excision was done and closed with rotation flap. Syringocystadenoma is benign cutaneous adnexal tumor presenting clinically with many morphologies such as warty papules, nodules, plaques with oozing of serous material. Lesion is usually seen in head and neck area in most cases however can also occur on extremities, buttocks, anogenital region. It is characterized by multiple invaginations from skin surface in association with hair follicles lined by cuboidal to columnar epithelium on luminal aspect and myoepithelial cells on outside. There is papillary architecture and dermal ductal component.

Background: Myxopapillary ependymoma (MPE) with anaplastic features is extremely rare. There are very few such case reports in the medical literature. Case Description: A 23-year-old female presented with lower back pain, and both urinary and fecal dysfunction. The patient underwent gross total surgical excision of the MR documented expansile intrasacral tumor. The histology was compatible with a MPE containing anaplastic features. Conclusion: The medical literature contains a few comparable cases of subcutaneous sacrococcygeal MPE with anaplastic components. Here, however, we have a young female with an anaplastic intrasacral MPE treated with gross total surgical excision.

We describe a case of Syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) with keratinizing squamous epithelium in a 26-year-old female presenting with a dark brown to black nodule on her forehead. After surgical excision, the specimen was examined immunohistochemically using antibodies against cytokeratin (CK) 1, 8, 10, 14, 17, 18 and 19. Within the keratinizing squamous epithelium, CK1, 10, 14 and 17 were present, whereas the other CKs were absent. Based on CK expression, keratinizing squamous epithelium in SCAP seems to differentiate towards the infrainfundibulum.

Introduction: Trichilemmal cysts (TCs) are common skin lesions that occur in hairy areas. A TC involving a fingertip has not been previously described in the literature. We herein report a case of a TC occupying a fingertip region. Case presentation: A 43-year-old woman presented with a 1.5 × 1.5 cm nodular lesion on the third fingertip. The lesion was completely excised, and histopathological examination revealed a TC. Conclusion: TCs may involve atypical locations, such as fingertips, where there are no hair follicles. After surgical excision, a careful histopathological examination should be performed to differentiate TCs from proliferating pilar tumors.

Syringocystadenoma papilliferum is a rare benign adnexal tumor of apocrine or eccrine glands. It is a childhood tumor with a relatively higher incidence at birth. The common sites of occurrence are the face and scalp. The propensity of the nodular lesion is towards the trunk, but here in our case, we present a case of nodular syringocystadenoma papilliferum of the scalp. The tumor can arise de novo or from pre-existing naevus sebaceous. The tumor rarely has a malignant course, most often basal cell carcinoma. Herein, we present an adolescent with the nodular type of syringocystadenoma papilliferum of the scalp, treated with surgical excision.

Clinical Awareness

Objectives: Cerebriform intradermal nevus and giant congenital blue nevi are rarely reported melanocytic nevi with clinical and histopathologic similarities. Both are known to produce cutis verticis gyrata. We report a significantly large occipital scalp congenital blue nevus with secondary cutis verticis gyrata. The aim of this report is to increase clinical awareness of this entity, highlight histopathologic and mutational features of cerebriform intradermal nevi and giant congenital blue nevi, and stress the importance of clinicopathologic correlation for diagnosis. Methods: Case report and review of the literature. Results: A 20-year-old Asian male presented with a long-standing, large (20 cm × 30 cm), exophytic tumor at the occipital scalp and posterior neck. The skin overlying the lesion was arranged in thick folds resembling the surface of the brain, devoid of hair follicles, and discolored by salt-and-pepper pattern hyperpigmentation. After correlating the clinical and histopathologic findings, we diagnosed giant congenital blue nevus with secondary cutis verticis gyrata. Staged surgical excision was performed with subsequent treatment for hypertrophic scarring and occipital alopecia. Conclusions: Cerebriform intradermal nevus and giant congenital blue nevus have overlapping histologic and clinical features. Head and neck surgeons should be aware that nomenclature of these tumors is subjective and often imprecise. Diagnosis requires correlation of clinical findings, patient history, and histopathology. Surgical excision is advised due to rare malignant transformation potential.

Syringocystadenoma papilliferum is a very rare, benign adnexal tumor that originates from the apocrine sweat glands. Herein, we report a 25-year-old male who presented with a 10-year history of an asymptomatic slowly growing skin lesion on his face. Skin examination revealed a solitary rounded 3 × 3 cm erythematous plaque with central crustation on the right side of his face. Punch skin biopsy was taken from the lesion. The epidermis showed downward papillomatous extensions. The dermis showed multiple epithelial sheets and dilated ducts that were lined by columnar cells. On the basis of the above clinicopathological findings, the diagnosis of syringocystadenoma papilliferum was made. The patient was reassured and referred to a surgeon for surgical excision of the lesion.

<p class="BodyText1">Cylindroma is a rare, benign adnexal tumor of the skin. The most frequent tumor location is the head, especially the scalp, and neck area. This type of tumor can occur as solitary or multiple tumors. Tumor diagnosis is relatively easy and is based on clinical findings and biopsy. The therapy of choice is surgical excision with parts or entire scalp excision depending on whether it is solitary or multiple tumor. We presented a 65-year-old male patient with multiple scalp tumors of 0.5–6 cm in diameter. An entire scalp excision was performed and the postoperative wounds (i.e., the periosteum of the skull and the fascia galea) were covered with free skin graft of partial thickness. In order to prevent profuse bleeding, we placed a tourniquet around his head and performed bilateral temporary ligature of temporal artery prior to surgery. During the nine-year follow-up, there were no new tumors or tumor recurrence reported.</p>

Gridhrasi (Sciatica) is a disorder in which low back pain is found, that spreads through the hip, to the back of the thigh and down the inside of the leg. Mechanical low back pain (LBP) remains the second most common symptom related reason for seeing a physician. 85% of total population will experience an episode of mechanical LBP at some point during their lifetime. Fortunately, the LBP resolves for the vast majority within 2-4 weeks. There are many causes for low back pain, however true sciatica is a symptom of inflammation or compression of the sciatica nerve. The sciatica nerve carries impulses between nerve roots in the lower back and the muscles and nerve of the buttocks, thighs and lower legs. Compression of a nerve root often occurs as a result of damage to one of the discs between the vertebrae. In some cases, sciatic pain radiate from other nerves in the body. This is called referred pain. Pain associated with sciatica often is severe, sharp and shooting. It may be accompanied by other symptom, such as numbness, tingling, weakness and sensitivity to touch. There is only conservative treatment giving short term relief in pain or surgical intervention with side effect. But these are not successful and therefore those who are suffering from this are always in search of result oriented remedy. Walking distance and SLR test were taken for assessment parameter, VAS score was adopted for pain. Before treatment patient was not able to walk even 4 to 5 steps due to severe pain, was brought on stretcher and his SLR was 30° of right side. After 22 days of treatment he was able to walk up to 500 meters without any difficulty, SLR was changed to 60° and patient had got 80 % relief in pain. This case report showed that Ayurvedic protocol is potent and safe in the treatment of Gridhrasi.

This case report describes the case of a 37-year-old man that noticed an intrascrotal right mass with 1 month of evolution. During physical exam presented with a large mass at the inferior portion of the right testicle, clearly separated from the testicle, with a tender consistency and mobile. An ultrasound was performed that showed a solid and subcutaneous nodular lesion, extra testicular, heterogeneous, measuring 7.2 cm. Pelvic magnetic resonance imageMRI showed a lesion compatible with a lipoma. The patient was subjected to surgical excision of the lesion by scrotal access, having histology revealed a lipoblastoma (LB) of the scrotum. Histological diagnosis was obtained by microscopic characteristics (well-circumscribed fatty neoplasm) and immunohistochemistry (stains for CD34, S100 protein and PLAG1 were positive; stains for MDM2 and CDK4 were negative). LB is extremely rare after adolescence in any location, being this first described case of intrascrotal LB described in adulthood.
