Although inguinal hernias are a common finding in premature infants, it is usually caused by the protrusion of the bowel through a persistent patent processus vaginalis. However, acute appendicitis in association with an inguinal hernia in this age group is a rare finding. This type of hernia is referred to as an Amyand hernia.

Abstract Posttraumatic Chronic ossified extradural hematomas are rare entities. Natural absorption of EDH does not occurs due to calcification. Chronic ossified EDH is frequently present in paediatric age group. Careful regular follow-up is mandatory in conservatively managed case of EDH in children. We report a rare case of Posttraumatic Chronic ossified extradural hematomas in a 10-years old girl presenting six years after head injury with right temporal region swelling.

<p>Human cysticercosis is a common tropical disease which is caused by Cysticercus cellulosae, larvae of a tapeworm, Taenia solium. Cysticercosis can involve any tissue in the body; the most common affected sites are central nervous system, subcutaneous tissue, eyes, and muscles. Extensive intramuscular Cysticercosis without any other systemic involvement is a very rare finding. Here, we report a case of intramuscular Cysticercosis incidentally diagnosed by plain radiographs in a 51 year-old man who presented with osteoarthritis right knee joint and Cysticercosis was an incidental finding.</p>

Amyand's hernia is a rare form of an inguinal hernia (less than 1% of inguinal hernias) which occurs when the appendix is a part of hernial sac. Because of anatomical position of the appendix, it is most commonly found in the right sided hernial sac and it can also be accompanied by the caecum and/or right colon. In rare case, Amyand’s hernia can appear on the left side also. Here we report a case of left sided amyand’s hernia with acute perforated appendicitis in a 58 years old male patient at GMERS hospital, Dharpur, Patan, Gujarat, India.

Myxoid variant of chondrosarcoma is an uncommon potentially lethal malignant tumor which is even rare in pediatric age group. In the present paper, we report one such case of intermediate grade myxoid chondrosarcoma of left side of maxilla in a 12-year-old girl. The present case had a firm, painless, and lobulated growth in premolar-molar region which was associated with bicortical expansion. Maxillofacial imaging showed ill-defined radiolucency with displaced maxillary molars. Osteolytic changes were evident with the alveolus and walls of maxillary sinus. Owing to the age of the patient, surgical excision was selected as the modality of management followed by postoperative radiotherapy. This report encompasses the entire gamut of clinicopathological, radiological, and treatment modalities employed for chondrosarcoma.

Sinus Histiocytosis/Rosai-Dorfman Disease (RDD) are benign, rare proliferative disorder caused by over production and accumulation of specific type of white blood cell (Phagocytic Histiocyte) in the lymph nodes of the body. Here, lymphadenopathy mostly painless and commonly found in the neck (cervical) but  may occur in other areas of the body such as skin, lung, central nervous system, kidney (less than 5%). Predominantly it affects the young age group of children, adolescents or young adults. In spite of spontaneous remissions, treatment strategies can be different according to involvement and severity (RDD-  Seldom life threatening disease).

A hydrocele of canal of Nuck is a rare condition seen in females, commonly in the pediatric age group. The canal of Nuck is an extension of peritoneum into the inguinal canal through the deep ring, analogous to the processus vaginalis in males. Incomplete proximal obliteration and collection of serous fluid in the sac leads to the formation of a hydrocele of canal of Nuck. Here we present a rare case of hydrocele of canal of Nuck in an adult female.
