Primary vaginal carcinoma in uterovaginal prolapse is a rare entity. We report a case of an 84-years-old lady, who presented with long standing vaginal ulcer in association with third degree uterovaginal prolapse. Incisional biopsy was taken from the ulcer. Histopathological examination showed a large cell keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma. Keywords: Squamous cell carcinoma, uterovaginal prolapse, vaginal carcinoma.

Gingival Squamous cell carcinoma (GSCC) in maxilla is a rare malignant neoplasm especially when compared with mandible. The most common sites of oral carcinoma are being the lateral border of the tongue and the floor of the mouth which is followed by palate, buccal mucosa and rarely in gingiva. The clinical picture of oral carcinoma can be misguided for gingival overgrowth, desquamative lesions, traumatic ulcers or even pyogenic granuloma. Maxillary oral gingival carcinoma is a rare entity especially in a non-smoker. In this case report, a 70-year-old male patient presented with a gingival lesion in maxilla 24,25 region mimicking pyogenic granuloma without having a tobacco history. A thorough clinical, radiographical and histopathological examination was done and led to the diagnosis of GSCC and the treatment was initiated.Creating awareness among practitioners about gingival squamous cell carcinoma mimicking pyogenic granuloma in dental practice.

We report a case of  a patient  in his early  30s’ who presented with an ulcero-proliferative growth over the left buccal mucosa , he was also on treatment for CML in blast crisis on Hydroxyurea and a known case of Ichthyosis Follicularis, Alopecia, and Photophobia (IFAP) syndrome. Though a working diagnosis of chloroma / Hydroxyurea induced erosive Lichen planus  was suspected, the histopathological examination of the lesion was suggestive of Squamous cell Carcinoma. He was subsequently planned for palliative radiotherapy .

Introduction: Oral papillary squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is a rare variant of squamous cell carcinoma with an unusual presentation in the palate. Observation: This case report presents a 68 year old male who reported with pain in the roof of the jaw for the past one month. The patient gave a history of a small ulcer over the right palatal region since a year which gradually increased in size. History also revealed that he was a tobacco chewer for around five years and had quit the habit one year back. Clinically, a proliferative growth in the right palatal region was apparent. The growth was firm in consistency and had well-defined borders that crossed the midline of palate. Based on the noticeable clinical signs, the case was provisionally diagnosed as verrucous carcinoma. Histopathology report of the incisional biopsy confirmed the case to be non-invasive oral papillary squamous cell carcinoma. Commentary: OPSCC displays either a papillary variant or exophytic pattern. It has a better prognosis than squamous cell carcinoma of similar clinical stage but is worse than verrucous carcinoma. Conclusion: Since OPSCC may mimic other benign conditions of oral cavity, evaluation of clinical parameters that are associated with the risk of carcinoma is mandatory. This article highlights the significance of histopathological examination that aids the clinician to arrive at a diagnosis for any suspicious papillary lesions.

Abstract Inverted papilloma is an uncommon tumor mostly arising from the lateral wall of the nasal cavity and displays a benign but locally aggressive behavior. Intracranial extension is an extremely rare presentation of inverted papilloma. Extension occurs either as a benign lesion or due to malignant transformation. We report a case of concurrent inverted papilloma and squamous cell carcinoma presenting with epistaxis and recent-onset altered behavior and memory impairment. After literature review of similar cases having inverted papilloma with intracranial extension, we could identify a total of 12 cases, most of which were recurrences of a primary inverted papilloma that were resected before extension into the cranial cavity. Most cases were of extradural extension, and intradural spread resulted in poor prognosis on follow-up. Concurrent inverted papilloma and squamous cell carcinoma extending into the anterior cranial fossa and frontal lobe is a very rare clinical entity and can present as frontal lobe syndrome.

Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the renal parenchyma is an extremely rare entity. The diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis is usually unsuspected due to the rarity and inconclusive clinical and radiological features. Most of the patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage and are with poor outcome. Radical nephrectomy is the mainstay of the treatment. We reported a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the kidney in a 50-year-old female who presented with the right sided abdomen pain. The patient was treated with radical nephrectomy.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the commonest primary malignant esophageal tumor, which typically presents as endoscopically visible surface mucosal ulcerations, irregularities, or polyploidal masses. We here report a rare case of primary ESCC with completely intramural growth under a normal looking intact nondysplastic surface squamous epithelium disguising as a submucosal tumor. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy-guided mucosal biopsy was negative for malignancy. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) revealed a heteroechoic solid mass originating from the muscularis propria of the distal esophagus. Cytological study of EUS-guided fine needle aspiration from the mass was suggestive of squamous cell carcinoma, which was confirmed on immunohistochemistry. There was no evidence of metastatic origin of this tumor or continuous cancer involvement from the surrounding structures, including the head, neck, and lungs on bronchoscopy, computed tomography scan, and positron emission tomography scan. Exclusive intramural squamous cell carcinoma with normal overlying mucosa is an exceedingly rare presentation of primary ESCC with only four cases reported in the literature so far. A high index of suspicion is required by the gastroenterologists and pathologists in diagnosing these cases as these tumors closely mimic the mesenchymal submucosal tumors such as lipoma, leiomyoma, and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. EUS is an indispensable tool in making a preoperative diagnosis and therapeutic decision making.

A twenty-year-old, male, intact alpaca with a history of anorexia, progressive weakness and recumbency was euthanized because of a poor prognosis and clinical deterioration. The animal was submitted for necropsy at the pathology department of Dierengezondheidszorg Vlaanderen (DGZ) diagnostic lab. A full necropsy was performed and showed a large firm white mass measuring 18x8x10 cm attached to the dorsal wall of gastric compartment 1 (C1) and expanding to the abdominal aorta. Miliary small white metastatic nodules were present on the pleura and peritoneum (carcinomatosis). Multiple small white metastatic nodules were also present in the parenchyma of the liver. On histological investigation, this neoplasia was characterized as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
