Polymorphous low grade adenocarcinoma is a slow growing tumor mainly arises in minorsalivary glands in oral cavity. The frequency of regional lymph node and distant metastasis arevery low in this tumor. Careful examination of histolopathological specimen is necessary asfeatures frequently overlap with that of pleomorphic adenoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma.Local excision is the treatment of this condition. Recurrences and distant metastasis werereported in literature many years after surgery. So, long term regular follow up is required inthis group of patients.DOI: 10.3329/bjo.v16i1.5784Bangladesh J Otorhinolaryngol 2010; 16(1): 66-69

Papillary cystadenocarcinoma is an uncommon disease with low-grade histological and clinical features. Although the tumor has the potential to produce regional lymph node metastasis, there have been no reports of cases with distant metastasis. We describe a case of papillary cystadenocarcinoma arising from the maxilla that developed pulmonary metastasis 3 years after radical surgery of the primary tumor and regional lymph node. The histological findings were confirmed on resected specimens of the pulmonary nodule and a pathological diagnosis of a metastatic lesion derived from papillary cystadenocarcinoma was made. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the development of pulmonary metastasis in a patient with papillary cystadenocarcinoma. The present case suggests that papillary cystadenocarcinoma has the potential to produce lung metastasis in the clinical course. Based on our experience, we emphasize that long-term follow-up and/or careful examination are necessary in patients with cystadenocarcinoma, especially in patients with lymph node metastasis during the initial surgical therapy.

Lateral palatal synechiae are rare congenital adhesions running from the free borders of the cleft palate to the lateral parts of the tongue or the oral cavity floor, typically found in cleft palate lateral synechiae syndrome. We present a case of congenital lateral palatal synechia associated with a cleft palate that we treated and followed up for 10 years. We present the long-term prognosis. We also discuss variations in intraoral synechiae associated with cleft palate and the etiology of lateral palatal synechiae through a literature review.

AbstractNocardia brain abscess is a rare clinical entity, accounting for 2% of all brain abscesses, associated with high morbidity and a mortality rate 3 times higher than brain abscesses caused by other bacteria. Proper investigation and treatment, characterized by a long-term antibiotic therapy, play an important role on the outcome of the patient. The authors describe a case of a patient without neurological comorbidities who developed clinical signs of right occipital lobe impairment and seizures, whose investigation demonstrated brain abscess caused by Nocardia spp. The patient was treated surgically followed by antibiotic therapy with a great outcome after 1 year of follow-up.

Abstract Background Hidradenoma papilliferum is a rare benign neoplasm arising from apocrine glands. It occurs commonly on the anogenital region of middle-aged women. It usually presents as a slow growing, solitary asymptomatic, skin colored or red nodule less than 1 cm in diameter. Case presentation The case is a 38-year-old, white woman who presented with a painful nodule occurring within a month in the himenal region of the posterior vaginal introitus. The nodule was excisied and the histology revealed a hidradenoma papilliferum. The diagnosis and treatment of hidradenoma papilliferum is possible with surgical removal and histopathological evaluation of nodules. Conclusion When an adult woman presents with a noduler lesion in the anogenital area, sexually transmitted diseases and other benign and malignant vulvar lesions, as well as malignant transformation is very rare but,should be kept in mind; however because it has been reported and long-term clinical follow-up is suggested

Rule Out

A myopericytoma in the auricle is rare. If an auricle contains a large, firm, red-brown mass, excision should be considered because the mass may be a myopericytoma. After excision, histopathological and immunohistochemical diagnoses are essential to rule out malignancy. Long-term follow-up is required because the tumor is slow-growing.
