Placental polyp is the retained fragment of placental tissue which presents as a polypoidal or pedunculated mass within the uterus. It is a rare entity and has an incidence of less than 0.25 % of all pregnancies. There are also very few reported cases of the clinical placental polyp. Here,we report a case of 22-year-old P1 woman presenting with vaginal bleeding and something coming down into vagina.Her last pregnancy had occurred one year ago.Laboratory investigation revealed slightly elevated serum b-hCG. Ultrasonography revealed thick endometrium, broad cervix (5.2cm) and a hyperechoic mass within the cervix. Extraction of the placental polyp followed by endometrial curettage were done and tissue sent for histopathology. Definite diagnosis was made by histopathological examination and which was a placental polyp. Chatt Maa Shi Hosp Med Coll J; Vol.20 (2); July 2021; Page 85-88

Male breast carcinoma is a rare entity. Here, we present a case of mixed mucinous carcinoma i.e. composite mucinous carcinoma with infiltrating ductal carcinoma component in a 55 year old man. Patient clinically presented with a lump in his right breast. Histopathological examination of the breast mass showed tumor cells arranged in nests, cords, cribriform pattern in a mucinous stroma and a part of tumor was showing features of infiltrating ductal carcinoma with desmoplastic stroma.

Vocal cord swellings are a commonly encountered clinical entity. However, Vocal cord cysts are rare. Also, these are mostly retention cysts caused by obstruction of a glandular duct. We hereby report a case of vocal cord cyst which was diagnosed as retention cyst clinically. However, on excision followed by histopathological examination a diagnosis of epidermoid cyst was made. This case is reported due to the finding of a very rare entity and also to re-emphasize the importance of histopathology as gold standard in examination of lesions. Key words: Vocal cord cyst, epidermoid cyst, Vocal cord swelling.

Polycystic (dysgenetic) disease of the salivary glands is a rare entity that has only recently been described in the literature. The disease is more commonly seen in females and majority of the cases have presented as bilateral parotid gland swellings. This case presenting in a 21-year-old male is the first of this unusual entity involving solely the minor salivary gland on the lower lip. This case report highlights the importance for the clinician to be aware of this differential diagnosis, when treating an innocuous lesion like a mucocele.

Tuberculosis of the oral cavity which is an uncommon occurrence can be primary or secondary. In the absence of active pulmonary tuberculosis, isolated tonsillar tuberculosis is rare. Herein, we report two cases of bilateral tonsillar tuberculosis who presented as recurrent sore throat for which tonsillectomy was done. No active primary pulmonary lesion was found in these cases. Histopathological examination revealed caseating epithelioid granulomas with Langhans giant cells. Ziehl Neelson stain for acid fast bacilli was positive in one case. Tonsillar tuberculosis, though a rare entity, should be considered in the clinical differential diagnosis of tonsillar lesions. Histopathological examination with Ziehl Neelson stain should be performed for definite diagnosis.

ABSTRACT The trichoepithelioma is a benign cutaneous neoplasm which is derived from hair follicles. It is common in the face, but there are only three reports of the solitary occurrence on the nose. It is often not recognized because of its rarity, controversial classification, origin and biological potential. The objective of this paper is to present a case of solitary trichoepithelioma on the nose, histopathological examination and treatment. It should be considered as a differential diagnosis of a solitary lesion of nose which is confused with basal cell carcinoma. The confirmation by histopathological examination is essential.

ABSTRACTHuman coenurosis is a rare zoonotic disease caused by the larvae of Tinea multiceps seen in sheep-rearing countries. We report the case of a 63-year-old male who was referred to our hospital with a working diagnosis of skull base chondrosarcoma. Histopathological examination after surgical excision revealed characteristic feature of coenurus with multiple scolices invaginating from the outer cuticular layer. Coenuri are often mistaken for giant cysticercal cysts and hydatid cysts. Despite its wide prevalence in cattle, only two cases of human coenurosis are reported from India till date. We report the third case from India.

AbstractMesenteric fibromatosis is a part of the clinical-pathologic spectrum of deep fibromatoses. We report this rare case of primary mesenteric tumor that was diagnosed to be a mesenteric fibromatosis on histopathological examination.In majority of patients it may remain asymptomatic and the management of these tumors depends on histopathological examination. Postoperatively, patient was well and subsequent follow up showed normal recovery.

ABSTRACT Schwannomas or neurilemmomas are benign, encapsulated tumor arising from nerve sheath cells. Intracranial Schwannomas are most common with rare occurrence in the extracranial region. It rarely occurs in the floor of the mouth with very few cases reported. We present a rare case report of Schwannoma of the floor of the mouth, thereby highlighting the consideration of this rare entity as one of the differential diagnosis in cases who present to us with swelling of the floor of the mouth and also the importance of immunohistochemistry in coming to the diagnosis.

Dysembryoplastic neuropithelial tumor (DNET) is a rare recently described, benign glioneural tumor frequently associated with intractable seizures in children and young adults which is important to recognise clinically and radiologically as it is surgically curable without need for adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. We hereby present a case report of a 10year old male child who presented with intractable seizures and right parietal space occupying lesion which was diagnosed DNET radiologically, treated by microsurgical excision and confirmed histopathologically as DNET, thus emphasising multidisciplinary role in management of this rare entity.
