Introduction. Myoepithelioma primarily affects the parotid gland and usually presents as a slow-growing painless lump. The aim of this paper is to report a case of myoepithelioma in the mouth floor. Case outline. A young man noticed a painless increased volume in the left side of the mouth floor region, which after one year of evolution presented as a sessile tumor with normal colored mucosa and the absence of secretion output. Computed tomography with contrast showed an image with slightly heterogeneous density, with well-defined limits. Incisional biopsy was performed under local anesthesia, and pathology examination of the sample revealed a myoepithelial neoplasm. Total excision of the lesion was performed under general anesthesia, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of the salivary gland myoepithelioma. The patient did not present signs of relapse after a year of follow up. Conclusion. Despite the fact that myoepithelioma originating in the salivary gland are considered rare, especially in the mouth floor, this tumor should be considered in the differential diagnosis of similar lesions. Proper treatment appears to be complete surgical excision and post-operative follow-ups shows should be carried out as long as possible, despite the fact that relapses are extremely rare.

Lipomas are benign tumours of mesenchymal origin (mature adipocytes) that are comparatively uncommon in the oral cavity corresponding to less than 4.4% of all benign oral soft tissue tumors. Clinically, they present as slow growing, soft, asymptomatic masses. Histopathologically, they appear as thinly encapsulated lesion composed of mature adipocytes with inconspicuous vascularity. The pathogenetic mechanisms of oral lipomas are still unclear. They are usually treated by surgical excision and bear excellent prognosis. Here we report a case of intraoral lipoma in 54 year old male patient in the left lower lingual alveolar mucosal region that was treated by surgical excision using electrocautery without any postsurgical complication. One-year follow-up showed no evidence of recurrence.

Abstract Schwannomas are rare tumours arising from peripheral nerve sheath. Here, a 44-year-old lady came to our clinic with an asymptomatic progressively-enlarging swelling over her upper back. It was fluctuant, with an absence of pain and tenderness. MRI showed a benign, purely-cystic, superficial-intermuscular, extra-spinal swelling nearby upper thoracic vertebrae. Complete surgical excision proceeded smoothly through a well-defined plane between the swelling and the muscles. It was not attached to any identifiable nerve. A 6.5x5.0x2.5 cm ovoid lesion with a glistening whitish-grey capsule was excised and wound reconstructed in layers. Histopathology showed hypercellular areas with nuclear palisading or oval-shaped Verocay bodies. Only S-100 tested positive amongst the five-antigen immunohistochemistry, thus establishing the diagnosis of a schwannoma. Postoperatively, a one-year follow-up period was uneventful. Schwannomas can surprise clinicians by arising anywhere and with atypical presentations. It needs to be in the differential diagnoses of any asymptomatic slowly-growing lesion.

AbstractBackground:Pregnancy-associated pyogenic granuloma (pregnancy tumour) is not uncommon. However, control of severe bleeding associated with the lesion by transarterial embolisation has never been reported.Case report:We report the case of a 33-year-old pregnant woman (34 weeks gestation) who presented with a pregnancy-associated pyogenic granuloma of the mandibular gingiva with a life-threatening haemorrhage. The bleeding stopped soon after transarterial micro-embolisation and regressed after one month; thus, no further surgical excision was needed. The patient was free of post-operative wound pain and infection, and there was no recurrence after one year of follow up.Conclusion:In general, surgical excision is the first treatment choice for pregnancy tumours. However, it is limited by the risk of marked deformity or incomplete excision when large lesions or difficult surgical areas are encountered. For large tumours, transarterial embolisation may be a safer alternative.

Background: Myxoma is a rare tumor most frequently discovered in cardiac locations. The present report describes a rare case of extracardiac origin in the femoral vein, initially presenting as leg pain and swelling. Case Presentation: A 40-year-old woman was admitted to our regional hospital with unilateral left leg swelling and pain. She underwent a Duplex scan and CT scan, which revealed a 21 x 25 mm diameter mass in contact with the distal femoral vein, initially diagnosed as a thrombosed sacciform aneurysm. The patient underwent surgical excision of a bulging mass in the vein wall, which was directly closed by running suture. The anatomopathological report concluded with a myxoma. One-year follow-up showed a patent vein without evidence of recurrence of the tumor. Conclusion: Although very rare, peripheral venous myxoma may manifest with common symptoms as leg pain and swelling. Current vascular imaging and complete surgical excision should be performed without delay to allow a precise diagnosis and prevent further complications.

The incidence of heterotopic ossification in adolescents appears to be lower than in adults. There exist very few reports of heterotopic ossification with total bony ankylosis in child or adolescent populations. We describe a case of total bony ankylosis of the elbow secondary to heterotopic ossification, in a 14-year-old female. Total ankylosis of the elbow at 45 degrees of flexion was noted 6 months postsurgery, and complete surgical excision of the heterotopic mass was performed. After an additional one-time dose of radiation therapy and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug medication, full range of motion was obtained without any recurrence or other complications, up to the last follow-up of 30 months.

Nasal Tumor

Vascular leiomyomas or angioleiomyomas are rare tumors that can be found in the nasal cavity. The etiology of angioleiomyoma remains poorly understood and there are several hypotheses to explain the origin of sinonasal leiomyoma. We here describe the clinical and histological findings in a case study along with the feasibility of surgical treatment using a radiofrequency instrument. In particular, we describe the case of an adult patient with recurrent epistaxis because of a nasal angioleiomyoma and the performed treatment in the form of complete surgical excision. Radiological imaging is a helpful tool to give an indication of the extension of the tumor, as well as for the proper planning of the surgical approach. Either MRI or CT scans are found to be best suited for this purpose. This case report recommends the complete surgical excision of the angioleiomyoma, by either an endoscopic or an open procedure. This can be safely performed using a radiofrequency instrument as shown in this case with no recurrence during a follow-up of 12 months.

Rare Case Report

<p>Epiglottis dermoid cysts are generally benign lesions, which can affect all the age groups. Dermoid cysts arising from the head and neck region are rare, slow growing, and well-circumscribed neoplasm. Symptoms are non-specific and usually related to the size and the location of the lesion. A dermoid cyst of the epiglottis is extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, only one case has been previously reported in the English literature and a total of three cases were presented in Russian literature in two studies. In our report, a middle-aged male presented with foreign body sensation in throat for 1-year and difficulty in swallowing for three months, mainly for solids. Thorough history, clinical examination and relevant investigation were done. Direct laryngoscopy was done and complete surgical excision was done. The aim of the case report is to present a rare case of epiglottic dermoid cyst, its clinical presentation, radio-logical features and surgical management.</p>

Introduction: Endometriosis is the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside of uterine cavity. It may occur in the abdominal wall scar after the operation in which uterus was opened. In cesarean section scar it occurs in 0.4%. It is in 2/3 patients characterized with triad of: tumor, periodic pain associated with menses and history of cesarean section. The mechanism of endometriosis occurring in the cesarean scar is felt to be secondary to iatrogenic transplantation of endometrium or extrauterine decidual tissue into the incision during the cesarean section. Case outline. Forty years old patient with tumor 4,5x4 cm that appeared in abdominal wall scar one year after second cesarean section, followed by periodic pain and macroscopic changes associated with menses. First diagnosis was granuloma in the surgical scar, but as she had periodic symptoms, diferential diagnosis was endometriosis. Hormonal therapy with contraceptive drugs was ordered. As it was no improvement she was operated. The surgical excision of the tumor including fascia and muscle tissue was done. Sample revealed endometrium after histopathologic examination. Patient was completely recovered and without relapse of symptoms during follow up to date. Conclusion. When there is a tumor in the cesarean section scar or scar after the operation in which uterus or ovarial tube was opened, followed with periodical pain and macroscopic changes associated with menses, endometriosis should be considered. Surgical excision of the tumor is sufficient and patohistological examination confirms diagnosis. .

<p class="abstract">Schwannomas are rare, solitary, slow growing, smooth surfaced and well encapsulated tumors. Schwannomas of head and neck region account for 25-40% of all the cases. Approximately 1%–12% of schwannomas occur intraorally, the tongue being the most common site. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice.  In this article, we describe a case of tongue schwannoma in a child, along with diagnostic and treatment options of tongue lesions. The tongue mass was completely excised via trans-oral approach using coblation method. The patient followed up for 1 year; he had an uneventful recovery and no recurrence.</p>
