Histiocytic sarcoma is very rare malignant neoplasm showing morphological and immunophenotypic characteristics of histiocyte. Morphologic diagnosis is challenging due to overlapping histologic features with diverse mimics. Histologic diagnosis is confirmed by expression of one or more histiocytic markers, including CD163, CD68, and lysozyme. We present a bona fida case of extranodal histiocytic sarcoma involving the small intestine in a 67-year-old male. The diagnosis is confirmed by diffuse immunoreactivity of CD163, which is believed to be more specific histiocytic marker than CD68.

We report a case of adenomyoma of the small intestine arising in a Meckel diverticulum. The patient was a 22-month-old boy who presented with signs and symptoms of intussusception. At surgery, a Meckel diverticulum was found and removed. On histologic examination, a tumor consisting of dilated cystic glands and smooth muscle bundles was identified. A diagnosis of adenomyoma arising in a Meckel diverticulum was made. A review of the literature showed that only six other pediatric cases of adenomyoma of the small intestine have been reported. The presence of an adenomyoma in a young patient within a Meckel diverticulum favors the view that adenomyomas are a variant of pancreatic heterotopia.
