Microscopic Features

Myofibroblastoma (MFB) is a rare mesenchymal tumor arising in breast's soft tissue with a great variety of microscopic features that can be mistaken with a wide variety of biphasic lesions. The authors report a rare case of myofibroblastoma of the breast arising in a mammary hamartoma (MH), present a review of the clinicopathological features of these lesions, and make some diagnostic considerations. The tumour consisted of a well-circumscribed nodule. MFB component comprised about fifty percent of the lesion and was made up of bipolar spindle cells arranged in fascicular clusters separated by bands of hyalinized collagen. There were fat cells and several residual hamartoma glands intermingled and distorted in MFB area. MFB component was positive for Desmin, CD34, bcl-2, and Calponin. To the best of our knowledge, MFB has not been reported in MH, neither has any of the reports described mammary glands joined within MFB.

AbstractBackground:Myopericytoma is a relatively recently described skin and soft tissue tumour that demonstrates perivascular myoid cell or pericytic differentiation. Whilst the range of anatomical locations has expanded to include visceral locations, head and neck myopericytomas are rarely documented. There have been no previous reports of aural myopericytoma.Case report:This paper reports the clinicopathological features of a biopsy-proven, slow-growing, 20 × 20 mm, polypoid myopericytoma that involved the external auditory canal and tragus in an 18-year-old woman. Excision was curative.Conclusion:Heightened clinicopathological awareness of the expanding anatomical distribution of myopericytoma is critical to its diagnosis when it presents in unusual and novel locations. Myopericytoma should be added to the range of external auditory canal neoplasms, especially those characterised by an admixture of spindle cells and a prominence of blood vessels, including those with a haemangiopericytomatous pattern.

Introduction: Winging of scapula is defined as a failure of dynamic stabilizing structures that anchor the scapula to the chest wall, leading to prominence of the medial border of scapula. It could be primary, secondary, or voluntary. Primary winging could be true winging due to neuromuscular causes or pseudo-winging due to osseous or soft-tissue masses. A scapular osteochondroma is a very rare presentation site and causes pseudo-winging leading to pushing away of the scapula away from the chest wall presenting as medial border prominence. Here, we are reporting a rare case of a scapular osteochondroma causing a pseudo-winging of the scapula. Case Report: A 2-year-old male child presented with painless, immobile, and non-fluctuant swelling over the left scapular region, insidious in onset and progressive in nature. On examination, a non-tender, immobile swelling was palpable with a painless and unrestricted range of motion at the shoulder joint. After evaluating radiographs and CT scan, the patient was diagnosed to have a ventral scapular osteochondroma leading to pseudo-winging of the scapula. Conclusion: Despite the rarity, a differential diagnosis of a scapular osteochondroma should be kept in mind while examining a young child presenting with a winged scapula. Keywords: Scapula, osteochondroma, pseudo-winging.

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a soft tissue infection affecting subcutaneous tissue and the muscular fascia without involvement of the muscle and can be either monomicrobial or polymicrobial. Monomicrobial infections are usually caused by group A streptococci, while infections caused by anaerobic germs usually affect immunodepressed patients. We report a rare case of NF caused by two anaerobic bacteria in an immunocompetent patient.

Abstract Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma (AFS) is a rare, aggressive malignant odontogenic tumor. AFS is seen most frequently in second and third decades of life. We are reporting a case of a low grade AFS in a 21-year-old male complaining of a painless swelling in the right side of the maxilla. The patient was treated with surgical excision followed by radiotherapy, which is considered the most effective approach for most of soft tissue sarcomas. AFS has a high-reported recurrence rate (up to 37%); therefore, long-term surveillance for recurrence is crucial.

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) is a rare soft tissue tumor and a GIST arising from the mesocolon is even rarer and sparsely reported in the world literature. Herein we report one such case that we encountered in our clinical practice and review the literature on the management of such a rare case.
