ABSTRACT Invasive mycotic infections can be effectively treated if rapid identification of fungus is obtained. We reported a case of coinfection by Aspergillus and Rhizopus sp. involving nose, paranasal sinuses and orbit in a 51 years old male patient diagnosed as diabetic on admission. He presented to ENT OPD with history of drooping of right upper eyelid, decreased vision right eye and deviation of angle of mouth to left side for 12 days. NCCT nose, PNS and orbit showed soft tissue density in right maxillary sinus, ethmoids and destruction of right inferior turbinate. MRI of nose, PNS and orbit revealed hypointense density in right maxillary and ethmoid sinuses on T1-weighted images and on T2-weighted; it was hyperintense. Patient underwent endoscopic debridement under general anesthesia and tissue was sent for microbiological and histopathological examination which confirmed presence of Aspergillus and Rhizopus. Patient responded to therapy with IV amphotericin B and surgical debridement. On discharge patient's condition was good. How to cite this article Gupta R, Gupta B, Bal A, Gupta AK.

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.

History Of

The separation of the follicle from around the crown of an unerupted tooth causes formation of dentigerous cyst. It may undergo metaplasia in several cases. In this case a 30 year old female patient reported with a history of dentigerous cyst with respect to impacted 48. The swelling started growing gradually causing facial asymmetry. On intraoral examination the swelling seem to extend from 48 to 46 region and cortical plates were expanded. The histopathological examination revealed the sample to be cystic ameloblastoma (mural variety). This paper sends a message that the potential of a cyst should never be understated, instead it must be kept in an observation or understanding the biological behavior over a course of time.

Chondrosarcoma is a rare variant of bladder tumor and one of the rare types of soft tissue sarcoma. This case happened on a 36-year-old male who complained of lumps in his lower abdomen, accompanied by difficulties in passing urine and painful urination, without hematuria. We performed TURBT and histopathological examination showed low-grade chondrosarcoma. The patient was diagnosed with low-grade bladder chondrosarcoma. The patient was treated for chemotherapy and radiotherapy. However, after undergoing one cycle of chemotherapy, the patient refused to continue the therapy.

Myxoid Degeneration

Oral focal mucinosis (OFM) is a rare soft-tissue lesion of unknown etiology. Clinically it appears as asymptomatic round lesions and histologically, characterized by focal myxoid degeneration of connective tissue with presence of stellate shaped fibroblasts which were also evident in the present case. This case report stresses on the fact that diagnosis of OFM is almost impossible hence diagnosis should be confirmed by histopathological examination following incisional or excisional biopsy. Through this article we present a rare case of one such lesion on the gingiva and enumerate the most characteristic and myxomatous lesions. Thus though rare, OFM must be considered in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue overgrowths in oral cavity. Here, we describe the clinical and histopathological   presentation and subsequent management of OFM in a female patient.

Pelvic Actinomycosis

Actinomycosis is a rare subacute to chronic granulomatous bacterial infection caused by actinomyces species. Pelvic actinomycosis is rare, often pretends to be malignant and therefore it is difficult to diagnose preoperatively. Here we discuss a case of a 45-years-old female who was operated for a pelvic mass thought to be malignant, but on histopathological examination it turned out to be a case of ovarian actinomycosis.
