In this case report we describe the development in the cerebellopontine angle of a very rare tumor, ceruminous adenoma. In the few cases described in the literature this tumor occurred in the external acoustic meatus. In four cases it developed in the cerebellopontine angle by infiltration of the petrous bone or by subcutaneous spread. In the present case no connection was found between the cerebellopontine angle and the external acoustic meatus. The most likely pathogenetic hypothesis in this case is that of a tumor of dysembryogenetic origin.

The article is devoted to rare brain pathology, i.e. epidermoid cysts. The histological picture of the tumor is described; the classification is given. On the basis of our own clinical observations and a literature review, the features of the clinical manifestations of cholesteatoma of the cerebellopontine angle, modern approaches to the diagnosis and tactics of complex treatment are presented.

Abstract We report a case of gallbladder paraganglioma that was discovered during nonrelated surgery. Retrospective study disclosed a family history of pheochromocytoma. The occurrence of gallbladder paraganglioma in the presence of family history of endocrine neoplasia supports that gallbladder paraganglioma may indeed occur as a part of the multiple endocrine neoplasm syndrome. Gallbladder paraganglioma is a rare tumor, and so far to our knowledge only 6 cases have been reported in the literature. Three cases were discovered incidentally during cholecystectomy for cholelithiasis, 2 presented with right upper quadrant pain, and 1 manifested with gastrointestinal bleeding. We herein review all reported cases of paraganglioma of gallbladder and biliary system.

Abstract Mucinous cystadenoma is a rare tumor of appendix it accounts for only 0.4% of the gastrointestinal tract malignancies and is reported rarely in literature. Therefore the surgical management is not yet established. Here we report a case of a 65 year old female who presented with a dragging sensation and a feeling of mass in right iliac fossa. Her computed tomography (CT) suggested an abscess formation of the parietal peritoneum. She was planned for laparotomy and upon exploration a mass was found arising from tip of retroperitoneal appendix. Whole of the appendix was studded with mucoid material. Limited right hemicolectomy was performed and histopathology of appendix showed mucinous cystadenoma with no evidence of malignant changes. Patient remained uneventful and was discharged on 4th post operative day. The unusual presentation of retroperitoneal pseudomyxoma without any intraperitoneal pathology, prompted us to report this case. Continuous...
