Post Contrast

A 26-year-old male presented with an asymptomatic 6-cm leftparatesticular mass. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imagingconfirmed this mass as extratesticular, likely a tumour arisingfrom the left spermatic cord. The mass demonstrated marked avidenhancement on post-contrast images, suggestive of a spermaticcord sarcoma. A left inguinal exploration was performed and grossexamination of the mass revealed a well-circumscribed tumourwith a discrete capsule separating it from the ipsilateral spermaticcord. The mass was resected without performing an orchiectomyand histology demonstrated a solitary fibrous tumour (lipomatoushemangiopericytoma), with minimal proliferative activity and negativemargins. The occurrence of a paratesticular solitary fibroustumour is exceedingly rare, with only a handful of case reports.We review the literature regarding this rare entity and discuss itsdiagnosis and management.

Hypoglycaemia due to insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-2 secretion is a paraneoplastic complication of malignancy with significant morbidity that can often go unrecognised due to its uncommon presentation. We report on a case of a 51-year-old man with metastatic haemangiopericytoma presenting with refractory hypoglycaemia, requiring continuous dextrose 10% infusion while in hospital. IGF-2 levels were significantly elevated, in keeping with a rare entity associated with solitary fibrous tumours, known as Doege-Potter syndrome. The patient was managed using uncooked cornstarch in conjunction with debulking of the hepatic tumour burden with bland IR-guided transarterial embolisation, and eventual surgical resection to treat his non-islet cell tumour hypoglycaemia (NICTH). The case highlights this rare paraneoplastic phenomenon that should be included in the differential for hypoglycaemia, especially if a history of a solitary fibrous tumour is elicited. Our case is the first to document a successful approach to treating the hypoglycaemia using preoperative transarterial bland embolisation.

We report the case of a 1-year-old child who presented with complaints of redness and defective vision since birth. The child had no systemic abnormalities. On examination, complete keratinization of the bulbar conjunctiva and cornea was noted with dry, lustreless and irregular surface. Corneal sensation was intact. Orbital MRI revealed bilateral agenesis of the lacrimal gland with normal salivary glands. The child was given vitamin supplementation, cyclosporine eye drops along with lubricants and tape tarsorrhaphy in the night. Permanent occlusion of both the lower puncta was done. There was decreased ocular surface congestion, with frequent wetting of the ocular surface, which continued in the months to follow. We present a case of isolated bilateral lacrimal gland agenesis with normal salivary glands, a rare cause of dry eye in children. An early diagnosis and conservative management can help in maintaining functional vision in such cases.

Adenoid cystic carcinomas have specific pathologic features that correlate with prognosis. In general, adenoid cystic carcinomas are aggressive tumours with poor prognosis. Treatment most commonly includes surgery with or without radiation and chemotherapy. We describe a patient who presented with right periorbital swelling and CT Face contrast showing well defined soft tissue dense heterogeneously enhancing mass lesion seen along medial wall of right orbital region. The tumour was excised, and pathologic analysis showed an adenoid cystic carcinoma of the lacrimal gland. We review the clinical, radiographic, and pathologic features of these rare malignant tumours as well as treatment options.
