Common Benign Tumour

Lipoma is the most common benign tumour in hand. Lipoma in hand of size more than 5 cm is classified as Giant Lipoma. Lipoma of larger sizes is rare in hand because of accessibility and lesser subcutaneous tissues. Large lipoma interferes in the hand functions. Lipoma in dominant hand is usually noted early and gets operated. This case is of 65 year old female patient who reported with the swelling in right hand for past 25 years. The size of the lipoma was big and asymptomatic till the presentation. The swelling was investigated and surgically removed which was diagnosed histopatholoically as Intermuscular Thenar Lipoma .

Rare Benign Tumour

Objectives: To describe the features of an oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal myxoma.Materials and methods: Case report of a 34-year-old patient operated upon for a dual-location tumour, and review of the literature.Results: The myxoma is a rare tumour. Various head and neck locations have been described, but not (to our knowledge) a tumour in both the oropharynx and the hypopharynx. Multiple synchronous locations must be searched for, particularly regarding cardiac myxoma.Conclusion: The myxoma is a rare, benign tumour, even rarer in the head and neck. Surgical treatment must be complete in order to avoid recurrences, and should be performed after assessment for cardiac involvement.

Delivery of chemotherapy directly into the peritoneal cavity is becoming part of the standard frontline management of patients with optimally cytoreduced ovarian carcinoma. Traditionally, the peritoneal access devices used for this have had relatively high complication rates including infection, blockage, leakage, and difficulties with port access. In order to reduce the risk of infection, we have been using a Bard 9.6F silastic infusaport that does not have a Dacron cuff to secure it into the tissues of the anterior abdominal wall. It has the added advantage of being more easily removed at the end of treatment. We report a case of spontaneous retraction of such a port out of the peritoneal cavity into the subcutaneous tissues. This complication associated with a silastic cuffless port is presented to raise awareness of this possible complication and suggest ways of preventing it.

Local Inflammation

Localized hypertrichosis with traumatic panniculitis is considered a rare condition. Previous articles have reported occurrence in females aged between 20 and 35 years. Possible mechanisms of trauma-induced localized hypertrichosis include hyperemia and angiogenesis induced by local inflammation, which can alter the hair growth cycle. The presence of inflammatory cells and lipomembranous changes on histopathology can support the diagnosis. We herein present a 35-year-old female patient with localized hypertrichosis following blunt trauma.

Supernumerary Teeth

Abstract Aim The aims of this report are to present a case of nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth and a discussion of the value of three-dimensional computerized tomography (3D CT) for precise radiographic imaging of the anomaly. Background Multiple supernumerary teeth without any associated syndromes are very rare. Exact radiographic presentations with an associated diagnosis of nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth have not been well published. Report A young Chinese female patient presented with asymmetrical nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth in the premolar and molar regions of her mouth. A 3D CT was used to evaluate the exact location and orientation of these teeth and to guide the treatment strategy. Summary The use of 3D CT for the evaluation of supernumerary teeth proved to be very useful in determining their size, location, and state of development, as well as their impact on adjacent teeth and tissues in a 15-year-old patient. Clinical Significance The 3D CT is a very useful radiological tool to assess nonsyndromic multiple supernumerary teeth. Citation Wang W, Wang X, Wang, T.
