Vascular Component

Angioleiomyoma (AL) or vascular leiomyoma is a distinct variant of leiomyoma with prominent vascular component, usually occurs in extremities very rarely arise in internal organ. It has been documented in female genital tract including cervix, uterus, ovary and broad ligament. Uterine leiomyoma is very rare and distinct variant of conventional leiomyoma which has prominent vascular component. The diagnosis of this variant requires histopathological examination since it does not have specific clinical and radiological features unlike in soft tissues where it presents as subcutaneous painful swelling. Like conventional leiomyomyoma, AL can also undergo degenerative changes like hyalinisation, infarction, calcification and myxoid change. Here, a rare case of uterine AL with ovarian seromucinous cystadenoma is reported in a 38-year-old female who was diagnosed incidentally when she was evaluated for abnormal uterine bleeding. MRI pelvis revealed a intramural fibroid of size 5×4.5 cm noted in anterolateral myometrium of uterus and a large multiloculated cystic lesion of size 12.5×12.5×8.8 cm seen arising from left ovary. Abdominal hysterectomy was done. Grossly, sectioning of myometrium showed well circumscribed grey white to grey brown intramural fibroid measuring 4.5×3.5 cm. Histologically the lesion showed fascicles of spindle cells swirling around the thick walled blood vessels and immunohistochemically these cells were positive for Smooth Muscle Actin (SMA). Here, this rare case of uterine AL with brief review of literature is reported.

A Rare case of heterotopic pancreatic tissue of ileum causing acute intestinal obstruction has been described with a brief review of literature. A 42 yr old male patient presented to the emergency department with features of acute intestinal obstruction. After evaluation patient was taken up for emergency laparotomy which revealed a band to be arising from ileum. Furthermore, there was a small growth in the ileal wall at the site of origin of the band. Hence resection of the growth was done and followed by ileoileal anastomosis. Later on, histopathological examination of the growth revealed it to be heterotopic pancreatic tissue. Heterotopic pancreatic tissue is often an incidental nding encountered in upper gastrointestinal tract during endoscopy and surgeries. But Symptomatic ectopic pancreas of ileum is relatively rare and they very rarely present with acute symptoms as in this case

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.

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.

Hydatid cyst is a parasitic disease caused by tapeworm Echinococcus. It affects the liver and lung most commonly, but may rarely affect fallopian tube, broad ligament and other structures. One such peculiar case is where a 17 years old female presented with a rapidly growing cystic mass in lower abdomen, clinically suspicious of ovarian mass or mesentric cyst. Investigations failed to identify the nature. On laparotomy, excision of the mass was done. Suprisingly histopathological examination identified the lesion as hydatid cyst arising from the broad ligament. Patient responded well to surgical excision followed by albendazole administration. Female genital tract hydatidosis is a rare entity and in most cases the involvement is secondary. Primary hydatid disease of female genital tract is even very rarer and generates considerable diagnostic difficulty.

Rare Case Report

The Hemangiopericytoma is a rare vascular tumour originating from the pericytes, which are found on the external surface of the capillaries and are thought to act as a sphincter that controls blood flow. It has a high propensity for recurrence and metastasis.The tumor usually develops as a slowly enlarging painless mass.It typically occurs in the soft tissues of the extremities and trunk, and is rarely seen in the oral cavity.15–16% are seen in the head and neck region.The most common sites of involvement are scalp, face, neck, nasal cavities and paranasal sinuses. Involvement of the palate is extremely rare and so here weare presenting a case of hemangiopericytoma of palate, its diagnosis, management and a brief review of literature.

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.
