Objective: This study aimed to analyze the profile of bladder disease in Soetomo General Hospital based on histopathological examination. Material & Methods: This study was using secondary data. Histopathological examination data of patients with bladder disease were evaluated based on age, gender, and histopathological types. Results: There were 419 patients with bladder abnormalities. Non-neoplasm bladder diseases were found in 62 patients consisted of 56 patients (90.32%) with cystitis and 6 patients (9.67%) with glandular cystitis. Neoplastic bladder diseases were found in 357 patients and were divided into benign and malignant neoplasm. Benign neoplasms were found in 11 patients consisted of 5 patients (45.45%) with UP and 6 patients (54.54%) with IUP. Malignant neoplasms were found in 340 patients consisted of 300 patients (88.23%) with urothelial carcinoma, 26 patients (7.64%) with adenocarcinoma, 14 patients (4.12%) with SCC. Moreover, six male patients with PUNLMP were also reported. Conclusion: Histopathological examination in patients with bladder abnormalities shows that neoplastic bladder diseases (357/419, 85.20%) were more common than non-neoplastic bladder disease (62/419, 14.80%).

Lipomas of the palatine tonsil are rare benign neoplasms in clinical practice. We present a case of palatine tonsillar fibroangiolipoma in a 50-year-old Chinese male with a history of multiple lipomas on the back and extremities. It was diagnosed based on histological examination and integrated analysis. Good wound healing and no evidence of recurrence were noted within 6 months follow-up after tonsillectomy. This article also puts a spotlight on the differential diagnosis of benign tonsillar tumors and reviewed recent relevant literature.

Background. Lipomas are benign neoplasms arising from fat tissue, with an incidence in the upper extremity of 1%-3,8%. There is scarce literature on the outcomes of the treatment of lipomas in this region. The objective of this study was to assess clinical manifestations and outcomes of surgery for upper extremity lipomas. Material and methods. The sample comprised 40 patients, including 26 women (65%) and 14 men (35%), at a mean age of 37 years, with lipomas located in the upper limbs. Treatment outcomes were assessed at a mean of 4.2 years after surgery in 27 patients from this group. Results. Most of the tumours (29 cases, 73%) were located in the forearm and arm, with 11 patients (27%) presenting with lipomas of the metacarpus and wrist. In 35 patients (87%), lesions were located superficially, within subcutaneous tissue, whereas in 5 (13%) they were located more deeply, in the metacarpus and in the forearm muscles. The follow-up assessment was conducted as telephone interviews in 27 patients. No recurrence was noted. Seven patients (26%) complained of mild tenderness of the postoperative scar. Conclusions. 1. Lipomas are moderately frequent benign lesions occurring in the upper limb. 2. Surgical treat­ment is effective and the recurrence rate is very low.

Context.— Although rare in everyday practice, the initial presentation of hematopoietic neoplasms other than lymphoma in the musculoskeletal system and other extranodal sites can generate challenging diagnostic problems for surgical pathologists. Objective.— To review the morphologic and immunophenotypic features of various nonlymphoid hematopoietic diseases presenting at extranodal sites, with emphasis on the inherent diagnostic pitfalls and differential diagnoses of these entities to aid surgical pathologists in their accurate recognition. Data Sources.— Cases reviewed herein represent both in-house and consult cases seen at our institution between 2010 and 2021. Conclusions.— Entities that present in this way include myeloid neoplasms and histiocytic/dendritic cell neoplasms. These tumors commonly cause nonspecific symptoms, and their histologic appearance can overlap with a variety of benign neoplasms and reactive processes. This can lead to delay in diagnosis and intervention with potentially lifesaving therapy; thus, accurate and expedient recognition is of paramount importance.

Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is commonly encountered in the cerebellopontine angle and benign neoplasms that arise from Schwann cells of the eighth cranial nerve, which can show not only hearing loss but also various vestibular symptoms. Dizziness is the symptom causing significantly negative effect on quality of life in patients with VS. Here, we will review the dizziness in VS.

Even after the approved classification of congenital vascular tumours/malformations which was first published by Mulliken and Glowacki, in the year 1982, there is still a significant amount of confusion to categorize hemangiomas and vascular malformations. Hemangiomas are considered to be true, benign neoplasms arising from endothelial cells and must be clearly differentiated from localized defects of vascular morphogenesis, i.e., vascular malformations.

Abstract Background: Diseases of the oral cavity are heterogenous in etiology, pathogenesis, histogenesis and clinical outcome. Several epidemiologic studies exist in the literature with variable and conflicting results, based on small sized-samples and geographic factors. The aim of this study is to examine the frequency of oral diseases encountered in our experience from a tertiary hospital and to compare it with previous studies.Methods: The archives of pathology at Jordan University Hospital were retrospectively searched for specimens of oral cavity and related structures anatomic areas between 2013-2020. Fisher’s exact test was performed to examine the statistical difference between the pathologic diagnosis and clinical variables of age, gender and site of specimen. One-way ANOVA test was applied to analyzed the differences in the mean of age among different pathologic groups. P-value of less than 0.05 was considered significant.Results: A total of four-hundred forty-one cases were retrieved. There were 232 (52%) females and 210 (48%) males. The range of age was 3-87 years (mean 43), 46 (10%) of which were children younger than 16 years. Inflammatory and reactive diseases were the most common, constituting 147 (33%) of all specimens, followed by benign neoplasms: 139 (31%), cysts: 114 (26%) then malignant diseases: 42 (10%). Lichen planus was the most common inflammatory disease: 26/147 (18%) and prevailed in patients older than 40 years (P = 00039). Keratocyst predominated in children and adolescents more than in adults (P = 0.0015). Buccal mucosa represented the most frequent site for biopsy: 76 (17%), followed by tongue and maxillary bone: 70 (16%), each. Conclusion: Inflammatory and benign neoplasms are the most common lesions in oral diseases. Oral malignancy appears to show a low to intermediate frequency compared to previous reports. The study provides a general overview of the spectrum of oral pathology specimens and points to some novel epidemiologic findings that suggests further investigations.

Tumors reaching gigantic sizes usually belong to the group of benign neoplasms, they are found mainly in the genital area (Kedrova, etc.) and are quite rare in other areas of the body. These tumors grow slowly and in some cases, as a result of long-term growth, reach gigantic proportions. Among the huge connective tissue tumors are fibromas, lipomas, chondromas, epithelial - cystomas (Kedrova). An example of a giant chondroma that did not develop from the genital sphere is a tumor that we met at a section in 1931.

Abstract Warts are one of the most common benign neoplasms. Warts are induced by over 100 types of human papillomavirus (HPVs) and can affect any race. Various treatments were considered to treat warts, of which topical salicylic acid and KOH are the most commonly used choices. Aim of the study To compare between the efficacy, safety and recurrence rate of topical 15% potassium hydroxide (KOH) and 20% Salicylic acid in the treatment of multiple palm plantar warts. Patients and methods study included 40 patients complaining of multiple palmar and/or planter warts 2 lesions at least. Each patient was treated by: Salicylic acid 20% used on one lesion and topical 15% KOH preparation used on another lesion. Assessment of patients’ response was done through clinical and dermoscopic examination. Results Salicylic acid results revealed that 5% of the treated lesions showed Clinical improvement without dermoscopic clearance, 40% showed Clinical clearance with dermoscopic remnants while 55% showed Clinical and dermoscopic clearance. KOH treated warts showed 5% of the treated lesions had clinical improvement without dermoscopic clearance, 25% showed clinical clearance with dermoscopic remnants while 70% showed clinical and dermoscopic clearance. Conclusion KOH therapy as well as patient satisfaction showed higher significant treatment response compared to salicylic acid therapy with less encountered side effects.
