Scalp and calvarial masses are common in children and the differential diagnosis is broad. The authors recently cared for a child with an unusual fibro-osseous lesion of the temporal bone that has previously not been described in the pediatric neurosurgery literature. A 10-year-old girl presented with a firm, slowly enlarging protuberant mass arising from the squamous suture of the temporal bone without intracranial extension. The mass was removed en bloc through a temporal craniectomy and cranioplasty was performed. The patient had a smooth postoperative course. Histological examination showed multiple oval osseous islands dispersed throughout a bland fibrous stroma. The pathological diagnosis was “Bullough’s bump,” a rare, benign fibro-osseous neoplasm first described in 1999, and only 8 reported cases appear in the literature. Here the authors report the first case of Bullough’s bump in a child.

Despite the evolution of transplantation techniques, urological complications are common and result in loss of graft. We report the case of a 57-year-old man who developed continuous urine leakage despite pyeloureteral neoanastomosis and stenting after kidney transplantation from his dizygotic twin. Suspecting ureteral leakage, we performed pyeloureteral neoanastomosis using his native right ureter and a ureteral stent 5 days after the kidney transplant. However, urine leakage continued for several days. Because the plasma factor XIII level decreased to 48%, we administered factor XIII products (Fibrogammin P; CSL Behring, King of Prussia, PA) after the surgery. Although its utility and safety in patients with renal failure and/or transplantation are unclear, urine leakage stopped after the infusion of fibrogammin without any side effects. This is the first case report of the use of factor XIII for refractory urine leakage after kidney transplantation. Although further studies are needed, administration of factor XIII products could be one option for refractory urine leakage after transplantation.

Primary vertebral leiomyosarcoma of the spine is extremely rare. Due to its rarity, the number of studies on pathology, treatment and prognosis is limited. Tissue Biopsy and Immunohistochemical staining techniques provide unequivocal diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma. The mainstay of treatment of spinal leiomyosarcoma is surgery, with or without radiotherapy and embolization. The principles of surgery comprise resection of tumor, decompression and stabilisation of the spinal cord and prevention of tumor recurrence. The Tomita total en-bloc resection is the preferred surgical technique. We hereby present a literature review of spinal leiomyosarcoma and a case report of the first case of a 56-year-old lady in Malaysia who was diagnosed with L3 vertebral leiomyosarcoma and lung metastasis.
