Biopsy Report

Lymphangioma is an uncommon benign lesion that usually occurs during childhood. Its occurrence in adults is rare. Its presentation in the abdomen is even rare. This case report describes a case of omental lymphangioma presented as retroperitoneal lump. Subsequent imaging, operative, and histological findings revealed omental lymphangioma. Laparotomy done under general anesthesia, a 10 × 12 cm cystic swelling arising from omentum, identified complete excision of the cyst done and send the specimen for histopathological examination. Biopsy report came as omental lymphangioma. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice. Prognosis is excellent and recurrence rate is very low if resection is complete. During two years of followup no recurrence was detected. Omental lymphangioma is very rare presentation among abdominal lymphangiomas specifically in adults. Complete excision is the treatment of choice. Long-term followup is required to detect recurrence.

Sublabial Approach

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a benign lesion that occurs most frequently in the soft tissues and viscera. In the head and neck region, the tumor has been reported to occur in the orbit, tongue, nasopharynx, larynx, and paranasal sinuses and the central nervous system. Despite being a benign lesion, it exhibits infiltrative and destructive behaviours, making histopathological examination necessary to confirm the diagnosis. We report the case of a 38-year-old female presented with a right nasolabial fold mass, which was confirmed histologically to be an IMT. Surgical excision of the mass was achieved through a sublabial approach with an uneventful postoperative period. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an IMT in the nasolabial fold.

Retroperitoneal Tumors

ABSTRACTRetroperitoneal teratoma is a extragonadal germ cell tumor comprising 5% of all teratomas in children, and the third most common retroperitoneal neoplasm in children. This is a case report of a 2 years old girl who presented with abdominal distension and palpable mass. The imaging findings of the mass was characteristic of retroperitoneal teratoma which was confirmed by histopathology report following complete excision. Retroperitoneal tumor is an uncommon tumor in children with characteristic imaging findings. Computed tomography is mainly used to evaluate the extent of the disease. Most of the retroperitoneal tumors are benign and curable with complete surgical excision.

Introduction Lipoblastoma is a rare benign tumour arising from embryonic white fat been commonly noted in limbs and trunk, but tongue involvement is rare and has not yet been reported. Case Report A child with tongue lipoblastoma is reported, whose imaging reported an encapsulated, well-delineated, fat-containing tumour. Surgical excision was performed with no post-operative morbidities.  Discussion Lipoblastoma is an uncommon childhood tumour, which rarely affects the tongue. It presents as a progressive painless swelling, rarely causing any symptom. MRI is helpful to assess the precise location and extent of the lesion. Although the ratio of fat to myxocollagenous tissue in the tumour is variable, the diagnosis can be suggested in most cases based on the imaging characteristics. Recommended treatment is complete surgical excision and confirmation of diagnosis by histopathological examination.

ABSTRACT Schwannomas are slow growing, encapsulated, solitary, benign tumors. They can arise from any myelinated nerve as they are tumors of neural sheath Schwann cells. Schwannoma seen in head and neck region are most commonly found in tongue, floor of mouth but rarely in oropharynx and tonsils. They are usually asymptomatic and rarely undergo malignant transformation. Schwannomas are considered radioresistant and recure less frequently after complete excision. Hence, complete surgical excision is treatment of choice. We are presenting a case of elderly female with oropharyngeal schwannoma completely extirpated transorally by dissection method by cold instruments. Due to rarity of presentation the surgical approach to this lesion is not well established. Following surgery the raw area created was well epithelized and patient relieved symptoms without significant morbidity. We conclude that this is a cost-effective and simple approach for management of other similar cases in future.

Retrorectal hamartoma or tailgut cyst is an uncommon congenital disease of presacral and retrorectal space and is embryologically part of some forms of enteric cysts. The rarity of this disease leads to difficulty in diagnosis and surgical management. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice for tailgut cysts. We present a case of a 40-year-old man, who presented to us with abdominal pain for four months, which had become more prominent while defecation and after eating. Abdominal computed tomography demonstrated a cyst in the lower interperitoneal cavity. Surgical complete excision of the mass was done with midline laparotomy. Histopathology confirmed cloacal cyst.

Morphological Patterns

Atypical fibrous histiocytoma is a rare and a distinct variant of cutaneous fibrous histiocytoma which can be misdiagnosed as sarcoma. It is mainly composed of a mixture of fibroblastic and histiocytic cells, especially found in the skin (dermatofibroma), particularly in the limbs. It is quite uncommon and is difficult to distinguish from a malignant lesion. Due to the lack of clear cut predictive morphological patterns and due to the suspicion of malignancy, complete surgical excision is recommended. Provided that atypical fibrous histiocytoma is treated by complete excision, a benign outcome is to be expected in most cases. However, like the cellular and aneurysmal variants of fibrous histiocytoma, atypical fibrous histiocytoma shows a higher tendency to recur locally than ordinary fibrous histiocytoma and may rarely metastasize. Lesions with floridly atypical features represent potential pitfalls for overinterpretation as pleomorphic sarcoma, which would appear to be inappropriate in most cases. Due to its rarity and uncertainty, we report a case of atypical fibrous histiocytoma and discuss its presentation, nature, types and treatment with reference to a brief review of literature.

Branchial Fistula

<p>Branchial cleft anomalies comprise approximately 30% of congenital neck mass and present as cyst, sinus or fistula. They occur due to disturbance in the maturation of the branchial apparatus during fetal development. They are congenital lesions usually present in childhood, but they are usually diagnosed in later childhood or early adulthood because of enlargement or infection. Branchial cleft fistulae are usually diagnosed earlier than cysts. Correct diagnosis leads to proper management. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice. Second branchial cleft and pouch anomalies are commonest amongst all branchial cleft lesions, but complete second branchial cleft anomalies with external and internal opening is rare. Branchial anomalies with family history are also very rare. Here we present a case report of complete branchial fistula with family history which was managed by complete excision of fistula through transcervical and transoral approaches. 3 members of one family in 2 generations presented with branchial apparatus anomalies (father and his two children, elder son and younger daughter). All of them were having branchial fistula on right side of neck since birth.</p>

Parameatal urethral cyst is a scarce congenital condition that was first reported in two males in 1956, until now in reported literature only found less than 50 cases, in both adults and children. Our patient, case of parameatal urethral cyst in a 5 years old boy is reported. Complete excision with total removal of the epithelium of the cyst is required management for the treatment and prevention of cyst reocurrance. A 5 years old male with a cystic lesion around urethral meatus since birth. At least 5 month the parents complain distorted urinary flow and poor appearance, and no other urinary symptom, no history of trauma. On physical examination, cystic mass with spherical shape which was about 0.5 cm in diameter was found around external meatus. There was no inflammatory sign. And there was normal blood laboratory (blood counts and blood chemistry) and urine laboratory (urine analysis and urine culture). The patient undergo completely excision of the cyst under general anaesthesia, and remove all of the lining epithelium. Good appearance results were obtained after 2 months follow up, without meatal strictures and urine stream problems, and no postoperative complications or recurrence. Pathological : Squamous epithelial, granulation tissue with chronic inflamation. Parameatal urethral cyst is a very rare benign condition that is asymptomatic in most of the cases. It may be present since birth or appear later and is prevalent in young males. Its etiology remains unclear and treatment is by complete surgical excision to avoid complications and recurrence. Good cosmetic results were obtained in this case without any recurrence at two months follow-up.
