Intramuscular Hemangioma

Intramuscular hemangiomas are rare benign vascular neoplasms. IMH accounts for less than 1% of all hemangiomas. These neoplasms commonly occur in trunk and extremities but are rare in head and neck region. The present case is a 17-year-old female patient, who presented with a painless, slowly enlarging mass in left sided upper neck for 4 years. Investigations were suggestive of vascular neoplasm. She underwent excision of the mass in toto under general anesthesia. Postoperative period was uneventful. Histopathological examination of the mass revealed it as mixed type of intramuscular hemangioma. She did not have any signs of recurrences on her last follow-up at 6 months postoperatively. This case report discusses the rare IMH arising from thyrohyoid strap muscle.

Collecting Duct Carcinoma

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), is the most common kidney cancer, that accounts for approximately  90% of all adult renal malignancies with 30% of patients presenting with metastasis at initial diagnosis.There are several reports of metastases developing after 10-20 years even if curative nephrectomy has been made. Clear cell (60%-75%), papillary (10%-15%), chromophobe (5%), and collecting duct carcinoma are well characterized subtypes of RCC.Renal cell carcinoma mainly metastasizes to the lungs,the bones,the liver,the lymph nodes and brain.Metastasis to the head and neck region is rare.In this case report we present a tonsil metastasis after 5 years of nephrectomy.Surgery with histopathological examination confirmed that metastasis of clear cell carcinom.The patient was successfully treated by surgery and referred to oncology.Later he was out of our follow-up.

<p class="abstract">In this case report a bony swelling was noticed clinically which had a cystic presentation in CT imaging. After surgical removal it was sent for histopathological examination and was diagnosed as dermoid cyst. Dermoid cyst is rarely encountered lesions of head and neck region so most frequently misdiagnosed. Though this lesion is very rare but should be considered as a differential diagnosis while evaluation cystic lesions of head and neck region.</p>

<p class="abstract">Benign calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe or pilomatricoma is rare benign skin tumours, typically seen in head and neck region. This is supposed to arise from hair follicle matrix cells. Though head and neck is the commonest area involved by this tumour, only 4.5% cases have been reported in the pinna. Neck is most commonly involved followed by cheek, scalp, pre auricular and peri orbital areas. Here we report a case of pilomatricoma over medial surface of pinna in a 20 years old female. She had the swelling which was gradually increasing for the past 5 years. Histopathological examination following excision biopsy confirmed the diagnosis.</p><p class="abstract"> </p>

ABSTRACT Introduction Epidermoid cyst is a rare cyst in head and neck region. We report a case of epidermoid cyst of tongue presented in a girl child. Case report A female child presented with a swelling in her tongue. The swelling was excised completely. A diagnosis of epidermoid cyst of tongue was made. The diagnosis was confirmed by histopathology. There was no recurrence after 6 months follow-up. Conclusion Epidermoid cyst of tongue is a rare tumor of tongue. Complete excision does not cause recurrence.

Synovial sarcoma is a malignancy not usually encountered in the head and neck region. We describe a case of synovial sarcoma of the posterior pharyngeal wall in a 14-year-old girl. The mass was completely excised via the transoral route. Postoperatively, the patient received irradiation to 60 Gy. At 40 months of follow-up, the patient remains disease-free.

Schwannoma is a tumor which has neuroectoderm origins, is hard, well-circumscribed, encapsulated, and slow growing benign cranial tumor, and may autonomously grow out of the nerve sheath of peripheral nerves. It is mostly seen in the head and neck region. In the paranasal sinus and nose areas, it is seen at a rate of 4%. The diagnosis is mostly made after histopathological examination. In this paper, a Schwannoma case observed in the nasopharyngeal region was presented in a 20-year-old female who had complaints of sleeping with open mouth, snoring, foreign body feeling in throat, and swallowing difficulties. The tumor was extracted via transoral approach. No recurrence was observed during follow-up over the next year. This case presentation is presented for the first time in the literature in English.

An extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a rare neoplasm characterized by monoclonal proliferation of plasma cells without features of multiple myeloma. Most EMPs occur in the head and neck region, especially in the aerodigestive tract. We herein report a case of an EMP arising from the nasal inferior turbinate. The mass was surgically removed, and a short cycle of radiotherapy was performed after the surgery. There was no recurrence of the tumor after 1 year of follow-up. These result may be useful for physicians who encounter similar situations in clinical practice.

Immunohistochemical Studies

Anastomosing haemangioma is a rare benign vascular neoplasm, which may mimic angiosarcoma histologically. We here present a case of anastomosing haemangioma arising from the kidney. This patient presented with a large kidney mass and adrenal mass. The clinical and radiological findings were suspicious for renal cell carcinoma with metastasis. Radical nephrectomy and adrenalectomy were thus performed. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical studies concluded a diagnosis of anastomosing haemangioma of the kidney and concurrent adrenal cortical adenoma. It is important to differentiate this tumor from other borderline or malignant vascular neoplasms.

Clinical Appearance

Lelomyosarcoma(LMS) is an uncommon malignant spindle cell tumor of the head and neck region. It is extremely rare in the oral cavity that arises from smooth muscle differentiation. It may arise as primary, radiation-associated, or metastatic tumor. The clinical appearance of these tumors can be deceptively benign and can be mistaken for non-malignant conditions. Here We present a case with atypical leiomyoma of the mandible in a 40-year- old man who referred with complaint of pain and swelling in his jaw. He underwent surgery and histology and immonohistochemestery studies confirmed the diagnosis. After 6 months recurrence occurred. Histologic examination confirmed leiomyosarcoma so he was managed with surgical excision followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy without any recurrence or metastasis after 2 years of follow-up.
