Renal metastasis from osteosarcoma is a rare entity, and tumour thrombus is even rarer. To date, only 15 cases of osteosarcoma with tumour thrombus have been reported in the literature. We present a case of an 18-year-old female diagnosed as having right distal femur osteosarcoma, later presenting with renal osteosarcoma with IVC thrombus.

Sarcomatoid variant of urothelial carcinoma (SVUC) of the renal pelvis is a rare entity. To the best of our knowledge, around 25 cases of this neoplasm have been reported in the literature to date, most of which were of high stage. The inferior vena cava tumour thrombus, which is a hallmark of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), may rarely be found in urothelial carcinoma of renal pelvis. In this report, a case of SVUC associated with tumour extension to inferior vena cava is documented. This association has been encountered in only one previously reported case. The possibility of urothelial carcinoma of the renal pelvis should therefore be included in the differential diagnosis of tumour thrombus of the inferior vena cava.

Cell Sarcoma

Clear cell sarcoma is a rare mesenchymal tumor with melanocytic differentiation, firstly described by Enziger in 1965. It accounts for less than 1% of all soft tissue sarcomas and occurs predominantly in the extremities of adults. Primary clear cell sarcoma of bone is even rarer; current literature consists of only 13 cases with a mean age of presentation of 45-year-old, ranging from 18 to 81. Because of the overlapping expression of melanocytic markers, the differential diagnosis should be addressed with metastatic malignant melanoma and metastasis from clear cell sarcoma of soft parts. Essential for the diagnosis is the evidence of translocations t (12;22) or t (2;22) resulting respectively in EWSR1/ATF1 and EWSR1-CREB1 gene fusion. Clinical history and radiological assessment could help discriminate between bone or soft parts origin. We report an unusual case of clear cell sarcoma of distal femur involving a 13-year-old patient. Histological sections showed a malignant neoplasm composed of nests of uniform cells separated by fibrous septa, showing strong immunoreactivity for melanoma triple cocktail. Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction revealed the presence of the fusion product EWSR1-ATF1, confirming the diagnosis of clear cell sarcoma of bone. Our purpose was to revise the current literature in order to find common clinicalradiological features to this rare entity. To the best of our knowledge, our case is the first bone clear cell sarcoma arising from the distal femur in a pediatric patient described in the literature: it highlights the importance of considering this rare entity in the differential diagnosis of primary bone tumor, although extremely rare and of the use of molecular means to confirm the diagnosis.

Abstract. A carotid artery pseudoaneurysm in an irradiated neck is a rare entity with possible devastating results and management should be multidisciplinary. We present a successful endovascular treatment of a late carotid artery pseudoaneurysm following patch endarterectomy and cervical radiotherapy.

Histologic Types

Castleman's disease is a benign lymphoid neoplasm first reported as hyperplasia of mediastinal lymph nodes. Some authors referred to the lesions as isolated tumors, described as a variant of Hodgkin's disease with a possibility of a malignant potential and others proposed that the lymphoid masses were of a hamartomatous nature. Three histologic variants and two clinical types of the disease have been described. The disease may occur in almost any area in which lymph nodes are normally found. The most common locations are thorax (63%), abdomen (11%) and axilla (4%). We report two separate histologic types of Castleman's disease which were rare in the literature, mimicking sigmoid colon tumor and Hodgkin lymphoma. The diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of this rare entity is discussed.

Coronary sinus aneurysm (CSA) is an extremely rare entity. Herein, we present an unusual case of an 18-year-old symptomatic female patient with a giant CSA. Secondary vena cava aneurysms were also manifested. The final diagnosis was confirmed by enhanced computed tomography (CT) and cardiac catheterization. As far as we know, it is the first case that such a giant CSA coexists with secondary vena cava aneurysms. Considering the complexity of postoperative reconstruction, we believe that heart transplantation may be the optimal way for treatment. The patient received anticoagulant due to the superior vena cava (SVC) thrombosis while waiting for a donor.

<p>Coronary artery fistula (CAF) is a rare entity. Sometimes it may associate with mild diffuse or segmental coronary ectasia. CAF with giant coronary artery is exceptionally rare. We present a unique case of a 49-year-old female patient with a giant right coronary artery of diffuse ectasia coexisting with a fistula draining into the right ventricle. To our best knowledge, CAF with diffuse coronary ectasia of such giant size has never been reported. The patient was treated successfully by resection of the dilated right coronary artery, fistula closure, and coronary artery bypass grafting.</p>
