Abstract Lipoblastoma is a tumor of adipose tissue that usually occurs in young children. Most lipoblastomas occur on the extremities, trunk, and head and neck, and most have rearrangements of the 8q region. We describe a lipoblastoma in a 12-month-old boy who presented with a rapidly enlarging scrotal mass. Electron microscopy revealed features consistent with immature adipocytes, and cytogenetic analysis revealed the following karyotype: 57,XY,+4,+6,+7,der(8)t(8;12) (q22;q13), +der(8)t(8;12) (q22;q13), +9,+10,+12,−16,+17,+der(18)t(8;18)(q22;q23),+19,+20. Interestingly, the breakpoint on chromosome 12 (q13) is the same as that seen in lipoblastomas. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of such a complex karyotype in lipoblastoma and adds to the expanding list of karyotypic abnormalities seen in such tumors.

Abstract Anatomical variations of the celiac trunk and its branches are particularly important from a surgical perspective due to their relationships with surrounding structures. We report here a particularly rare variant involving absence of the celiac trunk in association with trifurcation of the common hepatic artery. These variations were found in an adult male cadaver. We perform a review of the literature and discuss the clinical and embryological significance of these variations. Recognition of celiac trunk and hepatic artery variations is of utmost importance to surgeons and radiologists because multiple variations can lead to undue complications.

We present the case of a 13-year-old boy with a congenital anterior urethral diverticulum. This is a rare condition in males which can lead to obstructive lower urinary tract symptoms and urosepsis. Diagnosis is by urethroscopy and radiological imaging. Surgical treatment can be open or endoscopic. Long-term followup is required to check for reoccurrence of the obstruction.
