Rare Case Report

Introduction. Liposarcomas are malignant tumors derived from fat tissues. Liposarcoma of the paratesticular tissue is rare. Case report. We presented a 51-year-old man with liposarcoma of paratesticular tissue and the spermatic cord, mimicking a testicular tumor. Ultrasound examination of this scrotal mass was hyperechogenic and homogeneous and separated from the testis and epididymis. The patient was operated, and the orchidectomy was performed. Histology revealed well-differentiated lipoma-like liposarcoma of the paratesticular tissue and spermatic cord. After a 6 month follow-up the patient did not show any evidence of tumor-progression or recurrence. Conclusion. Liposarcomas of the paratesticular tissue and seminal cord represent a rare type of tumors, often misdiagnosed preoperatively. Therapy should include radical surgical excision, usually radical inguinal orchiectomy. If the margin status is in doubt, adjuvant radiation should be performed. Local relapse is common and may occur after several years, so follow- up period has to be sufficiently long.

Rare Case Report

AbstractLiposarcoma in the inguinal region though rare are clinically significant lesions. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult since the clinical findings are very similar to that of inguinal hernia. We report a rare case of Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord in 85 year old male, clinically diagnosed as left sided indirect inguinal hernia. Surgical excision specimen showed multiple globular lipomatous masses which were yellowish and grey tan with areas of myxoid degeneration and necrosis seen. Microscopic examination showed adipocytes arranged in lobules with numerous blood vessels, lipoblasts and myxoid stroma confirming the diagnosis of myxoid liposarcoma. He is on regular follow up since two years without any recurrence or metastasis. Our case report highlights the importance of sampling and examination of fatty masses in the inguinal region to rule out the possibility of liposarcoma as they are mistaken for lipoma at surgery.

Liposarcomas are malignant tumors derived embryologically from mesodermal tissues. An unusual site of presentation is the spermatic cord, presenting as an inguinal or scrotal mass. We report a rare case of a liposarcoma of the spermatic cord, mimicking a testicular tumor. The patient was operated, and an orchidectomy, including the tumor, was performed. To our knowledge, there are about 185 similar cases reported in the literature.

Chronic Wrist Pain

Synovial Sarcoma (SS) is a rare and aggressive sarcoma that usually occurs around the knee joint; it rarely involves the hand. Joint involvement by SS is extremely rare. We report a case of wrist intraarticular SS presenting with chronic wrist pain. The patient underwent surgical excision alongside with local radiotherapy and chemotherapy. After 24 months of follow up, there was no recurrence or metastasis. Intraarticular SS should be in a differential diagnosis list of chronic wrist pain even though it is extremely rare.

Infantile Fibrosarcoma

Infantile fibrosarcoma is a rare type of soft tissue sarcoma seen in children usually less than 2years of age. Few cases of giant infantile fibrosarcoma have been reported in literature. We report a rare case of a giant multi-nodular infantile fibrosarcoma in the left anterolateral chest wall in a 7-year-old boy. The tumour was said to have been recurrent twice for about 6 years. At presentation patient was evaluated and was commenced on 6 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with vincristine, adriamycin and cyclophosphamide (VAC) regimen to alternate with Ifosfamide/Etoposide (IE) regimen with very good response. Thereafter, had a wide local excision of the tumour and then had 4 more cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. His 6months follow up showed no evidence of tumour recurrence. Infantile fibrosarcoma is said to be chemo-sensitive tumour with very good response, though surgical excision is the main treatment of choice and overall it is said to have a good prognosis.

CONTEXT: Bluish discoloration and swelling of the scrotum in newborns can arise from a number of diseases, including torsion of the testes, orchitis, scrotal or testicular edema, hydrocele, inguinal hernia, meconium peritonitis, hematocele, testicular tumor and traumatic hematoma. Forty-two cases of scrotal abnormalities as signs of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage were found in the literature. CASE REPORT: We present a case of scrotal hematoma due to adrenal hemorrhage in a newborn. Conservative treatment with clinical follow-up was adopted, with complete resolution within 10 days. The possible differential diagnoses are reviewed and discussed.

Rare Case Report

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTMs) are ubiquitous and are being increasingly reported as human opportunistic infection. Cutaneous infection caused by mixed NTM is extremely rare. We encountered the case of a 46-year-old female, who presented with multiple discharging sinuses over the lower anterior abdominal wall (over a previous appendectomy scar) for the past 2 years. Microscopy and culture of the pus discharge were done to isolate and identify the etiological agent. Finally, GenoType Mycobacterium CM/AS assay proved it to be a mixed infection caused byMycobacterium szulgaiandM. intermedium. The patient was advised a combination of rifampicin 600 mg once daily, ethambutol 600 mg once daily, and clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily to be taken along with periodic follow-up based upon clinical response as well as microbiological response. We emphasize that infections by NTM must be considered in the etiology of nonhealing wounds or sinuses, especially at postsurgical sites.

Chorea gravidarum is the term given to chorea occurring during pregnancy. Here, we report a case of 24 year old primigravida at gestational age 38 weeks 3days ,without any signicant past & family history who presented with chorea gravidarum for the rst time in third trimester. On detailed evaluation no etiology was identied. On follow up in postpartum period, her choreiform movements have reduced in intensity, but is still persisting pointing towards an idiopathic origin.

Rare Case Report

ABSTRACT Fibroosseous lesions of the jaws, including juvenile ossifying fibroma (JOF), pose diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties due to their clinical, radiological, and histological variability. There are two histological varieties of it, one as psammomatoid type and second as trebacular type; here, we present a trebacular type, which is a rare variety. After the clinical examination, radiological and histological analysis, it was diagnosed as juvenile trebacular ossifying fibroma. Although JOF is an uncommon clinical entity, its aggressive local behavior and high recurrence rate means that it is important to make an early diagnosis, apply the appropriate treatment, and, especially, follow-up the patient over the long term.

Cardiac angiosarcomas are rare malignant tumors, predominantly affecting the right heart with poor survival outcomes. The current mainstay of treatment consists of surgery with or without chemotherapy, but often yields limited results with local relapse or metastatic recurrence. This case report describes 2 patients with primary angiosarcoma located in the right atrium. One patient received neo-adjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy; both were scheduled for surgical resection. The course of disease is described followed by a comprehensive review of the literature.
