Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma, also known as Evans tumor, is a low-grade sarcoma that most commonly arises in the deep soft tissue of the proximal extremities or trunk in young adults. It is very rare in the viscera as a primary site, with only a few cases reported in the literature. Here, we present a case of Evans tumor occurring in an unusual and rarely reported location; an intrathoracic mass arising from the diaphragmatic pleura.

Hydatid cyst is ecchinococcal disease caused by tapeworm echinococcus, most commonly by metacestode stage of echinococcus granulosus. Liver is the most common organ to be aff ected followed by lungs and spleen. Primary hydatid cyst in the pelvis is rare. We report a case of primary isolated pelvic hydatid cyst diagnosed incidentally during laparotomy performed for adnexal mass. Key words: adnexae, albendazole, echinococcus, hydatid cyst, laparotomy

ABSTRACT:A rare case of cystic schwannoma occurring in the brainstem in the absence of von Recklinghausen's disease is reported. This appears to be the first case in the literature of a cystic schawnnoma ever described in this location. While the exact origin of this tumor in this unusual location remains uncertain, different hypotheses are discussed and the possible origin of this tumor from perivascular elements in the brainstem is seriously considered.

Echinococcus granulosus complex is the causative parasite of hydatid disease, endemic to regions with stock breeding and agriculture. We present a rare case of primary pancreatic hydatid disease in a 20-year-old female who had complaints of upper abdominal pain and epigastric fullness. The typical radiological ndings in ultrasound, CT and MRI helps to differentiate this lesion from other cystic lesions in the pancreas. Therefore this lesion should be kept as a differential in endemic areas

AbstractHydatidosis is a medically and veterinary important parasitic disease that is endemic in many parts of the world. Unilocular hydatid cysts may develop in almost any part of the body. Up to 70% of hydatid cysts are located in the liver, followed by 25% in the lungs. Cerebral hydatidosis is an uncommon manifestation of the disease, occurring in less than 1/1000 infected hosts, yet diagnosis does pose a problem. We have reported an exceptionally rare case of cerebral hydatidosis in cattle. This is the first report to describe the characteristic pathological features of the cerebral hydatidosis in cattle caused by the G1 genotype of Echinococcus granulosus. Genotypic analysis was performed on a hydatid cyst from a cow originating from southern Iran, based on the sequence analysis of the cox1 mitochondrial gene.
