Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) is a rare, distinctive soft tissue neoplasm, typically occurring in the distal extremities of young adult patients. Although CCS shows melanocytic differentiation, it is now clear that it is clinicopathologically and genetically distinct from conventional malignant melanoma. The ‘osteoclast-rich tumour of the gastrointestinal tract with features resembling clear cell sarcoma of soft parts’ is an extraordinarily rare gastrointestinal neoplasm that shares some features of CCS, but differs from it in other ways. The historical, histopathological, ultrastructural, immunohistochemical and genetic aspects of these two tumours are reviewed in this article.

Malrotation of gut is a congenital anomaly and patients usually present in childhood. Occasionally it may present in adulthood. Patients are usually asymptomatic when malrotation of gut is detected during investigations or operation. Also it can cause longstanding abdominal symptoms, volvulus of gut. Rarely malrotation of gut may present with gastrointestinal neoplasm. We present a 60year old female presented with carcinoma caecum along with intestinal malrotation.

The involvement of the appendix by lymphomas, both primarily or secondarily, is extremely rare; primary lymphomas account for less than 0.02% of gastrointestinal neoplasm. We present the rare case of a patient who debuts with low gastrointestinal bleeding as the main symptom. Colonoscopy found an extra mucosal tumour on the posterior aspect of the ceccum and bleeding from the appendicular orifice. Primary appendicular tumour is confirmed on multislice computed tomography and laparoscopic right hemicolectomy is performed. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and was discharged on the 6th postoperative day. The pathology report shows a infiltration of the cecal appendix by grade 2 follicular lymphoma.

Most foreign bodies pass through the gastrointestinal tract uneventful. We report of a case of inadvertently ingested foreign body, which by endoscopy simulated a polyp and on biopsy reported as cancer, so the patient underwent an unnecessary major operation. This report emphasizes the importance of resemblance of foreign bodies with gastrointestinal neoplasm, and endoscopists, surgeons and pathologists should consider this entity in their daily practice.
