Chromosomal rearrangement involving the KMT2A gene is one of the most common genetic alteration in acute myeloid leukemia. A total of 135 different KMT2A rearrangements have been identified, where 94 translocation partner genes are now characterized at the molecular level. Of these 94 translocation partner genes, 35 translocation partner genes occur recurrently, but only 9 specific gene fusions account for more than 90% of cases. Translocation of KMT2A with SEPT5 gene at 22q11.2 is rare, with few reported cases in the literature. In this report, we are presenting a case of KMT2A-SEPT5 fusion in de novo acute myeloid leukemia with t(11;22)(q23;q11.2) with a review of the literature.

A 13 years old boy admitted with the complaint of progressive exophthalmos and gradually decreasing vision on right eye, also occasional headache and deformity on the right fronto-orbital region. Radiological & clinical findings revealed a case of frontal osteoma in the right frontal sinus extending up to right frontal lobe, eroding right roof of the orbit. Complete excision of the tumor mass was possible surgically. Biopsy confirmed a case of osteoma. Below is a discussion on diagnosis & management of frontal osteomaPulse Vol.9 January-December 2016 p.45-48

Primary extradural mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (MCS) is a very rare intraspinal tumor. Proper clinical evaluation with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) followed by biopsy of the mass can confirm the diagnosis. Since MCS has a high tendency of recurrence and metastasis, the prognosis is guarded. We report a 52 years old male with primary extradural MCS in the lumbosacral region (L5-S3). Subtotal excision and biopsy were performed which confirmed the diagnosis. The patient received post excisional radiotherapy but expired after four months. Though rare, this tumor should be kept in differentials which helps in early diagnosis and thus can be treated with radical excision of the mass along with postoperative radiotherapy.
