Rosai-Dorfman disease is a distinct non-malignant clinicopathological entity involving both nodal and extranodal tissue. Its clinical presentation can mimick other benign and malignant lesions. We report a lady presented with sinonasal mass suspicious of malignancy. Various investigation modalities were employed to achieve the diagnosis. She was managed conservatively and remained well. This report serves to highlight such rare clinical entity which follows a significantly different natural course than malignant disease despite sharing similar initial presentation.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 04 October’18.

The authors describe the case of a 44-year-old man with multilevel lumbar spinal Rosai–Dorfman disease (RDD), a rare clinical entity. To the authors' knowledge, there have been only 2 cases of lumbar spinal involvement of RDD (epidural) reported in the literature, and the current case is the third but the only one showing lumbar spinal intradural involvement of RDD. This case of RDD mimicked a meningioma both clinically and radiologically. The patient underwent a procedure in which the tumor was excised, and postoperatively the patient made a clinically acceptable recovery. Vertebral canal involvement of RDD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of vertebral canal tumors. Resection is an acceptable treatment option.

✓ Extranodal sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy involving the meninges is a rare clinical entity. The authors describe the unusual case of an occipital meningeal lesion in a 25-year-old man in whom they found inflammation of the occipital lobe mimicking lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma. The clinical similarities and differences are discussed.

Esophageal diverticulum with secondary bronchoesophageal fistula is a rare clinical entity that manifests as respiratory infections, coughing during eating or drinking, hemoptysis, and sometimes fatal complications. In the present study, we describe a case of bronchoesophageal fistula emanating from esophageal diverticulum in a 45-year-old man who presented with bronchiectasis. We summarize the characteristics of this rare condition based on a review of the relevant literature.

Choristomas are rare entities which are aggregates of microscopically normal cells or tissues in aberrant locations. They are a “heterotopic” rest of cells, as they appear as a tumor-like mass. Herein we report a case of cartilaginous choristoma in a 54-year-old male who presented with a swelling on right lower gingiva. The histopathological examination revealed features of a well circumscribed mass of mature cartilage in a dense fibrous connective tissue stroma.
