Verrucous carcinoma of the scrotum is an extremely rare disease and most cases are thought to result from poor hygiene and chronic inflammation. Currently, it has not been well characterized, the etiology, diagnosis and treatment remaining poorly understood. We present the case of a 50-year-old male patient diagnosed with verrucous carcinoma of the right hemiscrotum. Wide surgical excision was performed. Favorable outcomes can be achieved by surgery, even without any adjuvant therapy, but patients should be carefully followed up.

Advantages And Disadvantages

Keloids are a benign fibroproliferative disease with a high tendency of recurrence. Keloids cause functional impairment, disfigurement, pruritus, and low quality of life. Many therapeutic options have been used for keloids. However, the high recurrence rates have led to the use of adjuvant therapy after surgical keloid excision. There are different radiotherapy regimens available, and the advantages and disadvantages of each are still unclear. The aim of this review is to explain the appropriate radiotherapy regimen for keloids as well as discuss the recent reports on keloid management with radiotherapy. Adjuvant radiotherapy after surgical excision for keloids yields excellent local control with tolerable side effects. Hypofractionated radiotherapy with a BED of more than 28 Gy (α/β value of 10) after excision is recommended in the light of its biologic background.

<p>We aimed to present a case with abdominal wall endometriosis following cesarean section in this case report. <br />A 32 year old 39 weeks pregnant woman with G2P1 was admitted to gynaecology clinic with abdominal lump and pain in the midline. Her physical examination included a hard and painful palpable subcutaneous mass of 4x5 cm size in the midline of the abdomen which was semisolid and irreducible. <br />Under general anesthesia, the mass on the rectus muscle was excised with the healthy tissue around with the diagnosis of endometriosis during cesarean section and the pathological diagnosis was reported as endometriosis.<br />Surgical excision is the best treatment method in abdominal wall endometriosis. <br /><br /></p>

ABSTRACTMyoepithelial carcinomas of soft tissue origin are rare tumors in the pediatric population. Due to the rarity of this malignancy, very few cases have been reported in the literature, and a consensus on treatment has not been established. Most myoepithelial carcinomas of soft tissue present in the extremities and are treated with surgical excision followed by adjuvant radiotherapy. We report 2 cases of pediatric myoepithelial carcinoma presenting with vertebral involvement making complete surgical removal impossible. These patients underwent chemotherapy and adjuvant radiotherapy as the main treatment for their primary tumors.

Benign Histology

In this paper a case of vast desmoid tumor of the abdominal wall associated with familial adenomatous polyposis is reported. Desmoid tumors represent a particular type of fibrous neoplasms with a higher prevalence in females. They are extremely rare in the sporadic form, while they are found in about 10% of patients affected by familial adenomatous polyposis. Despite their benign histology and the absence of metastatic potential, they can be considered as fibrosarcomas with a low level of malignancy because of their locally invasive nature. The treatment of choice is surgical excision, as wide as possible, aimed at preventing recurrences, which are frequent in this tumor type. The usefulness of complementary therapies such as radiotherapy, hormone or chemotherapy, is not entirely clear.

AbstractSynovial sarcoma of the hypopharynx is a rare neoplasm. To date only 23 cases of synovial sarcoma of the hypopharynx have been reported in the literature. An additional case in an 18-year-old male is presented. This is the first case of synovial sarcoma in the hypopharynx to be reported in Singapore. The presentation was that of a mass in the hypopharynx; progressive dysphagia, intermittent hoarseness and gradual airway compromise. A CT scan was valuable in determining the site of origin and extent of the lesion. Histopathology was diagnostic. Treatment comprised of wide surgical excision of the tumour and post-operative radiotherapy.
