Dermal nonneural granular cell tumor: a case report.

Dermal nonneural granular cell tumor is a rare neoplasm of uncertain histogenesis that Le Boit and colleagues originally described in 1991. It arises commonly from the back, extremities and head and neck. To the best of our knowledge, only 50 cases have been reported in adults in the English literature.

Osteolipoma of the ankle: A rare case report.

Osteolipoma are uncommon benign soft tissue tumors, deriving from fat cells metaplasia. We report a case of 47-year-old female with a progressively enlarging, painless mass over the anteromedial aspect of left ankle, explorations showed a calcified masse and histopathologic diagnosis was in favor of osteolipoma, which was resected surgically without any recurrence after 2 years follow up. This tumor can affect different regions of the body but ankle location is very rare and must be distinguished from other diagnosis essentially sarcoma.

Teratocarcinosarcoma of the cheek: a case report.

Teratocarcinosarcoma is a rare and aggressive malignant tumor of uncertain histogenesis. It presents <1% of all cancers and ~3% of malignant tumors of the head and neck. It arises commonly from the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses.

[Coinfection with hydatid cyst and pulmonary tuberculosis].

Morocco is an endemic area for both hydatid cyst and tuberculosis (TB). The co-occurrence of these two diseases in lung is unusual, especially when localized in the same area. We describe the case of a patient with pulmonary hydatid cyst associated with tuberculosis infection where the diagnosis was unknown prior to surgery because TB tests were negative.

Radiation-induced chondrosarcoma of the scapula after radiotherapy for lung cancer: a case report and review of the literature.

Background: Radiotherapy associated with chemotherapy is a well-established treatment modality for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancers. Radiation-induced second malignancies, particularly radiation-induced sarcomas, are rare. Some authors reported a recent increase in the incidence of this rare complication, especially because of the improved prognosis and survival of patients after radiotherapy.
