Left supraclavicular parathyroid carcinoma: diagnostic difficulties through a case report.

Parathyroid carcinoma is a very rare malignant tumour of the parathyroid gland, accounting for less than 0.005% of all cancers, and less than 1% of the aetiologies of primary hyperparathyroidism. This case report aims to describe the incidental discovery of a non-secreting parathyroid carcinoma in a left supraclavicular location and to report on the diagnostic difficulties encountered, together with a review of the literature and current management issues.

Intramasseteric Solitary Myofibroma: A Case Report.

Solitary myofibroma or infantile myofibroma is a rare spindle cell neoplasm that generally affects infants before the age of 2 years but cases in young children and adults have been described. Although the location of infantile myofibroma in the oral and maxillofacial region has been described, the intramasseteric location of the lesion is very uncommon. A thorough assessment of histopathological and immunohistochemical characteristics is necessary to have a correct diagnosis.

Solitary infantile myofibromatosis of the petrous bone: a diagnostic pitfall in uncommon location illustrated by a case report.

Infantile myofibromatosis (IM) is the most common fibrous disorder of infancy and early childhood. Solitary intracranial involvement is rare and often unrecognized. This makes its early diagnosis and adequate management difficult.

Necrotizing Otitis Concealing Carcinomas of the External Auditory Canal.

External auditory canal Carcinomas are rare and aggressive tumors and their prognosis depends on early diagnosis. Their clinical similarity to necrotizing otitis is a source of error and therefore of diagnostic delay. Hence the interest of our study which consists in providing ENT specialists and all practitioners with the necessary clinical, evolutionary, radiological, biological and histological elements to avoid diagnostic errors.

Association of trichilemmal and basal cell carcinomas: a case report.

Proliferating trichilemmal tumor (PTT) is a benign tumor arising from the isthmic portion of the hair follicle. Malignant transformation in PPT is very rare and unusual. Indeed, only about sixty well-documented cases have been found in the English literature.
