Acral cutaneous neural angiomatous hamartoma: a variant of palmar cutaneous hamartoma?

Hamartomas are benign malformations composed of tissue elements normally found at that site, but which are growing in a disorganized fashion. Cutaneous hamartomas containing only neural and/or neurovascular elements are very rare, with very few case reports in the literature. Herein we describe a case of congenital neural angiomatous hamartoma of the skin.

Vulvar hibernoma.

A 35 year old woman presented with 18 months history of a painless, soft, well-circumscribed, vulvar subcutaneous lump which measured approximately 7 cm. The lesion was completely excised and microscopically was consistent with a hibernoma. According to the available literature in English, this is the first reported case of hibernoma of the vulva.

Melanoma markers-negative primary melanoma with melanoma markers-positive metastasis.

Concordant loss of all 3 commonly used melanocytic markers (ie, S-100, HMB-45, and Melan-A) in a primary malignant melanoma with expression of the same in the metastatic lesion is very rare. To the best of the authors' knowledge, they documented the second case of this unusual and rare phenomenon.

Gangrene due to axial torsion of a Giant Meckel's Diverticulum containing multiple stones in the lumen: a case report.

Meckel's diverticulum is the most common congenital anomaly of the small intestine. Common complications related to a Meckel's diverticulum include haemorrhage, intestinal obstruction and inflammation. Gangrene due to axial torsion and enteroliths of a Meckel's diverticulum are the rarest complications that have been reported in the literature.
