Invasive breast cancer with Paget's disease: A rare case report from a tertiary facility in Northern Tanzania.

Paget's disease of the breast is a rare pathology resulting from abnormal proliferation of glandular epithelial cells in the nipple-areolar epidermis. The disease is named after James Paget, a pathologist and surgeon, who reported a relationship between a nipple rash and mammary gland tumors in 1874. Early diagnosis may be quite difficult.

Case series of high-grade soft tissue sarcoma of the lower limb with delayed diagnosis: Experience at a tertiary hospital in northern Tanzania.

Introduction And Importance: Soft tissue sarcoma is an uncommon form of cancer with poor prognosis. Early diagnosis and treatment are vital for improving the treatment outcomes.

Case Presentation: We report a series of high-grade soft tissue sarcomas of the lower extremity with delayed diagnosis to gain insight into the presentation, treatments and outcomes for this rare disease and to determine whether limb-salvage surgery yields reasonable outcomes.

Case series of inguinal pedicle-flap to cover hand ulcers: Our experience from northern Tanzania.

Introduction And Importance: The superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap is a widely used and acceptable option of free tissue transfer for small and large defects due to its ease of dissection and adjustable pedicle length.

Case Presentation: Herein we present our experience with two similar cases of hand ulcers with differing aetiologies that were managed successfully at our tertiary centre by general surgeons to cover the defects in order to salvage the hand.

Clinical Discussion: The pedicle groin flap was first described in 1972 and still indicated and used widely in hand resurfacing.
