Glioblastoma with Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor like Component: Rare and Enigmatic.

Glioblastoma (GBM) with Primitive Neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) like features is an extremely rare tumor showing dual features of malignant glioma and primitive neuroectodermal tumour occurring mostly in adults. It poses diagnostics dilemma to the neuropathologist and treating oncologist team because of its rarity, tendency to spread to cerebrospinal fluid and dismal prognosis. We have described this tumor in a 11 years old male child in this case report.

A Rare Case of Bilateral Serous Cystadenofibroma in a Malignant Disguise.

Ovarian cystadenofibroma is a rare benign tumor comprised of both epithelial and stromal components. It is one the unique tumors which is usually mistaken for malignancy on imaging because of partly solid and partly cystic appearance. Frozen section and subsequent histopathological examinations play a vital role in arriving at definite diagnosis and thus avoiding unnecessary extensive surgical procedure.

An extremely rare case of malignant jejunal mesenteric inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor in a 61-year-old male patient: A case report and literature review.

Introduction: A mesenteric inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare solid tumor of intermediate malignant potential that affects children, adolescents, and young adults predominantly. IMT is mostly encountered in the lung. We report a case of malignant jejunal mesenteric IMT in a 61-year-old male patient who presented with vague abdominal pain and generalized weakness.

INI-1-Deficient Sinonasal Carcinoma: Case Report with Emphasis on Differential Diagnosis.

SMARCB1-deficient sinonasal carcinoma is a newly described entity, with less than 100 reported cases. It is characterized by basaloid or rhabdoid morphology and is diagnosed by complete loss of nuclear SMARCB1 (INI-1). The morphologic appearance, specific immunophenotypic markers, and unique molecular make-up distinguish this entity from other various malignant neoplasms.

Schwannoma originating in the soft palate: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Schwannomas are relatively uncommon, benign, slow-growing neoplasms, which are derived from schwann cells that can arise from any cranial, peripheral, or autonomic nerves. The involvement of the palate is a rare presentation and hardly reported in the literature.

Case Presentation: Here, we report the case of a 39-year-old woman with a history of a foreign body sensation in the throat and difficult swallowing.

Efficacy of fine-needle aspiration biopsy in diagnosis of breast cancer: a retrospective study of 303 cases in Bahrain.

Breast cancer is a leading cause of death in many countries worldwide and breast lesions remain a common diagnostic dilemma. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) has been suggested as the most important, first line, minimally invasive measure in the management of patients with breast lesions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of FNAB in patients with breast lesions by comparing the diagnostic accuracy of cytology results with that of the definitive histological examination outcome and also to investigate the added value of a single aspirator experience to the overall diagnostic precision and compared with the internationally published results.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of paranasal sinuses.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors IMTs are clinico-pathologically distinctive but biologically controversial entities; they rarely affect the head and neck region and usually follow a benign clinical course after radical excision. We reviewed the literatures of IMTs and present a rare case of IMT arising from the maxillary paranasal sinus of an 11-year-old girl. Moreover, we elaborate on the morpho-immunophenotypic characteristics of this lesion.
