Primary Angiosarcoma of Breast: a Case Series of Rare Disease.

Primary angiosarcoma of breast (PAB) is a very rare disease and it accounts for only 0.05% of all malignant breast tumors. We present the clinical radiological and pathological features, treatment given, and outcome of this rare disease in our institute in a period of 5 years, aiming at contributing to the knowledge of prognostic factors of this rare disease.

The Great Imitator: Cervicofacial Actinomycosis Masquerading as Cancer Recurrence.

Cervicofacial actinomycosis being one of the unusual infections is of high relevance to a head and neck onco-surgeon. As the diagnosis may be made difficult by its nature to mimic malignancy and egregiously low culture sensitivity, the differential diagnosis for a lesion appearing to be malignant after irradiation does not usually include actinomycotic infection. Treatment usually requires a long-term antibiotic course after confirmation with histopathology, albeit surgical debridement is required in selective cases.

Intracardiac Leiomyomatosis Arising from a Uterine Leiomyoma - A Rare Case Requiring a Multidisciplinary Laparotomy-Thoracotomy Approach.

A 37-year-old lady, when being evaluated in gynecology for pain in the abdomen, was found to have a pelvic mass suspicious of ovarian cancer with markers negative. There was an ovarian vein thrombosis extending to the right atrium in the contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan. A fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography ruled out any other lesions.

Frozen section detected perineural spread in a grossly normal nerve away from tumor changes the surgical plan in parotid cancer.

Perineural spread (PNS) through the facial nerve is a well-recognized pathway of spread in parotid cancers. Negative margins in the facial nerve are important in the total extirpation of cancer. We report a case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the parotid which was involving only the upper temporofacial division of the facial nerve at the periphery clinically and per-operatively.

Testicular torsion - symptomatology and outcomes of 101 scrotal explorations.

Objective: The objective was to study the symptomatology of testicular torsion of patients operated in our hospital and their operative results in relation to the duration of symptoms.

Materials And Methods: Data of all patients operated for acute scrotum at all ages over a 14 months' time were collected from hospital records. Symptomatology and operative results were studied.
