A rare case of malignant eccrine spiradenoma mimicking carcinosarcoma.

Malignant eccrine spiradenoma is an extremely rare neoplasm of adnexal origin. It almost always originates from a preexisting long standing eccrine spiradenoma. We present a case of malignant eccrine spiradenoma arising from benign counterpart and having both carcinomatous and sarcomatous differentiation.

Primary Paediatric Renal Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Ewing sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) is a high-grade malignant neoplasm commonly affecting bones of the thoracic region. Primary Ewing sarcoma/PNET of the kidney is exceptional; it commonly affects young adults and is rarely reported in children. Here we describe a case of renal PNET in a 10-year-old girl who presented at our institute with haematuria and abdominal lump.

Preoperative Ultrasound Guided Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology of Ovarian Lesions- Is It a Rapid and Effective Diagnostic Modality?

Introduction: The deep seated ovarian lesions unapproachable by unguided aspiration cytology were easily done under ultrasound guidance. It gave a before hand cytological diagnosis of the lesion to the surgeon determining the modality of treatment for the patient.

Aim: To find the diagnostic accuracy of the method of ultrasound guided cytological assessment of ovarian lesion.

Giant Cell Tumour of Soft Tissue in Neck: An Uncommon Tumour in an Uncommon Location.

Giant cell tumour of soft tissue is an extremely rare tumour. It is thought to be the soft tissue counterpart of giant cell tumours of the bone due to its histological and immunohistochemical resemblances. Almost 80% of these tumours occur in upper and lower extremities; neck is a very rare location.

Ectopic Paratubal Adrenal Cell Rest Associated with Mucinous Cystadenoma of Ovary.

Ectopic adrenal cortex is a rare entity. Usually found in male children; commonly located around kidney, retroperitoneum, spermatic cord and para-testicular region. Rarely, adults with heterotopic adrenal glands are described.

Retroperitoneal giant ancient schwannoma.

Ancient schwannoma is a rare variant of benign peripheral nerve sheath tumor, often morphologically mimicking malignancy. Retroperitoneum is an uncommon location. We describe one case of giant retroperitoneal ancient schwannoma.

Primary renal synovial sarcoma: a rare tumor with an atypical presentation.

Primary renal synovial sarcoma (PRSS) is a very rare tumor, first described by Argani, et al. The exact incidence of PRSS is not yet known. Here we present a case of PRSS diagnosed by histopathology, supplemented with immunohistochemistry.

Testicular fibroma of gonadal stromal origin with minor sex cord elements, presenting with hydrocele.

Testicular fibroma of gonadal stromal origin is a rare benign tumor of testis which usually presents as a slow growing testicular mass. Only 25 cases of testicular fibroma have been reported in the literature. Presence of minor sex cord elements in this tumor is even rarer.

Primary osteosarcoma of breast, a rare case.

Mammary sarcomas are very uncommon and make up less than 1% of all primary breast malignancies.Primary osteosarcoma of the breast is extremely rare and represents 12.5% of mammary sarcomas.

Lymphangiomatous polyp of the nasal cavity: a rare presentation.

Lymphangiomatous polyp of the nasal cavity is a very rare condition. We are reporting a case of a unilateral nasal mass presenting with noisy breathing during sleep, change of voice, watery nasal discharge, and anosmia in a 5-year-old boy. The mass was removed via a transnasal endoscopic approach, and a diagnosis of lymphangiomatous nasal polyp was established by histopathology.

Role of intraoperative imprint cytology in diagnosis of suspected ovarian neoplasms.

Background: The present study was conducted to assess whether cytology can help in rapid diagnosis of ovarian neoplasms and thus facilitate individualised treatment.

Methods: A prospective investigation was performed on 30 cases of suspected ovarian neoplasms. Imprint smears were made intraperatively from fresh samples from various representative areas, and stained with Leishman Giemsa for air-dried smears, and with hematoxylin and eosin and Papanicolaou for alcohol-fixed smears.
