Gastric Mucormycosis Masquerading as Gastric Malignancy.

Mucormycosis is an opportunistic fungal infection usually seen in immunocompromised patients. We report a case of gastric mucormycosis in an immune-competent lady that mimicked a gastric malignancy, presenting a diagnostic challenge. A high index of suspicion is required for the diagnosis and successful treatment of this potentially life-threatening condition.

The diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in the management of a double giant parathyroid adenoma.

Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrine disorder of the parathyroid gland. It is mostly seen as a single gland adenoma in up to 85% of the cases with the excess production of parathyroid hormone. Double adenomas although reported are very rare and double giant parathyroid adenomas are even rarer.

A Rare Case of a Recurrent Giant Solitary Fibrous Tumor of the Ciliary Body of the Orbit.

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are uncommon spindle-cell tumors of mesenchymal origin initially described in the pleura and subsequently in other extra-pleural sites. These tumors are categorized as tumors of 'intermediate malignancy' under the World Health Organization classification of soft tissue tumors. SFT was virtually non-existent or misdiagnosed until its characteristic features, particularly the strong and diffuse immuno-reactivity to CD 34 were described.

A Rare Case of Multiloculated Cervical Thymic Cyst Masquerading as Tuberculous Adenitis.

Cervical thymic cysts are among the rarest cysts found in the neck. They usually occur during infancy and childhood, and they are extremely rare in adults. They may be found at any level of the pathway of normal thymic descent, from the angle of the mandible to the superior mediastinum.
