An adult, female red-tailed hawk () was presented for examination after being found unable to fly on a private citizen's property. Further diagnostic testing revealed a vascular, soft tissue mass arising from the serosal surface of the proximal proventriculus. Postmortem histological and immunohistochemical examination of the mass revealed an unusual mesenchymal tumor with features consistent with a leiomyoma or low-grade gastrointestinal stromal tumor.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare mesenchymal tumors that arise from interstitial cells of Cajal. Due to vague presentation, location and confusing imaging studies, they tend to mimic gynaecological tumors. They usually diagnosed intra-operative and histopathology followed by tumor specific receptors such as KIT, CD34, CD 117 and DOG 1 are mainstay of diagnosis of GIST.

Ewing's sarcoma (ES) is a mesenchymal origin malignant neoplasm that affects children and adolescents. It is the second most common type of bone sarcoma and accounts for approximately 1.5% of all childhood cancers with an annual incidence of 1 to 3 cases per million children under 16 years of age.

Cementoblastoma is a benign odontogenic mesenchymal tumor characterized by cementum production. Cementoblastoma is considered a relatively rare neoplasm with a predilection to the posterior region of the mandible. The main clinical differential diagnoses include hypercementosis, cemento-osseous dysplasia, condensing osteitis, idiopathic osteosclerosis, osteoblastoma, odontoma, and osteosarcoma.

Background: Non-meningothelial intracranial mesenchymal tumors are a heterogeneous group of central nervous system neoplasms endowed with great variability clinically and histologically. For this precise reason, significant difficulties exist in specifically cataloguing tumor entities with such distant characteristics and such uncertain clinical course.
Case Description: In an attempt to increase the knowledge inherent in this type of central nervous system lesions we report a case of a rare and unusual myxoid mesenchymal tumor of difficult anatomopathological classification characterized by rapid progression and optimal therapeutic response after combined surgical and radiotherapy treatment, with histo-molecular definition and DNA methylation profile.

Superficial angiomyxoma is a benign neoplasm of mesenchymal origin that affects both sexes with a slight predilection for males. It can present in a solitary or multiple form, within the framework of the Carney complex, an autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by the triad: cutaneous and cardiac myxomas, skin pigmentation and endocrine overactivity. They occur more commonly in the head and neck, trunk and lower limbs; the location in the genital region and particularly in the scrotum is very unusual.
