Cutaneous epithelioid angiomatous nodule is a rare benign vascular tumour of the skin with characteristic microscopic features, of which 65 cases have so far been reported after the initial description of this entity in 2004. We present here a new typical case of this rare lesion and provide a comprehensive review of all the previously published cases, delineating the salient clinicopathological features of this rare tumour.

Metastatic melanoma with unusual histopathology can be diagnostically challenging. One exceptionally rare cutaneous manifestation of metastases is blue-nevus-like metastatic melanoma (BNLMM). A 74-year-old male presented with a blue-gray lesion on his left helix in the same anatomical region of a previously resected lentigo maligna.

EWSR1/FUS::TFCP2-rearranged rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a rare tumor with an aggressive clinical course, a predilection for craniofacial bones, spindled and/or epithelioid histomorphology, and positive immunohistochemistry (IHC) for epithelial and myogenic markers, along with variable ALK expression. Herein, we present four additional cases of primary cutaneous TFCP2-rearranged RMS. Notably, one tumor (case 1) displayed a varied pathological spectrum, initially presenting as a low-grade spindle cell neoplasm, but progressed into a high-grade spindle/epithelioid tumor.

Introduction: Deep mycoses acquired by penetrating trauma to the skin can have varied and sometimes atypical morphological presentations resulting in diagnostic dilemmas and delay in treatment onset. Histopathology can be a useful tool in not only diagnosing but also differentiating various deep mycoses.
Aims And Objectives: To observe various morphological presentations and histopathological features of deep fungal infections.

Composite hemangioendothelioma comprises permutations of different histological patterns few of which have been found to have specific genetic alteration and immunohistochemical expression. It comprises retiform or epithelioid hemangioendothelioma-like areas, with a variable proportion of hemangioma or low-grade angiosarcoma-like areas. It was found to express neuroendocrine markers and was seen to have a worse prognosis in recurrence or distant metastasis.

Article Synopsis
- Mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis testis (MMTVT) is a rare type of malignant mesothelioma, making up less than 3% of cases, and is linked to asbestos exposure, similar to pleural mesothelioma, but tends to have a better prognosis.
- The case presented involves a 67-year-old man with a history of asbestos exposure, who exhibited scrotal pain and unusual skin growths; diagnostic methods confirmed the presence of mesothelioma through specific immunohistochemical markers.
- Genetic testing revealed common alterations associated with malignant mesothelioma, and imaging suggested primary MMTVT, indicating this case involved cutaneous metastases to
