Papillary intralymphatic angioendothelioma, previously known as Dabska's tumor, is a very rare entity in children involving the skin and soft tissue. It is a low grade tumor characterized by papillary endovascular proliferations of atypical endothelial cells and anastomosing vascular channels in the dermis. We present a 3-year-old male child, with a history of swelling and mild pain in the right upper gluteal region, progressive in nature for 1 month duration. On examination, the swelling was soft to firm and mildly tender. Radiology was suggestive of Sacro-coccygeal teratoma. Grossly, it was an ill-defined grey brown lesion measuring 3.5 × 3 × 2 cm. Microscopy showed lesion arranged in papillary pattern with slit like vascular channels and intra luminal proliferations of hobnail like endothelial cells. Morphology and immunohistochemical studies revealed a diagnosis of Papillary intralymphatic angioendothelioma.

Background: Anti-CD19 CAR T-cells have revolutionized outcomes in relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphomas. Long-term follow-up underscored the role of hematological toxicity in non-relapse mortality, largely driven by infections, leading to the development of the CAR-HEMATOTOX (HT) score for predicting neutropenia. The European scientific community (EHA/EBMT) later reached a consensus, defining a new entity: immune effector cell-associated hematotoxicity (ICAHT).

Pneumopericardium (PPC) is defined by the presence of gas in the pericardial cavity, often leading to cardiac tamponade and a high mortality rate. This report describes a case involving a 33-year-old man found deceased a few meters from a knife, his clothes intact, with no resuscitation attempt made. A knotted scarf was tightly fastened around his neck, without ligature mark.

Venous aneurysms are fairly rare entities as compared to arterial aneurysms. Very few cases of spontaneous external jugular venous aneurysms are documented in literature without any previous history of trauma. Bilateral involvement is a further scarce finding.
