A meningioma is a rare primary CNS tumor that tends to present more so in females in a slowly progressive fashion. The cavernous sinus and cerebellopontine angle are uncommon locations for meningiomas. We present a case of a meningioma in a 60-year-old female presenting to the emergency department for a sudden onset headache, vertigo, facial paresthesias, and chest pain.

Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) is a benign mesenchymal proliferative lesion of the breast. PASH is postulated to be hormonally induced and predominantly occurs in premenopausal women and postmenopausal women on menopausal hormone therapy. Clinical presentation varies from screen-detected lesions to palpable masses.

Introduction And Importance: Benign osseous metaplasia (BOM) is a rare entity, with only few cases reported in the breast. Here we present an unusual case of pleomorphic lobular carcinoma of the breast infiltrating BOM, discuss potential mimics and review the literature.
Case Presentation: An 86 year-old female presented with right breast lump for two weeks.

Background: Primary osteosarcoma of the breast (POB) is an extremely aggressive and heterogeneous neoplasm that originates from nonepithelial elements of the mammary gland and accounts for fewer than 1% of breast cancers and fewer than 5% of all sarcomas.
Case Presentation: An 83-year-old Chinese woman went to our hospital because of a palpable mass she had had for 8 months in the left breast accompanied by persistent dull pain for 10 days. This mass was initially misdiagnosed as a degenerating fibroadenoma and was graded as probably benign (BI-RADS category 3) by ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT) plain scan and contrast enhancement of chest.

Carney complex (CΝC) is a very rare, autosomal dominant, hereditary syndrome. Seventy percent of individuals with CNC have germline inactivating or deleting mutations of the gene [currently known as protein kinase cAMP-dependent type I regulatory subunit α (), located at the 17q22-24 chromosome level], with 30% of cases presenting with phosphodiesterase gene mutations. A member of the lentiginosis family, dermatological features include: skin pigmentation, cutaneous/mucosal myxomas, usually diagnosed by the age of 20 years (neonatal presentation is exceptional, requiring a meticulous differential diagnosis).
