ABSTRACT

Infantile desmoplastic fibromatoses are benign fibrous tissue tumours, non -metastasizing but locally aggressive and with high likelihood of recurrence. Many cases occur in young children between 18 months and 3 years and commonly present as painless mass of the submandibular region. The maxilla is rarely involved. Through this report and a review of literature, we are going to study clinical, pathological and prognostic characteristics of this affection. We report here a case of an aggressive desmoplastic fibroma arising in a 20-months-old infant originating in the left anterior maxillary wall. Clinical examination of the face revealed a non tender, firm, expansion of the left maxilla of 2.5 cm of diameter. The diagnosis of DF of the maxilla was made on the basis of histological features on biopsy specimen. No other location of the fibromatosis was found. The child had a favourable course. DF is an intraosseous, non metastasizing and locally aggressive fibrous tumour. Although its benignity it could engage vital prognosis since it can extend into vital organs

ABSTRACT

Background: Mixed mullerian tumours are uncommon endometrial neoplasms that are composed by a combination fo mesencymal elements and epithelial elements. They own their denomination to the mullerian origin of their components wich derive from the paramesonephric ducts


According to the benignity of the malignity of each component, four types of mixed mullerian tumours are individualised. Adenosarcoma is composed of benign glandular elements and sarcomatous, usually low-grade, stromal elements


Aim: We report a case of an endometrial adenosarcoma in a 59-year-old-woman


Clinicopathological caracteristics and the etiopathogeny of this uncommon neoplasm will be discussed


Case: A 59 year old women complained metorrhagia assearated pair since three months. Vaginal examination showed an incresed valure. Copathological U.S and abdominer CT showed an important. No ather tumer were detected hysterrchomy with dilated annexctny were performed. Pathological examan concluded to tummor with animation of mesenchynal and lepthel elements
