Sclerosing mucoepidermoid carcinoma a unique case

Sclerosing mucoepidermoid carcinoma is an unusual type of mucoepidermoid carcinoma with special histological features which differ from those of the classic type of mucoepidermoid carcinoma. We report the case of a 32-year-old male, who reported to the Vydehi Institute of Dental Sciences, Bangalore, India, with an asymptomatic swelling over the right parotid region which had been present for the previous two and a half years. Histopathological sections of the tumour mass showed mucous and epidermoid cell nests in a dense, hyalinised, sclerotic stroma. A diagnosis of sclerosing mucoepidermoid carcinoma was made. A superficial parotidectomy was performed on the patient and he has remained disease free to date

Mayer-Rokintansky-K–ster-Hauser Syndrome of m–llerian agenesis

Mullerian agenesis, a congenital malformation of the genital tract is the second most common cause of primary amenorrhoea. Its etiology is poorly understood. It may be associated with renal, skeletal or other abnormalities. The diagnosis is often made radiologically or laparoscopically. Three-dimensional ultrasound is a useful diagnostic tool. The hormonal profile and karyotype in these patients are normal. The management varies, but the treatment of choice is non surgical aimed at creating a neovagina. These patients require psychological support due to the implications for reproduction. Here, we present the case of a 24-year-old married woman with primary amenorrhoea with this malformation
