ABSTRACT

Key Clinical Message: It is important to consider WDLS as a potential cause of tongue lesions and include it in the list of differential diagnoses. When performing surgical intervention, it is crucial to remove enough tissue around the lesion, and regular follow-up is necessary due to the high risk of recurrence, despite its rarity, when margins are positive. Abstract: Liposarcoma (LS) is the most common soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) that arise from embryonic mesenchymal tissue. Though these sarcomas commonly arise at retroperitoneal locations and extremities, the appearance of these tumors in the head and neck region is rare, with the tongue as a preferred site. As per WHO 2020, LS is classified into four subtypes based on morphology, namely, Well-differentiated liposarcoma (WDLS), Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLS), Myxoid liposarcoma (MLS), and Pleomorphic liposarcoma (PLS). WLS is the most common variant among all. Here, we had a case of 55 years old male with the complaint of swelling in the left lateral border of the tongue with the preliminary diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma. The patient underwent a left partial glossectomy with adequate margins. Further evaluation of the lesion revealed a clear cell tumor that was ultimately confirmed as liposarcoma on immunohistochemistry that showed tumor cells positive for S100, CDK4, and MDM2 with 2% Ki-67. Postsurgical status of the patient was evaluated by F18 FDG PET CTscan, which was normal. Currently, the patient is under regular follow-up.

ABSTRACT

Primary breast liposarcoma is an extraordinarily rare breast malignancy. Histological subtypes including dedifferentiated are confirmed after a thorough histopathological and immunohistochemistry analysis. Liposarcoma of the breast can mimic other breast lesions. Long-term follow-up is needed due to the risk of local recurrence and delayed dedifferentiation.

ABSTRACT

Primary invasive breast carcinoma with neuroendocrine differentiation is an uncommon presentation. We hereby report a case diagnosed as invasive ductal carcinoma with neuroendocrine differentiation in a 52-year-old female patient who presented with a painless right breast lump.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: and Importance: Extra Mammary Paget's disease (EMPD) of the vulva, a rare postmenopausal entity, is responsible for less than 1% of all vulvar neoplasms. Invasive EMPD of the vulva with underlying squamous cell carcinoma is even rare. CASE PRESENTATION: A 70-year-old para 5 postmenopausal lady presented with a history of vulvar itching and a gradually progressive reddish lesion on genitals unresolved by topical therapies for one year. Vulvar biopsy confirmed the presence of pagetoid cells with a focus of squamous invasion. DISCUSSION: The clinical presentation is often non-specific and typically presents as a pruritic skin rash in the vulva. Optimal management of EMPD of the vulva is unclear, but wide surgical excision is considered the standard therapeutic approach. Local recurrence in EMPD is common even with aggressive radical procedures. Constant follow-up is required to ensure early diagnosis of recurrences. CONCLUSION: Early biopsy of the suspicious eczematous lesion can help in definitive diagnosis and timely treatment of EMPD.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Invasive mammary Paget's disease (MPD) is an extremely rare eczematous eruption on the nipple and areola with an invasion of the dermis by Paget cells. This entity can often be misdiagnosed and overtreated for invasive carcinoma of the breast. CASE: A 34-year woman presented with a 2-year history of right nipple eczema and right axillary lump for a month. Breast ultrasound revealed dilated intra-nipple lactiferous duct and an enlarged right axillary lymph node. Histopathology from biopsy revealed MPD with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) whereas final histopathology after right modified radical mastectomy revealed Invasive MPD with DCIS and axillary metastasis. She underwent adjuvant chemotherapy and is under hormonal therapy with complete remission for 18 months. CONCLUSION: Awareness of invasive MPD is important to avoid misdiagnosis and probable radical treatment. Close follow-up is warranted due to limited knowledge regarding treatment and prognosis of invasive MPD.

ABSTRACT

Renal cell carcinoma can have lung metastasis even after a long interval of radical nephrectomy (16 years after nephrectomy in our case). If any pulmonary nodule is diagnosed with a history of RCC, pulmonary metastasis of RCC should be suspected and should be appropriately treated.

ABSTRACT

Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the breast is an extremely rare invasive breast carcinoma with rapid progression and worse prognosis. Careful assessment and diagnosis of the entity should also be considered in a rapidly progressing breast tumor.

ABSTRACT

Malignant transformation of mature cystic teratoma (MCTO) is a rare entity. Even rarer is the transformation of MCTO into undifferentiated carcinoma. We report a case of an 80-year-old woman with undifferentiated carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma component originating from mature cystic teratoma of the ovary.
