Neglected wooden foreign body in the parotid gland: A case report.

Foreign body anywhere in the body can be a diagnostic challenge to a doctor, especially if it is wooden and hardly symptomatic. A foreign body in the parotid gland, whether from the oral cavity or through the skin is extremely uncommon. We are presenting a case of a wooden foreign body in the parotid gland of a 61-year-old patient who did not want to be examined or treated initially as it was not causing him any troublesome symptoms.

A Case Report and Review of Literature: Cribriform-Morular Variant of Papillary Carcinoma.

We describe a case of cribriform morular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma which is a rare subtype. We report a case of a 26 year old female who presented with a thyroid tumour without colonic manifestations. She underwent a total thyroidectomy with central compartment neck dissection. Her histopathology report showed Cribriform-Morular variant, Papillary carcinoma of the left lobe of thyroid. Focal Angio-invasion was present. Even in sporadic presentations of these variants, screening colonoscopy, genetic counselling and screening of family members should be invariably considered as many a time thyroid malignancy presents many years prior to colonic manifestations.

A rare case of sinonasal glomangiopericytoma post operative accidental diagnosis and managment-A case report.

INTRODUCTION: Glomangiopericytoma is a rare neoplasm of low malignant potential. It is a rare type of haemangiopericytoma located in nasal cavity. This neoplasm has good prognosis and complete surgical excision is treatment of choice. This case report is representing one such neoplasm. This reporting is done in line with the SCARE criteria (Agha et al., 2018 [1]). CASE PRESENTATION: We presenting a case of 54 year old male patient from upper socioeconomic status who presented at our institution with history of surgery (endoscopic sinus surgery with Septoplasty) 15 days back. A Final histopathology report suggested glomangiopericytoma. Since primary surgery was not done as per oncologic principals, patient was advised for adjuvant radiation. At our institute patient was evaluated again. Revision surgery was done. Patient was discharged next day. DISCUSSION: Glomangiopericytoma is a rare neoplasm with incidence of less than 0.5% of all neoplasms of sinonasal cavity. Prognosis is very good after complete surgical excision. It often confuses clinicians with nasal polyps. Here also patient was operated initially considering as benign polyposis outside. Patient was re-operated again to ensure the complete clearance. CONCLUSION: This is the typical case of converting dual modality treatment to single modality with the help of knowledge, communication, transparent team work. This also a rare type of neoplasm and by reporting this rare case we are contributing to data pool of nasal tumors where lack of reporting is major obstacle in the formation of uniform treatment guidelines.
