RESUMO
Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a malignant tumor involving the salivary glands, rarely developing in the nasopharynx. It is a slowly evolving entity with strong local aggressiveness and a high tendency to recurrence. We report the case of 23-year-old patient with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the nasopharynx presenting with exophthalmos in which radiation therapy is the sole therapeutic option.
RESUMO
Scrotal verrucous carcinoma is a rare entity. It is rarely metastatic especially in lymph nodes. Imaging is important for local extension in order to guide the surgical procedure. The diagnostic is histological. The treatment is based on surgical excision. The prognosis is relatively good, but local recurrences are frequent. We report a case of scrotal verrucous carcinoma in a 49-year-old man evolving for 1 year.
RESUMO
Small bowel lymphoma accounts for 10%-30% of gastro-intestinal tumors. Clinical presentation is not specific. CT scans helps the diagnosis showing some characteristic appearances such as wall thickening of the loops, enlarged lymph nodes and infiltration of mesenteric fat. Pseudoaneurysmal intestinal dilatation is uncommon and may cause bowel obstruction which is a diagnostic and therapeutic emergency. We report the case of a 73-year-old man, who presented for occlusive syndrome revealing hail lymphoma. Pseudoaneurysmal intestinal dilatation is an uncommon presentation of lymphoma that should evoke the diagnosis especially when associated to wall thickening of the loops and lymphadenopathy.

Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney rarely affects adults. It has an aggressive evolution, with a high rate of recurrence and mortality. We report the case of a 58 year old man with clear cell sarcoma of the kidney and discuss the benefit and value of medical imaging for management.
