Cytomorphology of Pleomorphic Fibroma of Skin: a Diagnostic Enigma
Case Report Cytomorphology of pleomorphic fibroma of skin: A diagnostic enigma ABSTRACT Pleomorphic fibroma (PF) is a benign, polypoid, or dome‑shaped cutaneous neoplasm with cytologically atypical fibrohistiocytic cells. We describe the cytomorphological features of PF retrospectively with histopathological diagnosis in a 38‑year‑old male who presented with 3 × 1.5 cm swelling in the soft tissues of the thigh for 6 months. This lesion is benign despite the presence of pleomorphic or bizarre cells. We review the differential diagnosis of PF with other mesenchymal tumors. To the best of our knowledge, cytomorphological features on fine needle aspiration cytology of this tumor are not yet documented in literature. Key words: Fine needle aspiration cytology; pleomorphic cells; pleomorphic fibroma. Introduction thigh. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) was done and slides were stained with Giemsa stain.

Lymphangioma Circumscriptum of the Vulva- a Case Series Dermatology Section
DOI: 10.7860/JCDR/2021/47435.14553 Case Series Lymphangioma Circumscriptum of the Vulva- A Case Series Dermatology Section RASHMI S MAHAJAN1, YOGESH S MARFATIA2, ATMAKALYANI R SHAH3, KISHAN R NINAMA4 ABSTRACT Vulval dermatoses pose a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for the dermatologists. Lymphangioma Circumscriptum (LC) is a form of lymphangioma affecting the skin and subcutaneous tissues that is characterised by benign dilation of lymphatic channels. This uncommon condition is known to occur over the chest, mouth, axilla, tongue, and rarely in the vulva. In this series, authors present three cases of LC of vulva in women between the age group of 45 to 60 years with late-onset fluid-filled lesions over the vulva. The first case had history of hysterectomy prior to onset of lesions, the second case had a spontaneous onset of lesions while the third was a suspected case of pelvic tuberculosis with secondary lymphangioma. Keywords: Lymphangiectasia, Vulvar, Vulval epithelium INTRODUCTION Disorders of vulval epithelium are a confusing spectrum of disorders. They are broadly classified as-1) Inflammatory, 2) Ulcerative and Bullous, 3) Infections, 4) Benign tumours and 5) Malignancies. It is essential to know the exact aetiology to plan successful therapy. LC is a benign lymphatic malformation characterised by dilation of lymphatic vessels in the skin and subcutaneous tissue with lesions erupting locally as isolated or grouped translucid, thin-walled vesicles filled with a clear liquid [1]. These pathological lymphatic malformations have no communication with the normal lymphatics [2]. The precise cause of LC is not established. It could be congenital or acquired as a result of damage to the lymphatic vessels secondary to various aetiologies. -

Oral cavity involvement is exceptionally rare, with only a few cases reported to date. Case presentation: A 24-year-old woman with complaints of swelling in the left floor of her mouth for 6 months was referred to our institution. Her swallowing function was slightly affected; however, she did not have pain or tongue paralysis. Enhanced computed tomography revealed a 2.8 × 1.8 × 2.1 cm-sized well-defined, solid, heterogeneous nodule above the mylohyoid muscle. The mandible appeared to be uninvolved. The patient underwent surgery via an intraoral approach; histopathological examination revealed a glomus tumor. The patient has had no evidence of recurrence over 4 years of follow-up. Conclusions: Glomus tumors should be considered when patients present with painless nodules in the floor of the mouth.

Angiofibroma of Soft Tissue: a Newly Described Entity; a Case Report and Review of Literature
Open Access Case Report DOI: 10.7759/cureus.6225 Angiofibroma of Soft Tissue: A Newly Described Entity; A Case Report and Review of Literature Zafar Ali 1, 2 , Fatima Anwar 1 1. Histopathology, Shifa International Hospital, Islamabad, PAK 2. Pathology, Shifa College of Medicine, Islamabad, PAK Corresponding author: Zafar Ali, [email protected] Abstract Soft tissue angiofibroma is a relatively recent addition to the ever growing list of benign soft tissue tumors. It usually presents as soft tissue mass in the lower extremities in relation to joints and tendons. The tumor is composed of spindle-shaped fibroblastic cells with arborizing capillaries. We report a case of a 55-year-old female with a lump at the dorsum of left foot. Grossly the tumor was well circumscribed with yellow white cut surface. Microscopically the tumor showed typical features of angiofibroma with myxoid areas near the periphery of the lesion. Prominent vasculature is the integral part of the tumor with numerous small, branching, thin-walled blood vessels, accompanied by medium-sized ectatic vessels. Immunohistochemically the tumor cells are positive for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA). The location of the tumor, lack of cytological atypia, mitosis, and infiltrative margins help differentiate it from a sarcoma. Categories: Pathology Keywords: angiofibroma, ema, soft tissue Introduction Angiofibroma of soft tissue is a recently described entity; it was first described in 2012 by Mariño-Enríquez and Fletcher as a benign fibrovascular tumor that resembles a low grade sarcoma [1]. These tumors typically present in the extremities as a slow growing painless lump. There is a slight female predilection. -

Thong2 · Char Loo Tan1,3 Received: 12 July 2018 / Accepted: 18 July 2018 / Published online: 23 July 2018 © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract A 38-year-old, previously healthy man presented with blood-stained saliva and epistaxis. A 3 mm nasopharyngeal lesion was found. A biopsy was performed and microscopic examination revealed a Kaposi sarcoma. The patient was subsequently found to be positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The diagnosis of Kaposi sarcoma in the presence of HIV infection advanced his disease to Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Primary manifestation of Kaposi sarcoma in the nasopharynx is extremely rare. The histologic differential diagnosis of Kaposi sarcoma in this unusual site, especially without the clinical history of immunosuppression, is broad. Awareness that nasopharynx can be a primary involvement site of Kaposi sarcoma and serves as index diagnosis of AIDS is important given its serious clinical implication.
