Basaloid follicular hamartoma (BFH) is a rare and benign adnexal tumor that resembles basal cell carcinoma (BCC) may present with different clinical manifestations. A mutation in the PTCH gene, involved Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, could be associated pathogenesis of this neoplasm. We describe case 7-year-old girl multiple papules on her face.

Dermatoscopic features of spiradenoma—a benign adnexal neoplasm—have not been described. We present a case of spiradenoma occurring on the occipital scalp (Figure 1A, 1B) that showed a structureless pattern and blue clods on dermatoscopy. The vascular pattern of serpentine, branched vessels (Figure 2) in combination with blue clods suggest a basal cell carcinoma (BCC) [1]. However, the blue clo...

ER: estrogen receptor IMDC: intramammary ductal carcinoma PCAC: primary cutaneous apocrine carcinoma PR: progesterone receptor INTRODUCTION Primary cutaneous apocrine carcinoma (PCAC) is a rare cutaneous adnexal tumor that presents a diagnostic challenge, with histology and staining mirroring those seen in mammary ductal carcinoma and other adnexal neoplasms. We report the first case, to our kn...

The ovarian artery supplies oxygenated blood to the ovary. Pathological conditions such as cysts, neoplasm, long mesovarium and adnexal venous congestion may lead to the ovarian torsion. Long-term arterial, venous or lymphatic obstruction of the ovary causes a critical reduction in tissue blood flow and permanent tissue damage [1]. So, early diagnosis and treatment of ovarian torsion is importa...

Appendiceal tumors are rare, late diagnosed neoplasms that may not be differentiated from adnexal masses even by advanced imaging methods and other diagnostic procedures. They may be asymptomatic and remain undiagnosed until surgery. We report a case of an 80-year-old postmenopausal woman presenting with a pelvic mass and a history of weight loss. The patient underwent laparotomy which revealed...

Microcystic adnexal carcinoma is a rare, locally aggressive neoplasm with both eccrine and follicular differentiation and a high probability of perineural invasion of the centrofacial region. Given the histopathological features of this tumour, early diagnosis is essential for adequate management. This report refers to a case of microcystic adnexal carcinoma of the nasogenial region, with infil...

Wolffian tumor is a rare neoplasm, arising from the remnants of the mesonephric duct, such as the broad ligament, tube, ovarian hilum, peritoneum and mesosalpinx. It is synonyms include Female adnexal tumor of probable wolffian origin (FATWO), wolffian adenoma and wolffian adnexal tumor. It is thought to be a benign lesion, although in some cases metastasis or recurrences have been reported eve...

The discovery of displaced granulosa cells in the fallopian tube is concerning for a granulosa cell neoplasm and can lead to further surgical intervention. Discerning the risk of neoplasm can be challenging, even with immunohistochemical staining of CD56, a highly sensitive marker of granulosa cell neoplasm. A 48-year-old underwent an uncomplicated hysterectomy and bilateral salpingectomy for s...

Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is a distinct form of malignant skin neoplasm. The clinicopathological significance of cutaneous adnexal involvement in EMPD has not been investigated in detail. Surgical specimens were obtained from 53 patients with primary EMPD. Tumor involvement of cutaneous adnexal structures was evaluated using histological parameters. The degree of involvement was score...
