It can lead to widening bile ducts. usually detected incidentally in asymptomatic patients. There are indications transformation into duct cancer or hepatocellular carcinoma.Aim study: The aim study draw attention little known, - von complexes and sensitize medical professionals implicat...

BACKGROUND Selective immunostaining for calretinin labels the innermost layer of the outer root sheath of normal hair follicles, which is difficult to distinguish with hematoxylin-eosin staining. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine whether immunohistochemistry for calretinin allows identification of cutaneous adnexal tumors with follicular differentiation towards cells of the out...

The retrorectal space is an uncommon seat for neoplastic masses. Retrorectal hamartoma or tailgut cyst (TGC) is an uncommon developmental cystic lesion occurring in this space which mostly occurs in middle-aged females. We recently cared for a 16-year-old girl who presented with vague lower abdominal pain and occasional constipation. Per rectal examination revealed an extraluminal mass bulging ...

composed of varying proportions of mesenchymal tissues including cartilage, fat, epithelial, and connective tissue combined with entrapped respiratory epithelium (1). Pulmonary hamartomas are the most common benign neoplasms of the lung, accounting for 7-14% of benign solitary pulmonary nodules (1, 2). Pulmonary hamartomas are most commonly presented as incidental lung nodules found on a routin...

Tailgut cyst, or retrorectal cystic hamartoma, is a rare congenital lesion found in the presacral space. The lession has been infrequently reported in medical literature. It is most common in middle-aged women and is rare in children. We report a case of a tailgut cyst mimicking a rectal duplication in an 8-year-old child. Excision and histological examination of the mass confirmed the tailgut ...

Congenital mesoblastic nephroma is a stromal neoplasm of infancy. It has been referred to as mesenchymal, cystic or leiomyomatous hamartoma. These tumors are centered around the hilus of the kidney. Mesoblastic nephromas need to be distinguished from other pediatric renal neoplasms as these lesions are treated by complete surgical excision without chemotherapy unless gross residual tumor remain...

Mesenchymal liver hamartomas are benign tumors that can cause life-threatening abdominal distension and carry a risk for malignant transformation. In this case report, we describe a 13-month-old male with Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) who presented with multiple mesenchymal liver hamartomas causing severe intra-abdominal mass effect. Imaging revealed six large multi-locular cystic lesions, ...
