Necrotizing sialometaplasia is a benign and self-limiting pathological entity that occurs in minor salivary glands, most frequently located on the border between hard soft palate. It has an unclear etiology, being associated with physical, chemical or biological injury, which would produce necrosis due to ischemia of glandular tissue subsequent attempt repair, histologically translates into met...

introduction uterine leiomyomas are the most common benign solid tumors of the female pelvis. retroperitoneal myomas are extremely rare and usually malignant with the common location being in the pelvis. case presentation our case involved a woman who was suffering from dysparonia and radiculating right pelvic pain. the pelvic examination revealed a palpable tender mass of about 3-4 cm in size ...

Myositis ossificans is a benign self limiting condition that usually related to trauma. Despite a clinically and histologically distinct entity, myositis ossificans still causes considerable difficulties in diagnosis. A 33-year-old Moroccan woman presented with a 2-month history of left inguinal inflammatory pain with limping gait, MRI examination suggested a malignant neoplasm such as soft tis...

Ossifying fibromyxoid tumor (OFMT) is a rare soft tissue tumor of unknown histogenesis. OFMT is a recently described, mesenchymal neoplasm originally defined as a borderline or low-grade malignant lesion. It consists of chains and trabeculae of ovoid cells swimming in a fibromyxoid stroma [1,2]. OFMT combines the clinical course of both peripheral and central ossifying fibromas. Like POF, it is...

Granular cell tumour (GCT), which is a rare benign soft tissue neoplasm, is mostly found in the skin and soft tissue but may develop anywhere in the body. There are less than 10 reported cases of mediastinal GCTs in the current literature. Furthermore, colonic GCTs have recently gained attention due to the increased public awareness on the importance of colonoscopy screening. We report a case o...

Soft tissue ganglions are commonly encountered cystic lesions around the wrist presumed to arise from myxomatous degeneration of periarticular connective tissue. Lesions with similar pathology in subchondral location close to joints, and often simulating a geode, is the less common entity called intraosseous ganglion. Rarer still is a lesion produced by mucoid degeneration and cyst formation of...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is an uncommon soft tissue neoplasm of uncertain biologic behavior, and rarely reported in the stomach. An eighteen-year-old male presented with a mass in the epigastrium of three-month duration. Clinical and radiological examination suggested a gastrointestinal stromal tumor or a leiomyoma in the lesser curvature of the stomach. On the basis of histomorpholog...

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a rare soft tissue neoplasm arising from mesenchymal cells, making up about 6% of all soft tissue tumours. Often found on the scalp, neck, trunk and extremities, it has an intermediateto low-grade malignancy potential except the fibrosarcomatous variant (high-grade), which is more likely to metastasize than other types. Here we present the case of a 46-year-ol...

Abstract Synovial sarcomas are rare malignant mesenchymal soft tissue tumors. We presented the case of a 53-year-old woman patient presenting with acute deep vein thrombosis, later diagnosed as synovial sarcoma femoral wall. The tumor was identified through cross-sectional magnetic resonance angiography and computed tomography, followed by ultrasound-guided core biopsy. report emphasized import...
