Abstract

Inflammatory pseudotumor of fallopian tube is an uncommon benign lesion. We report a case of an inflammatory pseudotumor of left fallopian tube in a 29 year-old woman. She presented with pain in lower abdomen, urinary frequency and dysuria. Contrast enhanced computerized tomography revealed a large necrotic mass in left adnexa abutting superior wall of urinary bladder and lower anterior wall of uterus. Left ovary was seen adherent to the posterior part of the mass. Serum CA-125 was within normal limit. The patient underwent tru-cut biopsy and subsequent excision of left adnexal mass. Histopathology revealed an inflammatory pseudotumor. We reviewed the clinical, imaging and pathological features of the inflammatory pseudotumor of fallopian tube and discussed its differential diagnosis. Keywords: Inflammatory, Pseudotumour, Fallopian Tube, Diagnosis, and Immunohistochemistry.

Abstract

Choriocarcinoma is a uncommon malignant genital neoplasm, which is classified as either gestational choriocarcinoma or nongestational choriocarcinoma. Gestational trophoblastic diseases were first described in 400 BC by Hippocrates. It is a rare and aggressive neoplasm. Choriocarcinoma have very different biological behavior, prognosis and metastasis. The aim of this case reports was to examine the clinical characteristics, Radiological and histopathological features of gestational choriocarcinoma patients with treatment of this rare disease. Keywords: Choriocarcinoma, Syncytiotrophoblasts.

Abstract

Pineal parenchymal tumours (PPTs) represent one third of the pineal region tumours. PPTs are subdivided into pineocytoma (PC), pineoblastoma (PB) and PPT with intermediate differentiation (PPTID). We report radiological, morphological and immunochemical features which permit to grade these tumours. Tumors of the pineal region can arise from multiple cellular origins and thus represent a very heterogeneous group of pathologies.Within the subgroup of pineal parenchymal tumors, there is a histopathologic spectrum ranging from pineocytoma to pineal parenchymal tumors of intermediate differentiation to pineoblastoma. The currentWorld Health Organization classification and the histopathologic features of the pineal parenchymal tumor subtypes with intermediate differentiation are described. Keywords: Pineal parenchymal tumours, Pineal parenchymal tumours with, Intermediate differentiation, Pineoblastoma and Pineocytoma.
