2.One case of laryngopharyngeal recess fibroma.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2013;27(9):494-495
To report a case of laryngopharyngeal recess fibroma with the clinical and pathological characteristics. The laryngopharyngeal recess neoplasm was expect with pedestal laryngoscope. The postoperative pathologic diagnosis was laryngopharyngeal recess fibroma. The tumor did not recurred after one year following-up. Surgery is the first selection for treatment of patient with laryngopharyngeal recess neoplasm. A closed follow-up is needed.

PURPOSE: To report the first case of a solitary eyelid fibrofolliculoma and to review the literature. METHODS: A 37-year-old female patient visited the outpatient department with a lesion in the right upper lid that had been growing steadily for a year. The patient had visited the local clinic, and under the diagnosis of chalazion had received incision and curettage twice, but the lesion had recurred. RESULTS: The 5 x 5 mm lesion was located near the upper lid margin. It was a red, hemispheric, smooth nodule, relatively solid to palpation and not painful. Excision and biopsy were performed, and through a histological exam, the diagnosis of fibrofolliculoma was later confirmed. CONCLUSIONS: Solitary fibrofolliculoma is rare, and to the authors' knowledge, a lesion arising in the eyelid has not yet been reported. Fibrofolliculoma should be included in the differential diagnosis when a localized mass lesion arising in the eyelid is encountered.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the clinical features and treatment options of ossifying fibroma of paranasal sinuses.
METHOD:
A retrospective evaluation of twenty-three patients with ossifying fibroma of paranasal sinuses was presented. The choice of surgical operations on ossifying fibroma of paranasal sinuses was mainly decided by the location and area of ossifying fibroma. Radical operations were performed in twenty-one patients, ten of them through a lateral rhinotomy approach, eight through nasal endoscopic approach, four through Caldwell-Luc approach, one through coronal approach.
RESULT:
Two patients were performed partial resection by nasal endoscopic surgery. Diagnoses of all cases were confirmed by pathology. All patients outcomes were successful, no serious complication from the surgical technique occurred. Twenty cases were followed-up for six months to nineteen years. Two patients recurred.
CONCLUSION
Earlier diagnosis, CT scan, proper surgery, and radical resection are the keys to the treatment of ossifying fibroma of paranasal sinuses.

A mass excision surrounding the bronchial stump was performed to exclude malignancy in a 42-year-old man who had undergone a right lower lobectomy for lung cancer. The mass was identified as a cicatricial fibroma. Cicatricial fibromatosis, which is desmoid fibromatosis that arises in a surgical scar, is a well-known clinical condition. It consists of histologically benign neoplasms. Their occurrence after thoracic surgery is extremely rare. Biopsy or excision of suspicious lesions is very important for diagnosis. R0 resection remains the principal outcome for intra-thoracic desmoid fibromatosis. We report that a cicatricial fibromatosis in the subcarinal space was removed after suspicion of local recurrence at the bronchial stump follwing lobectomy for lung cancer.

Our experience includes seven cases of ossifying fibroma. The condition also appears in the literature under diagnostic names such as congenital fibrous dysplasia, congenital osteitis fibrosa, congenital fibrous defect of the tibia, and osteofibrous dysplasia of the tibia and fibula. The lesions develop in childhood and are located in the diaphysis of the tibia, or fibula. Of seven patients, we performed wide excision with free vascularized fibular graft in five cases, wide resection of the distal one-third of the fibula in one case, and curettage and bone graft in one case. Two of the patients who had wide excision with free vascularized fibular graft had recurrence. One case of recurrence occurred where incomplete wide excision with free-vascularized fibular graft was performed because the lesion was too close to the distal epiphysis of the tibia. One of the patients who had curettage and bone graft also had recurrence. It was concluded that children who have an ossifying fibroma requiring surgery can safely be treated with wide excision with or without free-vascularized fibular graft.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical and pathological features of paratesticular desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT), and to improve the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
METHODSOne case of paratesticular DSRCT was studied retrospectively and a considerable amount of related literature from Medline and Chinese journals reviewed. The patient was a 27-year-old man presenting with a painless testicular mass in the left hemiscrotum. On physical examination, a cystic mass was palpable while the testis was not in the left hemiscrotum.
RESULTSDuring the operation the paratesticular area was found full of multiple nodular tumor masses of various sizes ranging from 0.5 cm to 1.5 cm in diameter. Pathological examination showed the characteristic histological pattern of nests of small undifferentiated cells embedded in a dense fibrous stroma. The tumor presented an immunohistochemical feature of epithelial, mesenchymal as well as neural multidirectional differentiation. Following testicular tumor orchiectomy, chemotherapy was performed with DDP, VP16, ifosfamide and EPI. Three years follow-up found no tumor recurrence.
CONCLUSIONDesmoplastic small round cell tumor has a specific clinicopathologic stigmata, usually occurring in young males, for which surgical resection with chemotherapy is the treatment of choice. DSRCT located in the paratesticular region may have a better prognosis than its more frequently abdominal counterpart.

Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma (CPF) is a rare and benign primary cardiac neoplasm of unknown prevalence. The incidence of CPF in the left ventricle is lower than that in other parts of the heart. A 65-year-old female was referred to our cardiology department for evaluation of a cardiac mass of the left ventricle. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a 1.8 x 1.7 cm highly mobile round mass attached by a stalk to the apical inferior wall of the left ventricle with an echolucent area. The mass was successfully removed without any postoperative complications and was identified as a CPF.
