Extraskeletal Ewing's sarcoma (EES) is a rare soft tissue tumor that is morphologically indistinguishable from skeletal ES. We report a case of a 25-year-old female with recurrent EES/primitive neuroectodermal tumor of right breast with imaging findings on mammogram, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging breast, and positron emission tomography-computed tomography.
RESUMO
A 39-year-old male with no known co-morbid conditions presented with gradually increasing bilateral breast lumps for 1.5 years. Clinically, tender subcutaneous masses were detected. Mammograms revealed masses on both sides that on ultrasound were hyperechoic and showed internal vascularity. An MRI was suggested to assess the extent of the disease that confirmed bilateral masses but was otherwise inconclusive. Core biopsy revealed evidence of panniculitis with likely autoimmune aetiology. Evaluation of autoimmune markers was carried out that was positive and multidisciplinary team discussion concluded the diagnosis as lupus mastitis. Male breast pathology and lupus mastitis are both uncommon conditions, making lupus mastitis of male breast an extremely unusual presentation. However, its close clinical and radiological similarity with malignancy makes it important in spite of its rarity. Here we report a case of bilateral lupus mastitis in male breast with its radiological features.
RESUMO
Rhabdomyosarcoma is a soft tissue neoplasm arising from primitive embryonal mesenchyma. Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma mostly affects children younger than 10 years of age, but it also occurs in adolescents and young adults. Pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare variant that almost always arises in adults older than 45 years of age. Mesentery is a rare site for botyroid embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma and on extensive search we found only one case of a botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma in a child of 2 years. We report a rare case of botyroid embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma occurring in the mesentery of a 30 year old female.
