RESUMEN
Malignant rhabdoid tumor is an uncommon pediatric tumor that often arises from the kidneys but can also develop in other soft tissues including the orbits, where it is known as atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor. Orbital location is exceptional, with just a few reported cases. Imaging allows for an accurate diagnosis, but histological confirmation is required. The treatment is yet unclear but nearly often surgical, either with or without chemotherapy. In this report, we present a case of a neonate of 1-month-old with an orbital primary malignant rhabdoid tumor with synchronous cerebellar location. The patient was unable to undergo surgery, he had chemotherapy, and unfortunately died 1 week after following palliative treatment. We will illustrate this clinical experience and point out the importance of radiological imaging in the assessment of this uncommon condition.
RESUMEN
Accessory breast tissue (supernumerary breast tissue) is due to the absence of regression of the primitive milk lines during embryonic life which extends from the axilla to the groin. It is mostly located in the axilla where it is often confused with the axillary extension of the breast, or any pathological process occurring in armpits. Ectopic mammary glands should not be misdiagnosed as it can potentially undergo the same pathological processes that occur in a normally located breast including benign or malignant breast tumors. We report the case of an intracystic papilloma arising from left axillary accessory breast tissue in a 63-year-old woman. The principal symptom was pain in a palpable left axillary mass without inflammatory signs. Subsequent imaging and histopathologic examination proved it to be a papillary tumor in ectopic breast tissue.
