Penile Osteosarcoma: A Rare Extraosseous Site.

Primary penile extraosseous osteosarcoma (EOS) ranks the most uncommon amongst the differential penile masses, with only nine cases reported so far. In this report, we share the management of a 67-year-old Hispanic male who presented with a painful mass over his distal penile shaft and glans for the last two months. After initial imaging and complete blood investigations, he underwent partial penectomy. Histology revealed high-grade sarcoma, with osteoid production, favoring high-grade extra-skeletal osteosarcoma, with tumor necrosis involving approximately 5% of the tumor volume. The patient had bilateral palpable inguinal lymphadenopathy, which was seen even on a pre-op CT scan. The patient thus underwent bilateral robotic superficial and deep inguinal standard template lymph node dissection three weeks after his partial penectomy. His pathology was negative for malignancy in all examined lymph nodes. At his last follow-up, five months post his primary surgery, he had been doing well without concerns for recurrence.

Chronic pelvic pain and dysmenorrhea disguising a rare submucosal leiomyoma of the urinary bladder.

Representing 0.43% of all urinary bladder neoplasms, leiomyomas are rare mesenchymal tumours with a benign pathophysiology. There have only been approximately 250 cases published on this subject, necessitating further inquiry into this disease and effective management protocols. Treatment options may include a broad spectrum of surgical interventions, from minimally invasive resection to radical cystectomy, depending on the location, size and symptoms associated with the tumour. To date, few cases of leiomyoma have resulted in recurrence after removal, and zero have reported malignant transformation. Described here in detail is a woman in her early 40s who presented with a history of chronic pelvic pain and irregular vaginal bleeding. The urology team completed further evaluation after imaging discovered a concerning bladder lesion. Eventually, she underwent transurethral resection, with the subsequent pathology revealing a rare diagnosis of leiomyoma in the urinary bladder.

Ovarian Serous Cystadenoma of the Epididymis: A Case Report.

Paratesticular cystadenomas remain a very rare entity, typically presenting as a painless mass, often indistinguishable from the testicle. As such, the predominant management seems to be complete excision via various approaches, which often proves curative. Given its rarity, post-operative surveillance has not been standardized; most patients and providers elect a more conservative surveillance approach. Based on the available literature, this seems appropriate, given the lack of morbidity or recurrence associated with these types of tumors.

Synchronous Metastatic Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma to the Gallbladder With Metachronous Contralateral Recurrence.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) classically metastasizes to the lungs, bones, adrenals, lymph nodes, liver, and brain. RCC metastasis to the gallbladder is rare occurring in less than 1% of metastases. We present a case of a 60-year-old male who at initial diagnosis of his large left renal mass was incidentally found to have a gallbladder mass. He underwent simultaneous open radical nephrectomy and cholecystectomy with pathology confirming solitary metastatic clear cell RCC (ccRCC). The patient chose surveillance and was without evidence of disease for three years. At three years, imaging showed a 2 cm contralateral renal mass which was cryoablated percutaneously. This case demonstrates not only the importance of a thorough review of initial and surveillance imaging but also of maintaining a broad differential for other solid organ masses in the setting of a primary RCC of the kidney.
