Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) involving base of the tongue is a rare presentation with an incidence of only 7% of total cases. Because of its rarity it is often diagnosed late as lymphoma and mismanaged widely. We present one such case of 70-year-old female with complaints of difficulty in swallowing being diagnosed as NHL lesion of diffuse large B-cell variety arising in base of the tongue.

Adenomyoma of stomach is a rare condition that may or may not present with symptoms, often depending on the location of the tumor. Here, we present a case of gastric adenomyoma with pancreatic heterotopia in the pyloric region causing outlet obstruction. Clinically, radiologically, and histologically adenomyoma of the stomach may mimic gastric malignancy. Awareness of this lesion is necessary to avoid misdiagnosis of the condition.

We are reporting a case of giant chylolymphatic cyst of mesentery that presented with obstruction in a neonate. On exploratory laparotomy surgical excision of the cyst along with ileum was carried out. The cyst was diagnosed as chylolymphatic cyst on histopathological examination. Due to rarity, we are prompted to report this case.

Acute cholangitis and pancreatitis are the most common complications of the obstructed common bile duct(CBD). We are reporting a rare entity case diagnosed as giant CBD stone of size 5 cm × 3 cm × 4 cm with normal liver function test. As far as giant CBD stones are concerned, surgery is the treatment of choice whereas endoscopic procedure requires careful observation and further treatment innovations may be required.

Paragangliomas are relatively rare in an adults, with most arising from para-aortic sympathetic chain. Paraganglioma localized at the extravesical pelvic cavity is extremely rare, only few case reports are published. We report a case of paravesical paraganglioma in a 45-year-old man who initially presented with irritable bladder and palpitations after voiding for 6 years and was being treated symptomatically for urinary tract infection and anxiety. Cross-sectional imaging showed a paravesical mass and was treated by robotic excision of the mass.

Background and Methods: The present paper examines 3042 Indian publications in colorectal cancer, as covered in Scopus database during 2005–2014, experiencing an annual average growth rate of 4.06% and citation impact of 3.91. Results: The world colorectal cancer output (171,518 publications) came from several countries, of which the top 15 (United States, China., Japan, U.K., Germany, Italy, France, etc.) together accounts for 90.64% share of the global output during 2005–2014. India's global publication share was 1.77% during 2005–2014, which increased from 1.13% to 2.27% from 2005–2009 to 2010–2014. India's international collaborative share in colorectal cancer was 19.56% during 2005–2014, which increased from 15.05% to 20.14% from 2005–2009 to 2010–2014. Only 68.01% publications were cited 1 or more times since their publications till February 2015. Medicine accounted for the largest share (58.12%) of output in colorectal cancer, followed by biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology (34.62%), pharmacology, toxicology and pharmaceutics (29.26%), chemistry (9.60%), agricultural and biological sciences (4.80% share) and immunology and microbiology (3.68% share) during 2005–2014. Diagnosis, chemotherapy, surgery, and screening together account for 56.02% publications share among treatments methods used in Indian colorectal cancer research during 2005–2014 Maharashtra, Delhi, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka together contributed 57.82% share in Indian publications output in colorectal cancer during 2005–2014. Conclusion: The authors stressed the need for developing national policy for colorectal cancer which should take care of screening for detection and diagnosis, management and treatment options of the prostate cancer patients in India.

Campylobacter species induced enteritis is among the most common in the world. However, its association with gastric perforation is not well documented. We report here a case of a 27-year-old male who presented with a gastric perforation. Gastric biopsy sample revealed Gram-negative spiral bacilli and culture on modified Thayer-Martin agar yielded Campylobacter jejuni. The identification was confirmed by standard biochemical tests. This is probably the first documented case report from India of C. jejuni from the gastric biopsy.

An adolescent girl with raised alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels presented with a left-sided large solid ovarian mass. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of a variety of immature and mature tissues derived from the three germ layers having very sparse (single focus of) immature neuroepithelium. Few areas also showed the presence of a reticular pattern of yolk sac tumor (YST). Hence, the tumor was diagnosed as immature teratoma with microscopic foci of yolk sac elements. After 6 months of cisplatin-based chemotherapy, she developed a recurrence which was composed of mature teratoma on histology. In this case, the single focus of immature neuroepithelium caused a difficulty in labeling this tumor as an immature teratoma which otherwise resembled a mature teratoma. The raised AFP levels suggested the presence of yolk sac element, the classical form of which was seen at microscopy in only a few areas. As compared to the markedly elevated serum AFP levels, the classical yolk sac tumorous area was very limited thus advocating the view that differentiated glands with subnuclear vacuoles similar to immature endoderm represent well-differentiated forms of YST.[1]

A 20-year-old male incidentally diagnosed with left retroperitoneal mass on ultrasound. Computed tomography scan abdomen revealed heterogeneously enhancing left retroperitoneal mass with marginal blood vessels. Histopathological examination of postsurgical tumor specimen showed cells forming pseudoalveolar structures separated from each other by sinusoidal vascular channels suggestive of alveolar soft part sarcoma.

Carcinoma of the collecting ducts of Bellini are rare aggressive neoplasms of distal nephron origin; it accounts for 2% of all renal cell carcinomas. Clinically, collecting duct carcinoma (CDC) is characterized by an extremely aggressive phenotype, accompanying metastatic diseases at presentation in most reported cases. Most cases of CDC have been reported with median age above 50 years. To our knowledge, this is the only second case report of CDC in a young teenager patient below 19 years with metastasis to lungs and bones at presentation.
