Sarcomatoid carcinoma of colon is an extremely rare biphasic tumour with less than 50 reported cases in literature, either as Sarcomatoid carcinoma or carcinosarcoma. Here, we report a case of a 65 years old lady who presented with pain abdomen. On colonoscopy, a colonic mass was noted with intussusception. Right hemicolectomy was performed and the specimen was sent for histopathological examination. Following histopathology and immunohistochemistry, it was reported as Sarcomatoid carcinoma of Colon.

Catscratch disease[CSD] is a self limited lymphadenitis caused by Bartonella Henselae and transmitted by cats. This typically affects children and young adults. Immunosuppression is considered as a risk factor for severe and atypical forms of the disease. We are reporting such a case of Catscratch disease in a patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus while receiving immunosupressant therapy.

Breast carcinoma is one of the most common malignancies affecting women in developing countries. It is divided into several subtypes, including triple negatives. TNBCs are found to have an aggressive behaviour and have a metastasic potential leading to an overall poorer prognosis.The aim was to study the clinicopathological profile of TNBC pateints including parameters like age, site, tumour size, histopathological type, histologic grade, lymphovascular invasion and nodal invasion and TNM Staging was done to study the overall prognosis.A four year retrospective study was conducted on ninety seven cases of breast carcinoma which were further classified based on immunohistochemical staining into four subtypes. The clinicopathological details and the histomorphological features of these patents were studied.Of the 208 cases, 97 cases were diagnosed as TNBC. The average age at presentation was 45 years. Most of the cases showed Nottingham Modification of Scarff Bloom-Richardson (NMBR) grade 3 (66%) and stage II (50.7%). Lymph node metastasis and Lymphovascular invasion was seen in 62% and 24.7% of cases. Infiltrating ductal carcinoma (not otherwise specified) type (94.8%) was the most common histological type. TNBC have an aggressive behaviour compared to other subtypes with higher SBR grade. Lymphovascular invasion and nodal metastasis.
乳腺癌是影响发展中国家妇女的最常见的恶性肿瘤之一。它分为几个亚型，包括三重阴性。发现tnbc具有侵袭性行为和转移潜力，导致整体预后较差。目的是研究TNBC患者的临床病理特征，包括年龄、部位、肿瘤大小、组织病理类型、组织学分级、淋巴血管侵袭及淋巴结侵袭等参数，并进行TNM分期，研究整体预后。对97例乳腺癌进行了为期4年的回顾性研究，并根据免疫组化染色将其分为4个亚型。我们对这些病例的临床病理细节和组织形态学特征进行了研究。在208例中，97例被诊断为TNBC。发病时的平均年龄为45岁。大多数病例表现为Nottingham Modification of Scarff Bloom-Richardson (NMBR) 3级(66%)和II期(50.7%)。淋巴结转移和淋巴血管侵犯分别占62%和24.7%。浸润性导管癌(未另行说明)类型(94.8%)是最常见的组织学类型。与其他SBR分级较高的亚型相比，TNBC具有攻击行为。淋巴血管侵袭及淋巴结转移。

Subcutaneous Basidiobolomycosis is a rare fungal infection caused by environmental saprophyte Basidiobolus ranarum. The disease is seen among immunocompetent individuals of age 18 months to 80 years, being more common in children. We report a case of Subcutaneous Basidiobolomycosis in a 10-year-old immunocompetent male child from Ahmednagar, Maharashtra who presented with complaints of right gluteal non tender, diffuse swelling, which was gradually progressive involving inner and back of thigh. The overlying skin was hyperpigmented with scaling at places. It was associated with complaints of difficulty in walking and voiding of urine. Patient was prescribed multiple medicines with no records available. All primary investigations were done along with a deep incisional biopsy for histopathology. MRI was suggestive of? lymphangioma? vascular malformation. Histopathology revealed panniculitis with dense collections of eosinophils. Few broad, aseptate fungal hyphae were seen camouflaged within the inflammatory infiltrate, surrounded by Splendore-Hoeppli phenomenon. The patient was treated with oral fluconazole for a period of one year with complete resolution of the symptoms. After one year of follow-up, the patient is clinically well. Clinically, this lesion presented as induration of skin and subcutaneous tissue thus mimicking a soft tissue sarcoma. However, histopathological examination clinched the diagnosis. Fungal infections are common in immuno-suppressed patients, and extremely uncommon in children. Since this is an exceptional rare fungal infection seen in immuno-competent children and young adults, it is often disregarded as a differential diagnosis.

Odontogenic tumors are a heterogeneous group of lesions with variable clinical and pathohistological features. The purpose of this study was to investigate the epidemiological behavior of this heterogeneous group of tumors across a 2 year period and to compare these data with those in the literature. A retrospective study was made of cases of odontogenic tumors recorded at our institution between January 2021 to December 2022. The variables gender, age, anatomical site, histological type and symptoms were analyzed in 30 histopathology reports. Out of 30 cases, males show predominant cases 60% (18/30 cases) and females show 40% cases (12/30 cases). Male: female ratio is 1.5:1. According to age, the most involved age group was found to be of 11-20 years which showed highest number of cases (36.7%). Out of 30 cases, most frequent odontogenic tumor was found to be ameloblastoma (46.7%). There is a slight predominance of odontogenic tumors in men and during the first decades of life; most of them occur in the mandible. There were statistically significant differences among the variables histological type and symptoms.

Angiomatous meningioma is a rare subtype of meningioma that accounts for 2.1-2.59% of all meningiomas. Microscopically, it shows numerous vascular spaces in addition to the normal meningothelial elements. Here, we are presenting a case of 41 years old female who presented with history of bilateral loss of vision, headache, loss of consciousness, seizures, giddiness and vomiting and was diagnosed as angiomatous meningioma on histopathological examination. Despite the availability of neuroimaging diagnostic modalities, histological examination and immunohistochemistry remain the gold standard for final diagnosis.

Pineal gland tumors are of rare occurrence and may arise from pineal parenchymal cells, the neighboring glia or residual stem cells. Due to its rarity pineal gland tumors are often misdiagnosed. The World Health Organsation (WHO) classifies and grades pineal parenchymal tumors from grade I to grade IV. We present a case report of a rare pineal parenchymal tumor (PPT) in an adult female which was diagnosed mainly on histopathology and aided by immunohistochemistry. The case report includes review of histopathological features and grading of pineal region tumors of intermediate malignancy which is necessary for further management of such cases.

Carcinoma of cervix is one of the leading cause of mortality in women across the world. Papanicolaou smear is a valuable screening tool for the neoplastic lesions of cervix. Present study was carried out to do clinicocytological correlation of cervical lesions and to find out the spectrum of cervical lesions in study population. An observational study was conducted at Pathology department in Muzaffarnagar Medical College, Muzaffarnagar. Total 1,017 females were enrolled, scrape smears from the cervix were taken and processed using Papanicolaou's method of staining. These stained smears were examined under microscope and classified according to latest The Bethesda System 2014. Out of 1017 cases, 84.9% (863) smears were classified satisfactory according to 2014 The Bethesda System. Majority of cases (350 cases, 40.5%) belonged to age group of 31-40 years. NILM was the most common cytological finding seen in 340 females (39.3%). The epithelial abnormalities including Atypical Squamous Cells (ASCUS, ASC-H), Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (LSIL, HSIL) and Squamous Cell Carcinoma were seen in 3.2% of total cases. LSIL found in 1.3% cases and HSIL formed 1.0%. Single case of SCC was detected. Cervical epithelial abnormalities are common in Indian females. Pap smear is the most convenient and OPD test to detect epithelial abnormalities in early phase. Awareness regarding the Pap screening should be encouraged to lessen the morbidity and mortality caused by Carcinoma Cervix.

Schwannomas are peripheral nerve sheath benign tumors which arise from the schwann cells. These neoplasms are most frequently seen in the 3 to 6 decade of life and affecting the limbs followed by head and neck region. Oropharyngeal vallecular involvement by schwannomas is extremely rarely reported in the previous literature. We report a case of a 25 year old male with lesion in the vallecula which was subsequently diagnosed as Schwannomas on histopathology.
