A rare case of angiosarcoma of the maxillary sinus is reported. Review of the literature concerning angiosarcoma of the head and neck revealed 14 previously published cases involving the nose, nasal sinuses, and nasopharynx. Angiosarcoma of the skin and soft tissues of the head and neck differs in behavior from that affecting the nose, nasal sinuses, and nasopharynx. The case reported presents the protracted clinical course of this malignant tumor. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Plasma cell granulomas are rare and heterogeneous tumor-like lesions of mixed inflammatory cell infiltrates of unknown etiology. Although they have the potential to occur in sites throughout the body, their occurrence in the paranasal sinuses and nasal cavity is uncommon and often associated with unique clinical characteristics and natural history. METHODS: We present a case of an aggressive plasma cell granuloma of the maxillary sinus and a review of the literature (28 cases). RESULTS: The patient was treated with definitive radiotherapy (45 Gy in 25 fractions) and experienced a local recurrence 2 years later. The lesion initially responded to corticosteroids and then progressed. Resection was performed and was followed by another recurrence. The patient was treated with radiosurgery and is disease free 8 years after initial treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Review of the literature indicates that the optimal first line of treatment is high-dose corticosteroids. Surgery is indicated if the lesion fails to respond. Radiotherapy is indicated if complete resection is not feasible. 相似文献

Methods. A case of a primary ectopic meningioma, arising within the right maxillary sinus, is presented. A review of English literature was also undertaken to determine the prevalence of these lesions in this specific anatomic location. Results. A total maxillectomy was performed without complications and the surgical defect was covered with an immediate obturator. The patient is well and without evidence of disease 3½ years postoperatively. A review of the English literature revealed four additional reports of primary ectopic meningiomas that were limited to the maxillary sinus. Conclusions. Primary ectopic meningiomas of the maxillary sinus are uncommon lesions which have a good prognosis when a complete resection of the neoplasm can be performed. © 1995 Jons Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Although inflammatory myofibroblastic tumours (IMTs) have been accepted as a clonal neoplasm, their pathology is poorly understood due to variable presentation. There is no identifiable cause and they are usually observed as tumour growth combined with inflammation. In the current WHO classification, IMTs are designated as intermediate malignancies. In terms of biological potential, IMTs are classified under ‘rarely metastasizing’. IMTs are rare in the maxillary sinus but, when reported, can be locally aggressive or even destructive if they invade the orbit. The authors present a brief clinical report describing a five-year-old girl with a slow-growing mass in the right maxillary sinus extending into the lacrimal sac and its management. 相似文献

IntroductionMaxillary sinus adenoid cystic carcinoma (MSACC) is a rare malignancy with a propensity for distant metastasisCase presentationWe report a case of a 55 years-old male who was admitted to our department with a complaint of right nasal obstruction and anosmia. Clinical examination, radiological investigations and histopathological examination found a mass compatible with advanced adenoid cystic carcinoma of the right maxillary sinus. Treatment consisted of radio chemotherapy.ConclusionAdenoid cystic carcinoma of the maxillary sinus may represent a serious diagnostic challenge. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis of Sino nasal tumors even if it’s rare. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION
Duodenum is the second most frequent location for a diverticulum in the digestive tract. Complications are rare and perforation was only reported in less than 200 cases.PRESENTATION OF CASE
A 79-year-old female was admitted to Emergency Department with abdominal pain and vomiting for the last 24 h. A CT scan was performed and moderated extra-luminal air was identified. During surgery a fourth portion perforated duodenal diverticulum was diagnosed and duodenal resection was performed.DISCUSSION
First reported in 1710, the incidence of duodenal diverticula can be as high as 22%. Nevertheless complications are extremely rare and include haemorrhage, inflammation, compression of surrounding organs, neoplastic progression, cholestasis and perforation.As perforations are often retroperitoneal, symptoms are nonspecific and rarely include peritoneal irritation, making clinical diagnose a challenge.CT scan will usually present extra-luminal retroperitoneal air and mesenteric fat stranding, providing clues for the diagnosis.Although non-operative treatment has been reported in selected patients, standard treatment is surgery and alternatives are diverse including diverticulectomy or duodenopancreatectomy.CONCLUSION
Perforated diverticula of the fourth portion of the duodenum are extremely rare and current evidence still supports surgery as the primary treatment modality. 相似文献11.

INTRODUCTION: Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is an invasive soft tissue tumor with asymmetric pattern of growth and propensity for recurrences, thus warranting systematic treatment planning at onset. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 25 patients with DFSP that received either wide excision, modified wide excision (with horizontal processing), Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS), or combination surgery. Follow-up ranged from 15-133 months, with a median of 68 months. RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS: Fourteen patients were treated with wide excision, 4 with modified wide excision, 6 with MMS followed by modified wide excision, and 1 with MMS. No recurrences were reported. Patients with lesions arising from "cosmetically sensitive" areas (head and neck) most often underwent MMS or modified wide excision. Our study supports that all 4 surgical treatment methods were successful in achieving recurrence-free survival, but emphasis on presurgical planning and patient selection for each surgical approach is key to allow for the least complicated repair while maximizing tissue preservation. 相似文献

The chronic and relapsing nature of hidradenitis suppurativa leads to physical and psychological damage. The absence of a proven cure further worsens the scenario. Patient 1 was a 28-year-old woman with a 10-year history of abscesses and non healing sinuses with foul-smelling discharge from her axilla, submammary and groin areas. This led to an episode of self-harm due to severe depression. After failed medical therapy, she was referred for surgery with wide excision of the skin and healing by secondary intention. Her wounds were managed by our specialist wound clinic with the use of topical and systemic antibiotics and thus remained free from symptoms. Patient 2 was a 32-year-old woman with a similar history for 15 years. Patient 3 was a 41-year-old man with a 20-year history of discharging sinuses and abscesses. All the patients had endured a long period of medical treatment and subsequently required surgery for a long-term relief of symptoms. This has undoubtedly led to psychological symptoms and a decrease in quality of life. 相似文献
