Fibrous dysplasia is a congenital, no hereditary skeletal disorder where a portion of a bone develops abnormally. It accounts for approximately 7% of all benign bone tumors. It is a developmental anomaly of bone formation in which the marrow is replaced by fibrous tissue. The bones most frequently involved are the long bones: femur (most common), skull, and the ribs.

An Aggressive Case of Malignant Renal Pecoma Non-Responsive to Motor Inhibition: A Case Report

Klein Ilan Binyamin, Yoel Mecz, Avi Stein, Leonid Boyarsky, Yuval Freifeld and Dekel Yoram

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are made up of cells with distinctive morphologic, immunohistochemical, ultrastructural and genetic features. They may arise in various locations and are usually benign. Malignant PEComas are rare and associated with an aggressive clinical course and metastatic spread. We present a case of a 56 years old healthy patient who presented with right flank pain and a large mass located at the medial aspect of the right kidney. The mass ruptured during laparoscopic removal. The tumor was eventually labeled as an epitheloid malignant neoplasm most suggestive of malignant PEComa. The patient demonstrated during follow up both local and systemic metastasis that are unresponsive to this point to mTOR inhibition with various agents.

Long Term Outcome of Surgical Excision of Conjunctival Melanoma Combined with Mitomycin C Use: A Case Report

Nikoalos S Tsiklis, Odysseas Zoras, Koutsopoulos Anastasios and Charalambos S Siganos

Purpose: To report a case of conjunctival melanoma (CM) treated with excision and adjuvant mitomycin C. Methods: This is a case report of a 51-year-old female with conjunctival melanotic lesion (10.5 × 5 mm), that was treated with complete surgical excision, combined with perioperative and intraoperative use of mitomycin C 0.02%. Lymphoscintigraphy with 0.3 mCi of technetium Tc-99m sulfur colloid and sentinel lymph node biopsy were also performed. Results: Histological and immunohistochemical staining of the excised melanotic lesion [S-100 (+), Melan (+), Tyrosinase (+), HMB 45 (+)] confirmed the clinical diagnosis of Conjunctival Melanoma. Moreover, lymphoscintigraphy and sentinel lymph node biopsy were negative for tumor metastasis. Ten years postoperatively, there were neither signs of tumor recurrence or metastasis nor late postoperative complications due to mitomycin C. Conclusions: Complete surgical excision combined with perioperative and intraoperative MMC 0.02% was safe and effective in preventing local recurrence in a case of conjunctival melanoma.
