Background : Papillary carcinoma of breast is rare and account for approximately 1-2% of newly diagnosed cases of breast cancers. The common age group of presentation is 6-7th decade. These tumours usually present with a painless retroareolar swelling associated with bloody nipple discharge in 50% cases. Case 1) 57 year old most Cases : menopausal woman presented with huge ulcerative lump in right breast over a period of 1 year. After confirming diagnosis with incisional biopsy, patient was proceeded with Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NACT) followed by Right MRM with SSG. Case 2) 66 year old male patient came with complaints of bloody discharge from nipple for past 1 year. A small subcentimetric lump present in retroareolar region on left breast was present, on which USG guided CNB revealed Invasive Ductal Carcinoma. Patient was proceeded with Left MRM. Case 3) 65 year old male patient presented with painless lump in left breast for 3 months. Clinical examination revealed a 1*2 cm lump in left breast with a single mobile ipsilateral axillary node. Image guided CNB revealed Invasive Papillary carcinoma. Patient was taken up for upfront Left MRM. All 3 patients are on regular follow-up for more than a year, and no recurrence is noted on followup
Background - Intramuscular hemangiomas are benign vascular tumours that most frequently occur in the trunk and extremities.They constitute about <1% of all hemangiomas, only 10%–20% have been found to arise in the head and neck region, and 36% of cases involving masseter muscle.They usually present as gradually enlarging soft-tissue mass with or without pain. They are located deep within the muscle, hence rarely exhibit clinical signs or symptoms such as bruits, thrills, pulsation which are suggestive of vascular origin. Due to their rare occurrence, unique location they are often confused with other soft-tissue pathologies such as parotid swelling or other muscular lesions. Case report - 21 year old male came with complaints of swelling and pain over the left cheek for past 6 months which was insidious in onset and non progressive.Patient did not have any history of trauma or increased salivation.On examination swelling of about 2*2 cm over the left cheek,well defined,non tender,soft in consistency.There was no pulsation,bruits or palpable thrill.There was no compressibility and the overlying skin was normal.There was no facial nerve involvement and parotid duct orifice was normal. Conclusion - The possibility of an Intramuscular hemangioma of the masseter muscle should be included in the differential diagnosis of any intra-masseteric lesion. Appropriate radiologic examinations, especially MRI, can enhance accurate preoperative diagnosis; the treatment of choice should be individualized in view of the clinical status of the patient.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
