A newborn infant with multiple congenital oral swellings can be a striking sight for both parents and healthcare professionals involved in neonatal care. Neumann first described congenital epulis of a newborn in 1871, hence it is also known as Neumann's tumor. Congenital epulis occurs at birth and has a predilection for females. Congenital epulis clinically appears as a pedunculated protuberant mass. In cases with large lesions, mechanical, oral, and nasal obstruction can impair fetal deglutition or interfering with feeding and / or respiratory impairment. We are reporting a case of a six-day-old, 3.5 kg newborn female, who had reported to our institution with multiple congenital oral swellings arising from the maxilla and mandible.
Lipomas of vulva have been reported only rarely. Benign tumors of the vulva are normally classified according to their origin as epithelial cell tumors (e.g., keratinocytic, adnexal and ectopic tumors), or mesenchymal cell tumors (e.g., vascular, fibrous, muscular, neural, adipose and melanocytic tumors). Vulvar lipomas need to be differentiated from liposarcomas, which are rare but are very similar to lipomas clinically. Here we present a rare case of large vulvar lipoma in an adolescent girl.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma is relatively uncommon tumour of salivary glands and are characterised by a prolonged clinical course and a fatal outcome. It was first described as 'cylindroma' by Billroth in 1859. Half of these tumors: occur in glandular areas other than the major salivary glands, principally in the hard palate, but they also arise in the tongue and minor salivary glands. Unusual locations include the external auditory canal, nasopharynx, lacrimal glands, breast, vulva, esophagus, cervix and cowper glands. The long natural history of this tumor and its tendency for local recurrence are well known. Case ReportA 43 year old female, known diabetic and hypothyroid was admitted with the complaint of swelling in the left eye which had lead to the protrusion of the eye ball over a period of one year. The patient gave no complaints of diminished vision, diplopia, headache, nasal discharge or nasal obstruction. Clinically visual acuity, visual fields, fundi, and extraocular Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a relatively uncommon tumour of salivary, glands and is characterised by a prolonged clinical course and a fatal outcome.

Background: Benign breast diseases are group of non cancerous condition which includes a variety of disease. The pt. commonly present with lump. Pain and nipple discharge.Material and method: It was prospective observational study. Carried out at opd of general surgery department at hallet hospital GSVM medical college Kanpur from October 2017 to November 2019. A total of 200 pt were studied and all pt underwent detailed history recording and clinical examination. Subsequently based on assessment they underwent USG or mammography of breast. After that they underwent FNAC or excisional biopsy with HPE. Result: Out of 200 pt most common presentation was breast lump (82.5%) followed by breast pain (15%) and nipple discharge (7.5%). The most common age of presentation was 21-30 years with Right side of breast more commonly involved than left side. The most common clinical diagnosis was fibroadenoma (45%) followed by fibroadenosis (31%) mastalgia (15%) all lipoma (2.5%). Conclusion:Benign breast disease present mainly is 21-30 year of age group and fibroadenoma is commonest of them all. It can be diagnosed clinically and confirmed by FNAC is more than 90% of cases excision is main stay of treatment.

Vulvar lipomas need to be differentiated from liposarcomas, which are rare but are very similar to lipomas clinically. Here we present clinical images (Figures 1 & 2) of a rare case of large vulvar lipoma in an adolescent girl that was published in an earlier issue of JMS. JMS 2012;15(1):82 [Images shown here, actually belong to a case report by Mauryia, et al, published in an earlier issue of JMS (http://www.jmsskims.org/Contents/71-8.%20MAURYA.pdf) where the images got missed; the slip-up is regretted by the editors.]
At present, duration and methods of radiographic follow-up after pediatric pyeloplasty are not well defined. We prospectively studied pediatric age group patients to assess outcome for cases of pyeloplasty on the basis of ultrasonography and DTPA scan. : We assessed all cases of PUJ obstruction in age group 0-18 years, who got admitted in LLR hospital, Kanpur and underwent pyeloplasty. Patients were excluded if cause of pyeloplasty was acquired. Preoperatively patients underwent clinical evaluation with history and examination followed by radiological investigations including Renal USG & DTPA scan. All patients were followed up postoperatively at 3, 6, 9 & 12 months. In USG, renal parenchyma thickness, antero-posterior diameter of renal pelvis was assessed. In DTPA scan, differential renal function was assessed. Data of USG and DTPA scan were statistically compared. 32 patients who underwent pyeloplasty at a median age of 4.2 years were studied. Follow-up was done for 1 year. On the basis of our study, DTPA scan is better than renal USG to assess functional outcome after pyeloplasty in pediatric age group up to 6 months during follow-up. But results are comparable for follow-up during 9 & 12 months postoperatively. The results of our study show that in the first 6 months, renal USG is not as much informative as DTPA scan to assess functional outcome after pyeloplasty but after 6 months, renal USG is equally effective as DTPA scan.Our study concludes that for poor resource countries, renal USG can be used to assess functional outcome after pyeloplasty in pediatric age group for post-operative follow-up, instead of costly & scarcely available investigation like Renal DTPA scan.
Background: Hypospadias is a common congenital anomaly in which the anterior urethra is incompletely developed and does not extend to the tip of the glans penis. The present study was aimed to study the clinical prole of hypospadias. Settings and Design:This was a prospective, observational study. Methods: This prospective study was conducted at Department of General Surgery, LLR & Associated Hospitals, GSVM Medical College, Kanpur, India, from January 2019 to October 2020, on 72 patients of hypospadias, after taking clearance from the Institutional Ethical Committee, and taking proper informed consent for participation. Data collected for each patient included age, sex, demography, symptoms with duration, and relevant past and treatment history. Results: The most common age of presentation was between 1-5years of age (48.61%, n=35). Distal hypospadias (DH) was the most common site. (47.22%, n=34). 4.16% (n=3) patients presented with urethrocutaneous stula. Chordee was more commonly seen in patients with mid & proximal penile hypospadias (64.70%, n=33). In the present study, 4.1% (n=3) had associated undescended testis, 4.1% (n=3) had an associated bid scrotum and 1.3% (n=1) had an associated congenital hernia. Conclusions: Most cases of hypospadias present before 10 years of age. Distal hypospadias is the most common type. Chordee is associated most commonly with proximal penile and mid penile hypospadias. It may also be associated with other congenital anomalies like, undescended testis, bid scrotum or congenital hernias
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.
