Third ventricular cavernous angioma.

Third ventricular cavernous angiomas are rare vascular malformations of the brain. We report an eight-year old boy with a rare third ventricular cavernous angioma that hemorrhaged presenting with symptoms of acute hydrocephalus. Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed a heterogenous ill-defined, solid and cystic intraventricular mass in the third ventricle which was mildly enhanced with contrast and there was associated hydrocephalus. The mass was removed with success and follow up after two years revealed no neurological abnormalities.

Epignathus (congenital teratoma of the hard palate): a case report.

A rare case is described of congenital teratoma protruding from the mouth (epignathus) attached to the hard palate in an infant of 3 days. Typical teratoma components and brain tissue were noted. A description of the relevant clinical and pathological features is given and the embryological basis for the aetiology of the lesion is discussed. The literature is reviewed.

Synovial sarcoma of abdominal wall: a case report and study of tumor fine structure.

A case of synovial sarcoma in the abdominal wall of a 50-year-old Iraqi woman is reported. The ultrastructure of the tumor has been studied. Eight other cases of synovial sarcoma in the abdominal wall reported in the English literature up to 1978 have been reviewed. Synovial sarcomas in the abdominal wall tend to occur with a much greater frequency in women, whereas such tumors occurring in the extremities or the neck are more common in men than woman. No ultrastructural studies of abdominal wall synovial sarcomas could be found in the English literature. The ultrastructural characters of this tumor are similar to those of such tumors arising in the usual sites and the neck. However, the present study has indicated that the light and dark cells reported by earlier workers are not limited solely to the epitheloid areas but are also present in the spindle cell zones.

Synovial sarcoma of the abdominal wall: a case report and study of its fine structure.

A case of synovial sarcoma in the abdominal wall of a 50-year-old Iraq female is reported. The ultrastructure of the tumor has been studied. Eight other cases of synovial sarcoma in the abdominal wall which reported in the English literature up to 1978 have been reviewed. Synovial sarcomas in the abdominal wall tend to occur with a much greater frequency in females in contrast to such tumors in the extremities or the neck which tend to occur with a much greater frequency in males. No ultrastructure studies of abdominal wall synovial sarcomas could be found in the English literature. Ultrastructure characteristics of this tumor were similar to those arising in the usual sites and in the neck. However, the present study has indicated that the light and dark cells reported by earlier workers are not solely limited to the epitheloid areas but are also present in the spindle cell zones.
