Caglia et al.from Italy, present a case of 28-year-old female with cutaneous Rosai-Dorfmann disease occurring in a patient with a past medical history of autism spectrum disorders. The purely cutaneous form of the disease is extremely rare, accounting for approximately 3% of cases.

In the volume 3 issue 11, Meena from India, reports on a rare case of lipoma of pancreas from a 60 year-old woman who presented in emergency department with abdominal pain. Anabdominal Computer Tomography imaging after an abdominal ultrasonography examination revealed the characteristics of the lesion. Authors assert that lipoma of pancreas which represents less than 1% of all pancreatic tumours must be distinguished radiologically from replacement or infiltration fatty disorder, replacement focal fat, lipomatosis or adipose dysplasia, pseudohypertrophyclipomatosis, pancreatic teratoma,andliposarcoma.

Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAS) is characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness and nighttime breathing cessation or reduction of airflow. CSAS is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of OSAS in communityscreened patients is 2-14%.

Woman with uterine malformations have higher rates of reproductive loss, pre-term delivery, infertility, intrauterine growth retardation, breech presentation and complications that increase obstetric intervention and perinatalmortality. The best way of diagnosing these anomalies is by using imaging techniques. We present a case where infull term pregnant woman was diagnosed to have congenital uterine didelphus following delivery of female baby with vertex presentation by LSCS (lower segment caesarean section) and an other case of uterine anomaly in a youngwoman with recurrent pelvic pain. Both the cases were diagnosed incidentally on gross examination of specimen following hysterectomy and which was not diagnosed initially by ultrasound scan.

The pancreatic endocrine tumors are heterogeneous group of pancreatic neoplastic growths that can be biologically active in nearly one third of cases; these tumors represent 1-2% of pancreatic neoplasia.

In international literature, several cases of multicentric osteoid osteoma have been described. Clinical presentations with a double nidus in the same bone, in adjacent bones or in symmetric bones have been reported.In the present study the authors report a case of an osteoid osteoma of the right distal femur in a forty-five years old man with a history of osteoid osteoma of the left distal femur treated thirty-four years earlier. To our knowledge, only two similar cases were known so far.

Primary malignant vaginal melanoma is a rare tumor. It accounts for less than 5% of all primary malignant
tumors of the vagina. It mainly occurs in postmenopausal women. Its diagnosis is delayed due to frequent and early recurrence. So it is important to think carefully before indicating an often heavy first surgery.
We describe a case of vaginal melanoma in a 70- year -old woman. Our aim is to present the clinical diagnosis and the therapeutic aspects of this rare entity.

Hemophilic pseudo tumors are rare, but well known complication of severe hemophilia, which most frequently develop at the femur, tibia, pelvic bones.
