    Cervical Papillary Adenofibroma: A Rare Case Report
    (Adichunchunagiri Institute of Medical Sciences, 2024-05) Shrivastava, A; Soumya, BM; Chandrashekar, HR; Nandi, SS; Ahamed, PS.
    This study presents a rare instance of cervical papillary adenofibroma, a benign biphasic neoplasm originating from glandular and fibrous tissue, occurring in a 43-year-old female patient. Most common site is the endometrium. Papillary adenofibroma arising from the cervix is an infrequent entity. Uterine adenofibromas were first described by Ober in 1959 as a form of mixed mesodermal tumor. Cervical adenofibromas was first described by Abell in 1971. Both the stromal and epithelial components are benign. Grossly, adenofibroma present as a papillary, polypoidal or sessile lesion that may protrude into the endocervical canal with cut surface showing multiple cysts imparting it a spongy appearance. Microscopically, they have a nodular surface with a lobulated papillary configuration. The tumor may recur if incompletely excised. Adenosarcoma and adenomyoma are important differential diagnosis. The clinical presentation, diagnostic procedures, gross appearance, microscopic architecture, and management strategies are elucidated in this case report. Emphasizing the significance of accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment, this case report underscores the importance of recognizing and managing such infrequent cervical tumors. Through this case report, our aim is to contribute to the existing medical literature on cervical papillary adenofibromas, shedding light on its clinical characteristics, diagnostic nuances, and management modalities for the benefit of clinicians and researchers encountering similar cases.

    Report of an Unusual Case of Hemosiderotic Fibrohistiocytic Lipomatous Tumor with Systematic Review of Clinicopathological Characteristics and Differential Diagnosis
    (Adichunchunagiri Institute of Medical Sciences, 2023-01) Soumya, BM; Sharma, L; Kulkarni, V; Preethi, CR.
    The spectrum of lipomatous lesions ranges from benign to highly malignant disease. Differentiation between these mesenchymal lesions is important for pathologist as well as clinician to indicate prognosis and choose the most appropriate treatment. Hemosiderotic firohistiocytic lipomatous tumor (HFLT) is a rare subtype of lipomatous tumor. The diagnosis is usually based on clinical, histological, and immunohistochemical (IHC) information. We reported a case of 56 years old man with a painful mass in the dorsal aspect of the thigh showing an unusal clinical presentation but a characteristic histological and IHC features. In this article we have retrospectively reviewed the 67 cases of HFLT reported in literature so far along with one case reported at our institution. The review focuses on clinicopathological and histomorphological characteristics of HFLT and the related entities. The hallmark of HFLT and its related lesions is complex admixture of mature adipose tissue, spindle tumor cells with striking deposition of hemosiderin pigment. Even though HFLT shows marked predeliction for the distal extremeties especially the foot/ ankle with a female preponderance, they can occur at uncommon site such as thigh and also in males as seen in our case.
