    Abstract Solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (SEP) of the nasal cavity is a rare neoplastic condition characterized by the localized proliferation of abnormal plasma cells. We present a case of SEP involving the nasal cavity in a 40-year-old male patient who presented with nasal obstruction and recurrent epistaxis. The diagnosis was confirmed through clinical evaluation, imaging studies, and histopathological examination of excised specimen. The patient underwent trans-nasal endoscopic excision of nasal mass without any adjuvant therapy, which resulted in successful local control. This case report highlights the clinical presentation, diagnostic approach, treatment modalities, and favourable prognosis associated with solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma of the nasal cavity.

    Abstract Introduction and importance: Phaeohyphomycosis is a rare fungal infection primarily affecting immunocompromised individuals. Its clinical manifestations are diverse, and diagnosis can be challenging, particularly when lesions mimic other conditions.
    Case presentation: A 66-year-old male, with a history of irregular leprosy treatment and prolonged steroid use, presented with symptoms suggestive of a nerve abscess. On examination, cystic swellings were observed on the left thumb and leg. Histopathological examination and fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) revealed melanized hyphae, leading to a final diagnosis of phaeohyphomycosis. The patient was treated with oral itraconazole, leading to regression in lesion size.
    Clinical discussion: Leprosy patients on long-term steroids are especially susceptible. The pathogenicity of these fungi in immunocompetent people is believed to be due to melanin in their cell walls, which defends against host defenses. Diagnosis involves histopathological examinations, staining, and fungal culture. Treatment involves surgical excision and antifungal drugs. If untreated, it can lead to severe complications including fatal brain infections.
    Conclusion: This case highlights the unusual presentation of phaeohyphomycosis mimicking a nerve abscess in a leprosy patient. It underscores the importance of a high degree of clinical suspicion in diagnosing such rare infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. It also emphasizes the value of FNAC in reaching a definitive diagnosis. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential to prevent potentially serious outcomes.

    Abstract Hypoplastic coronary artery disease (HCAD) is a rare coronary artery anomaly that may be the cause of sudden death. It can involve a single or all coronary arteries. This anomaly may cause circulatory insufficiency leading to myocardial infarction. HCAD has no symptoms or may exhibit cardiovascular signs like syncope, dyspnea, chest discomfort, or dizziness. It is often diagnosed at autopsy, and early diagnosis is made with a coronary angiogram. We report HCAD as the cause of the sudden death of a 25-year-old female with a history of loss of consciousness following exertion. On autopsy, all the coronary arteries' lumen was narrowed with thin vessel walls. Histopathological examination shows an underdeveloped and missing muscular layer of the left anterior descending and circumflex coronary arteries' vascular wall. Many cases of HCAD diagnosed by radiographic imaging in living patients have been reported in the literature, but a structural anomaly of coronaries leading to HCAD has not been reported. We report a case of HCAD describing the histopathological examination findings of the vascular wall of coronary vessels illustrating the structural difference.

    Abstract Chronic lymphoedema can rarely be complicated by an angiosarcoma. This combination called Stewart-Treves syndrome usually observed in upper limb in patients of post-mastectomy with axillary lymph node resection. Here, we report a male patient who had a 10-year history of right leg elephantiasis. Later on, he developed two large ulceronodular masses in the same leg with few satellite nodules in the surrounding skin. With the clinical suspicion of malignancy, a wedge biopsy was performed which revealed histological features of angiosarcoma with sickled red cells. The above knee amputation specimen received further confirmed the histological diagnosis. The investigation for haemoglobinopathy also suggested the presence of sickle cell trait. This report describes a multifocal tumour as a rare manifestation of Stewart-Treves syndrome in a post-filariasis case with sickle cell trait, which is an extremely uncommon combination.

    Abstract Tolosa Hunt syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by idiopathic chronic granulomatous lesion involving cavernous sinus. The presenting symptoms are severe frontal headache, periorbital pain, ptosis, and diplopia. Usually, patients with headache and ptosis primarily visit neurologists or ophthalmologists. Only when imaging reveals any intracranial lesion involving paranasal sinuses, these patients get referred to otorhinolaryngologists. We would like to describe here the challenges we faced as otorhinolaryngologist, in diagnosis and management of a case of painful ophthalmoplegia as Tolosa Hunt Syndrome. A 55-year-old male presented to us with complaints of left frontal headache, periorbital pain, diplopia, and ptosis of left eye. Imaging and endoscopic biopsy revealed granulomatous lesion involving cavernous sinus with no evidence of fungal aetiology. Patient responded well to systemic steroid therapy with complete resolution of symptoms and no remission till two years of follow up. Tolosa Hunt Syndrome remains a diagnosis of exclusion. Trans-nasal endoscopic biopsy in selected cases may be contributory to the diagnosis. It responds well to systemic steroid therapy. Although chances of relapse are there yet prognosis is excellent.
