    Abstract Epithelial-Myoepithelial Carcinoma (EMC) is a rare low grade epithelial malignancy of major Salivary Glands (SG). Though the histomorphology of this tumor is distinct, unusual location and clinical presentation may pose diagnostic difficulties especially when this lesion is first encountered at cytology. We report a case of 60-year-old female presenting with nasal obstruction of three months duration. At FNAC the diagnosis of EMC was suggested and it was confirmed on histopathology. We present this case highlighting the cytomorphologic attributes of this rare tumor occurring at an extremely uncommon location - Nasal cavity.

    Abstract Epidermal inclusion cyst arising from the breast is a very interesting, rare, benign and diagnostically challenging condition since it may easily be mistaken clinically for malignancy, thereby creating undue anxiety and apprehension until the definitive diagnosis is formulated. Epidermal inclusion cyst results due to proliferation and implantation of epidermal elements which get compartmentalized as cysts within the dermis. The common sites of occurrence include face, trunk, extremities and scalp. But, epidermal inclusion cysts of the breast are rare. They deserve attention and importance since they may be misdiagnosed as malignant breast neoplasms both on clinical and radiological examination. Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) and histopathological examination play a pivotal role in their diagnosis and management. We report a case of a huge epidermal inclusion cyst of the breast occurring in a 55 year old female which was clinically and radiologically diagnosed as breast abscess and referred for evaluation to rule out malignancy. A definitive opinion of epidermal inclusion cyst was offered on FNA since the aspirate had the classic gross and microscopic features. Considering the huge size of the breast mass, a complete cyst excision was performed and the cytodiagnosis was confirmed by histopathological examination.

    Abstract Placental site trophoblastic tumour (PSTT) is a rare form of trophoblastic disease accounting for < 2% of all gestational trophoblastic neoplasms. Most of the cases follow a normal pregnancy and a small number have a preceeding molar pregnancy or spontaneous abortion. It can occur as early as several weeks or as late as 15 years after normal delivery, molar pregnancy or abortion. Excessive intermediate trophoblastic activity is the most important diagnostic criterion of this tumour originating from non villous trophoblast. But the possibility of a PSTT should be considered when there is excessive intermediate trophoblastic activity despite the presence of chorionic villi as in the present case. This case report highlights the unusual features like rarity of the tumour (< 2%), occurrence following spontaneous abortion which happens only in a minority of cases, and presence of chorionic villi in the tumour despite the fact that the tumour is of non villous trophoblastic origin.
