Intraductal carcinoma of right parapharyngeal space presenting as a fluctuant swelling of retromolar region: Case emphasizing on the histological differential diagnosis
We report a case of low-grade IDC of the anterior compartment of the right parapharyngeal space that clinically resembled a lesion of vascular origin. Due to the extreme rarity of intraductal carcinoma, it may not be considered by dentists and dental specialists in clinical differential diagnoses, leading to delay in treatment. Intraductal carcinoma must be differentiated from its close histological but high-grade mimickers to avoid unnecessary overtreatment and better patient outcome.

Benign scalp lesion: An unusual presentation of B cell- lymphoblastic lymphoma & #8211; A case report
We report the case of a 13-year-old girl who presented with a painful, progressively enlarging swelling in right zygomatico-temporal region, clinically simulated a deep fungal infection/ granulomatous lesion and turned out to be a case of B-LBL without any systemic involvement on further work up. This case is being reported to emphasize that B-LBL should be considered as a differential for an otherwise benign appearing persistent lesion in the head and neck region.

Oral hibernoma along with multiple lipomas
Mahaboob Shahnaz, Nair Shalini, Abdul Qayyum Shereefa, Kuruvilla VikasJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2023 27(5):20-23 'Hibernoma' is a neoplasm that arises from vestiges of fetal brown fat, and its occurrence in oral cavity is extremely rare. Its most common locations include thighs, the inter-scapular region, and the cervical region. In the present case, a 37-year-old male patient reported to our department with a localized swelling on his lower left labial mucosa along with multiple cutaneous well-defined swellings on his right arm and abdominal region. Incisional biopsy was carried ou...

Glomus tumor in the buccal mucosa: A case report and review of the literature
We present a 37-year-old male patient with a chief complaint of an exophytic lesion in the left buccal mucosa for one year referred to our center. At the time, he did not have any pain or lymphadenopathy. The patient underwent surgery using a high-power CO2 laser. His histopathological examination revealed a glomus tumor. After 2 years of follow-up, no evidence of recurrence was detected. Glomus tumors should be taken seriously when patients have a painless exophytic bluish lesion in the buccal mucosa.

Low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma of the mandible: A rare tumour of childhood
Saikat Mitra, Satnam S Jolly, Anindita Sinha, Debajyoti ChatterjeeJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2023 27(5):10-14 Low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma is a rare and indolent tumour of soft tissue. This tumour is relatively common in the head and neck region followed by extremities. Primary low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma of the mandible is very rarely reported and the occurrence of this tumour in a child is very unusual. A 7-year-old male child presented with a swelling in right angle of mandible. X-ray and computed tomography scan showed a lytic lesion. The lesion was excised and the tissue was sent for histo...

Extensive tongue lymphangioma followed for eight years: Case report
Francisco Nunes Junior, Everton J da Silva, Ana L. L. M Paz, Luiz E. R VolpatoJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2023 27(5):6-9 Lymphangiomas are benign hamartomatous tumours similar to lymphatic vessel neoplasms, originating from lymphatic tissue sequestration and may or may not communicate with the rest of the system. There are several treatment options for lymphangioma, such as surgery, sclerotherapy, cryotherapy, lasers, steroids and bleomycin. Although surgery is the most indicated treatment, it can result in severe sequelae and loss of function in patients. The present case shows a 5-year-old patient diagno...

Non-familial paediatric oral myofibroma - A masquerade. Case report with a brief literature review
Spoorti Kulkarni, Adarsh Kudva, Srikanth Gadicherla, Sunitha CarnelioJournal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology 2023 27(5):1-5 Myofibromas are fibrous tumours that could be of familial or non-familial origin, belonging to the fibroblastic and myofibroblastic subset with a wide spectrum of clinical behaviour. Oral myofibromas present with a broad range of differential diagnoses, including benign and malignant lesions. Histopathologically, these lesions may imitate many other soft tissue tumours of the oral cavity, such as spindle cell tumours of nerve, smooth muscle cell origin, and other myofibroblastic lesions, thus lea...

Unexpected additional pathologies at the surgical margins of oral squamous cell carcinoma
Conclusion: A significant number of accidental pathologies exist at the surgical margins of OSCC. This effect could be because of over-emphasis on the tumour status at the surgical margins, which leads to over-looking of minor pathologies. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Significance and expression of p-Akt in oral squamous cell carcinoma
Conclusion: High expression of p-Akt and its relation with the progression of tumor grade and invasion of tumor may indicate the relationship between p-Akt expression and aggressiveness and progression of the tumor. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Correlation of density of microvessels and myofibroblasts with the aggressiveness of central giant cell granulomas of jaws: A preliminary study
Conclusions: Angiogenesis and density of myofibroblasts significantly differ in aggressive and non-aggressive cases of CGCGs. The aggressiveness of CGCG case can be predicted using the obtained formula by entering the values of vascular parameters and myofibroblasts. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)

Quantification of inflammatory, angiogenic, and fibrous components of reactive oral lesions with an insight into the pathogenesis
Conclusion: Reactive oral lesions are histologically distinct, yet they exhibit considerable overlap depending on the stage of the lesion. A morphometric quantitative exploration of the individual pathogenic components may aid in specific diagnosis. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology)
