INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Gastric mucosal choristoma of the tongue is an extremely rare benign tumor characterized by ectopic gastric mucosa in the tongue. Since first reported in 1927, only around 100 cases have been documented. Herein, we investigated an adult case of Gastric mucosal choristoma who was referred to an ENT clinic with a chief complaint of a solid tumor at the posterior portion of the tongue. CASE PRESENTATION: A 32-year-old female presented with a posterior tongue mass initially noticed years ago that progressed over months...

Multifocal desmoid-type fibromatosis (DTF) is very rare and usually regional. We report three cases that initially appeared to be multifocal, but subsequent detailed imaging revealed unsuspected tracking along nerves in two cases. This neural spread is reminiscent of neuromuscular choristoma (NMC), a rare developmental lesion in which mature skeletal muscle cells, or rarely smooth muscle cells, infiltrate and enlarge peripheral nerves. NMC is frequently associated with DTF. These two cases suggest that DTF spread along nerves and appeared as distinct multifocal lesions while actually being contiguous...

A primary orbital respiratory cyst is a congenital choristoma that presents in the orbit and with different signs and symptoms depending on the location, which might also change the surgical approach. The aim of this report is to describe 2 new cases of primary respiratory epithelial cysts and to review the literature on presentation, management, and risk factors with different surgical approaches and complications. Two cases presenting with gradually increased proptosis had a confirmed diagnosis of a respiratory epithelial cyst...

We report a rare case of a retroperitoneal uterus-like mass communicating with the endocervix, which presented as abdominal pain and bloating associated with severe irregular vaginal and postcoital bleeding. Our patient did not have any structural abnormalities of the urogenital system or otherwise, which makes a müllerian defect unlikely in our case. Based on the diagnostic criteria for the choristoma, that theory would be excluded here as the mass communicated with the endocervix. This strengthens the theory of metaplasia, under the effect of oestrogen and accelerated by the hyperoestrogenic state of pregnancy as the most likely postulate for our patient...

Gastric heterotopia is characterized by the presence of mature gastric tissue outside the stomach, yet its occurrence in the palate has not been previously documented. We describe a case of gastric heterotopia in the hard palate of an elderly female patient, presenting as a swollen mass with associated secretion. Given the patient's age and clinical symptoms, a presumptive diagnosis of a malignant tumor originating from the minor salivary glands was made. An incisional biopsy of the mass revealed gastric heterotopia...

The entity commonly referred to as chondrolipoma is a rare and enigmatic breast lesion with unclear histogenesis and a complete lack of molecular characterization. It is uncertain whether it represents a hamartoma, choristoma, or a distinct neoplasm, including possibly a variant of mammary-type myofibroblastoma. We report two additional chondrolipomatous lesions of the breast. The lesions had varying histologic and immunohistochemical features similar to myofibroblastoma, including the loss of retinoblastoma (Rb) protein expression in one lesion...

Fetal lingual tumors are very rare, and their early prenatal diagnosis is important for defining the subsequent therapeutic strategy. In this study, we aimed to describe a case of a congenital septate lingual cyst and perform an extensive literature review on two main databases (PubMed, Web of Science), analyzing the clinical manifestations, the imaging appearance, the differential diagnosis, and particularities regarding the treatment of these tumors. The electronic search revealed 17 articles with 18 cases of mixed heterotopic gastrointestinal/respiratory oral epithelial cysts that met the eligibility criteria and were included in this review...

BACKGROUND: Neuromuscular choristomas (NMCs) are rare tumors involving aberrant intercalation of muscle fibers into peripheral nerves, most commonly the sciatic nerve. Although benign, these lesions risk developing into NMCs with desmoid-type fibrosis (NMC-DTFs), aggressive lesions potentially requiring amputation. Currently, information on NMCs and the link between NMCs and NMC-DTFs is limited in adults, with the majority of cases reported in children. We present the case of a 66-year-old male with a sciatic NMC alongside a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses-based systematic review of similar cases to better characterize this lesion in the adult population...

BACKGROUND: Lipomatosis of nerve (LN) is a rare disorder characterized by the massive enlargement of peripheral nerves, frequently accompanied by generalized fibroadipose proliferation and skeletal overgrowth. OBSERVATIONS: The authors have been routinely following a 20-year-old male for lipomatosis of median nerve at the wrist noted shortly after birth. He had undergone resection of the lesion accompanied by sural nerve grafting at another institution. Clinically, although his neurological loss of function has been stable, he has had continued soft tissue growth...

CTNNB1 mutations play important roles in the development of soft tissue tumors, such as desmoid fibromatosis (DF), sinonasal tract angiofibroma, sinonasal glomangiopericytoma, intranodal palisaded myofibroblastoma, neuromuscular choristoma (NMC), and the recently reported pseudoendocrine sarcoma. Here, we report a unique hybrid soft tissue tumor with classic DF, unusual epithelioid component, and NMC in a 23-year-old female. The classic DF and NMC and the unusual epithelioid component and NMC were locally intermixed and closely related to each other...

A 4.6-year-old spayed female German shepherd dog was admitted to a specialty hospital emergency service upon referral for suspected gastrointestinal foreign body obstruction. Free abdominal fluid was collected, and results of cytologic evaluation were consistent with a septic abdomen. An abdominal barium study revealed free gas and intraperitoneal barium, along with an obstructive gas pattern within the small bowel. Ultrasonography revealed a full-thickness jejunal perforation. On exploratory laparotomy, the perforation was noted to be located mid-jejunum with no associated mass or foreign material...

RATIONALE: A choristoma is a rare and benign neoplasm characterized by the presence of normal tissue in an anomalous anatomical location. In contrast, choristoma tend to occur in other body regions rather than within the spinal canal. Before our findings, only 4 cases of intraspinal choristoma had been recorded. Because its composition is complex and very rare, routine examinations, such as magnetic resonance imaging, are difficult to diagnose, and the possibility of its occurrence is often missed in clinical diagnosis...
