Urachal epithelial neoplasms are rare tumors that arise from the vestiges of the urachus. Mucinous cystadenomas are considered as a benign glandular tumors of the urachus. Cystadenomas are commonly found in the ovary, appendix, and pancreas. Mucinous cystadenomas of the urachus are extremely rare in the urachus, and only nine cases reported so far. We reported the 10th case of Mucinous cystadenomas of the urachus detected incidentally at the time of diagnostic laparoscopy for investigation of genitourinary tuberculosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Angiomyolipoma (AML) is a mesenchymal neoplasm seen usually in the kidney. Few cases of extra renal AML have been documented in various organs including the female genital tract, where the uterus is the most common site. To the best of our knowledge, only 4 cases of AML in the cervix have been reported in the literature. Association of AML with tuberous sclerosis is well known. Presently AML is included in the spectrum of disease entities called PEComa. We report a case of AML without tuberous sclerosis arising from the uterine cervix, which has to be differentiated from lipoleiomyoma. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cysticercosis can affect any organ or tissue of the body. Involvement of the breast is a rare presentation. In this report we present a case of 22 years young married woman who came with the history of painless mobile swelling in the right side of the breast. An excision biopsy was carried out. Histopathological examination revealed the presence of typical cysticercus larva and a definite diagnosis of cysticercosis was made. To conclude, cysticercosis of the breast is rare and it should be considered as a differential diagnosis for a lump in the breast.
