Metanephric Adenofibroma Masquerading as Wilms’ Tumor

Metanephric adenofibroma is a rare, biphasic, benign tumor containing both stromal and epithelial components and could be potentially mistaken as Wilms’ tumor (WT). We present a 5-year-old girl who was suspected to have metastatic Wilms’ tumor on radiological investigations/tru-cut biopsy and had received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, but postoperatively final histopathology revealed it as metanephric adenofibroma. No postoperative chemotherapy was given

Antero-posterior Duplicate Exstrophy with a Wet Bladder Plate: A Diagnostic Dilemma

Variants of exstrophy are rare anomalies seen in the spectrum of bladder exstrophy-epispadias complex. We present a rare case of duplicate exstrophy with a wet bladder plate. This is a deviation from the classical description of antero-posterior duplicate exstrophy that is associated with a dry bladder plate.

Congenital Syngnathia; Turmoils and Tragedy

Congenital syngnathia is an extremely rare condition with no standardized treatment. We hereby report a case highlighting the difficulties faced in its management and the postoperative complications.

Giant Choledochal Cyst in A Neonate

Choledochal cysts (CDC) are increasingly diagnosed in antenatal period [1]. Occasionally, these cysts may grow to a very large size and differentiation from other cystic masses of the abdomen can be challenging. There is also a debate regarding the timing of surgery, optimal management strategy, and the type of surgery. Enteric biliary diversion procedures are not only technically difficult but are also associated with the high rates of postoperative complications in the neonatal period [2].

Thoracoscopic excision of foregut duplication cyst: A case report and review of literature

Thoracoscopy has major advantages over thoracotomy. We report a successful management of foregut duplication cyst thoracoscopically in a child with review of literature.

Symptomatic Mullerian Duct Cyst in a Male Infant.

Symptomatic Mullerian duct cyst is a rare entity in children. A 9-month-old male infant presented with bowel and urinary obstructive symptoms. Imaging investigations revealed a cystic mass in the rectovesical pouch compressing bladder neck and rectum. At laparotomy, a Mullerian duct cyst was found. Most of the cyst was excised and the remaining cyst mucosa was cauterized. The child improved thereafter.
