Publication Primary Laryngotracheal Amyloidosis Masquerading as Malignancy(Kathmandu University, 2019) Devkota, K; Adhikari, K; Poudel, SABSTRACT Amyloidosis represents a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by the deposition of amyloid protein in various target organs of the body. Amyloidosis is classified as systemic or local. Larynx is the common site for localized amyloid deposition and patient usually presents with hoarseness of voice. Because of the similar clinical and imaging features to malignant laryngeal mass, diagnostic confusion occurs and histopathological confirmation is usually needed. Although laryngeal tracheo-bronchial amyloidosis is rare, it should be considered among the differentials of benign laryngeal tumors. KEY WORDS Amyloidosis, Laryngotracheal, MalignancyPublication Undifferentiated Embryonal Sarcoma of the Liver in Adult Mimicking Hepatic Abscess(Kathmandu University, 2025) Adhikari, K; Bhattarai, M; Devkota, KABSTRACT Undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma is an uncommon malignant tumor of liver of mesenchymal cell origin, usually observed in children. We report a case in a 34 years old male who presented with right upper quadrant pain. Ultrasonography showed a complex solid cystic lesion. However, on computed tomography it appeared as predominantly cystic with small solid components within. It was initially diagnosed as hepatic abscess. After failure to improve on conservative treatment, the patient underwent surgical resection and histopathology revealed undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma. Here we describe the typical clinical and radiologic features of this rare tumor. KEY WORDS Adult, CT scan, Undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma of liver, Ultrasonography
