Publication Glomangiomyoma of Uncertain Malignant Potential in the Urinary Bladder: A Case Report Authors(Nepal Medical Association, 2021) Chalise, Sanat; Jha, Abhimanyu; Neupane, Prakash RajAbstract: Glomus tumour typically occurs in subcutaneous tissue but rarely in the visceral organs. Most glomus tumours are benign but few atypical glomus tumours have been reported. Herein, we report a case of a 44-year-old male who presented with hematuria. Transurethral resection of bladder tumour was done. Microscopic examination showed nests and sheets of tumor around the blood vessels. Spindle cells resembling smooth muscle were also observed. An increase in mitosis was observed. These tumour cells show diffuse and strong cytoplasmic positivity for smooth muscle actin and negative for Pancytokeratin, Desmin, Synaptophysin, Chromogranin, S100, and Cluster of Differentiation 34. Ki-67 index was approximately 5%. To our knowledge, this is the first report of Glomangiomyoma of uncertain malignant potential in the urinary bladder which is considered as an unusual variant of atypical glomus tumor. This case emphasizes the importance of broad differential diagnosis which has to be considered in the urinary bladder mass.Publication Low Grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm: A Report of Three Cases(Institute of Medicine, 2020) Sharma, Nisha; Karna, Alina; Jha, AbhimanyuABSTRACT Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) is an uncommon malignancy with varied clinical features. The most alarming complication of this neoplasm is seeding of mucin into the adjacent peritoneum leading to pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). We report three cases of LAMN. Two cases were seen post appendicectomy in 23-year old and 36-year old females. The third case was seen in 53-year-old male post Whipple procedure and hemicolectomy. LAMNs are often diagnosed incidentally, as clinical presentation is barely specific and resembles acute appendicitis. Hence it is imperative to examine all appendicectomy specimens not to miss cases of appendiceal mucinous neoplasm which can have implications on the further management of the patient.
