    El sarcoma sinovial es una neoplasia maligna de estirpe mesenquimal, con grados variables de diferenciaci贸n epitelial. Se clasifica dentro del diverso grupo de sarcomas de partes blandas no rabdomiosarcomas, afectando principalmente a las extremidades con predominio de las inferiores. El objetivo es presentar un caso cl铆nico inusual y conocer la evoluci贸n de la neoplasia. A continuaci贸n, se presenta un caso de una paciente mujer de 14 a帽os de edad, con dolor progresivo de dos a帽os de evoluci贸n en tercio medio de pierna derecha y con masa palpable en la regi贸n antero lateral de aproximadamente 2 cm de di谩metro, sin cambios inflamatorios. La tomograf铆a axial computarizada inform贸 una masa de bordes irregulares con afectaci贸n cortical del peron茅 y de la membrana inter贸sea. Se realiz贸 escisi贸n de la tumoraci贸n, cuyo estudio histopatol贸gico confirm贸 un sarcoma sinovial monof谩sico grado 2, por lo que se inici贸 tratamiento con quimioterapia, presentando buena respuesta al tratamiento y sin recidiva tumoral a los 4 meses postoperatorios.Synovial sarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal neoplasm with variable epithelial differentiation. It can be classified within the group of non-rhabdomyosarcomatous soft tissue sarcomas. It occurs predominantly in lower extremities. The objective is to present an unusual case and to communicate the behavior of this type of cancer. This case is about a 14-year-old female with history of 2 years of progressive pain in the middle third of her right leg; accompanied by a 2 cm palpable mass in the anterolateral region, without inflammatory changes. Computerized tomography reported a tumor of irregular borders involving the peroneal cortical and interosseous membrane. An open biopsy was performed. Histological examination revealed a monophasic synovial sarcoma (Grade 2). The patient received chemotherapy with good response to treatment and with no evidence of recurrence after 4 months

    The adrenal incidentaloma is a mass that is discovered fortuitously on an imaging procedure of the abdomen or chest; in a patient without symptoms or signs suggestive of adrenal disease. They are very rare, with less than 1% prevalence in young adults, becoming 3% in the sixth decade of life, being women the most affected ones. We present the case of a 53 years old patient, with pathological history of controlled hypertension, who by presenting mixed dyslipidemia, an abdominal US was performed to discard fatty liver, in which was found a solid mass of 40 x 38 mm in the upper pole of the left kidney without calcifications; for this reason she was referred to the outpatient Urology Department at Hospital Escuela Universitario, Tegucigalpa, Honduras, to complete studies. In its assessment a blood pressure of 130/80 mmHg and overweight (BMI = 28.1) was found, discarding other abnormalities. Uro CT was performed which revealed a solid mass of 45 x 40 x 46 mm in left adrenal gland, no fat, no calcifications, 65 UH density without contrast and 96 UH with contrast material, with a fast wash-out of the contrast. Hormonal tumor assessment was normal. Laparoscopic adrenalectomy was performed with histopathological diagnosis of pheochromocytoma. This article presents the approach to follow with this condition through a clinical case.El incidentaloma adrenal es una masa que se descubre fortuitamente en un examen de imagen abdominal o tor谩cica; en un paciente sin s铆ntomas o signos sugestivos de enfermedad suprarrenal. Son muy raros, con una prevalencia menor del 1% en adultos j贸venes, llegando a ser del 3% en la sexta d茅cada de la vida, siendo las mujeres las m谩s afectadas. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 53 a帽os, con antecedente patol贸gico de hipertensi贸n arterial controlada, la cual por presentar dislipidemia mixta se realiz贸 un USG abdominal para descartar h铆gado graso, en 茅ste se encontr贸 masa s贸lida de 40 x 38 mm en polo superior de ri帽贸n izquierdo, sin calcificaciones; raz贸n por la que fue remitida a la consulta externa de urolog铆a del Hospital Escuela Universitario, Tegucigalpa, Honduras, para completar estudios. En su evaluaci贸n se encontr贸 presi贸n arterial de 130/80 mmHg y sobrepeso (IMC = 28.1), descart谩ndose otras anomal铆as. Se realiz贸 realiz贸 Uro TAC que revel贸 masa solida de 45 x 40 x 46 mm en gl谩ndula suprarrenal izquierda, sin contenido graso, ni calcificaciones, densidad de 65 UH en fase simple y 96 UH con material de contraste, con lavado r谩pido del mismo. La evaluaci贸n hormonal del tumor fue normal. Se realiz贸 suprarrenalectom铆a laparosc贸pica con diagn贸stico histopatol贸gico de feocromocitoma. En este art铆culo se presenta el abordaje a seguir en esta patolog铆a a trav茅s de un caso cl铆nico

    Sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (SHML), a condition also known as Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is an unusual histiocytic proliferative disorder; their clinical characteristics correspond to a volume increase in cervical nodes, however, 43% of patients presents extranodal involvement. Diagnosis is based on histopathology with the phenomenon of emperipolesis with cells positive for S-100 protein. Without a treatment of choice, evolution is often spontaneous resolution, in extraganglionar compromise; illness may be progressive and fatal. An 18 year-old male is presented with previously Burkitt's lymphoma in the right orbit, diagnosed at 2 years of age, with complete remission. Three years ago presented multiple macular lesions, of red-brown color, irregular borders, progressive growth, not painful or pruritic, initially focused on face and neck, then it became generalized affecting the entire skin surface. Also presented bilateral inguinal and cervical lymphadenopathy not adhered to deep planes, no inflammatory changes, firm and slightly painful of equal time of duration. Lesion of the skin and left inguinal node biopsy histopathology was performed, in both cases reported RDD confirmed by immunohistochemical. He was treated with methylprednisolone pulse without showing improvement; then chemotherapy was indicated with cytarabine, methotrexate, vincristine, etoposide, thioguanine, asparaginase and leucovorin. He presented remission, staying in monitoring. During one of the controls in the department Pediatric Hematology and Oncology at the Hospital Escuela Universitario (HEU) 7 months ago was discovered a right inguinal lymphadenopathy, cytology reported histiocytosis; later the open biopsy of node was performed, histopathological and immunohistochemical study confirmed RDD. It was indicated Salvage chemotherapy with clofarabine; actually he completed the third cycle with good response to treatment. The purpose of this case report is to characterize skin lesions, in the context of the clinical manifestations of the ERD.La histiocitosis sinusal con linfadenopat铆a masiva (HSLM), tambi茅n conocida como enfermedad de Rosai-Dorfman (ERD) es una alteraci贸n proliferativa histioc铆tica inusual; Sus principal caracter铆stica es el aumento de volumen en ganglios cervicales, sin embargo se presenta con compromiso extranodal en el 43% de los pacientes. El diagn贸stico se basa en estudio histopatol贸gico encontr谩ndose el fen贸meno de emperipolesis, con c茅lulas positivas a la prote铆na S-100. No existe un tratamiento de elecci贸n, suele ser de resoluci贸n espont谩nea, pero cuando existe diseminaci贸n extraganglionar suele ser progresiva y fatal. Se presenta caso de paciente masculino, 18 a帽os de edad, con antecedentes patol贸gicos de Linfoma de Burkitt en 贸rbita derecha, diagnosticado a los 2 a帽os de edad, con remisi贸n completa. Presentando hace tres a帽os lesiones maculares m煤ltiples, color rojo-marr贸n, bordes irregulares, crecimiento progresivo, no dolorosas, iniciando en rostro y cuello que posteriormente afecto toda la superficie cut谩nea; concomitantemente present贸 adenopat铆as cervicales bilaterales e inguinales no adheridas a planos profundos, sin cambios inflamatorios, de consistencia firme y levemente dolorosas de igual evoluci贸n. Se realiz贸 biopsia de lesi贸n cut谩nea y de ganglio inguinal izquierdo ambos estudios histopatol贸gicos reportaron ERD confirmada por inmunohistoqu铆mica. Iniciando tratamiento con pulsos de metilprednisolona, sin mejor铆a cl铆nica; posteriormente se indic贸 quimioterapia con citarabina, metotrexato, vincristina, etop贸sido, tioguanina, asparginasa y leucovorina con remisi贸n de la enfermedad, permaneciendo en vigilancia contin煤a. Durante los controles por el servicio de Hematolog铆a y Oncolog铆a Pedi谩trica del Hospital Escuela Universitario (HEU) hace 7 meses se descubri贸 adenopat铆a en ganglio inguinal derecho, se realiz贸 estudio citol贸gico concluyendo histiocitosis; posteriormente se efectu贸 biopsia abierta de dicho ganglio, el estudio histopatol贸gico e inmunohistoqu铆mico confirmaron ERD, indic谩ndose quimioterapia de rescate con clofarabina, actualmente finaliz贸 su tercer ciclo, con respuesta satisfactoria al tratamiento. El prop贸sito de este reporte de caso es caracterizar las lesiones dermatol贸gicas, en el contexto de las manifestaciones cl铆nicas de la ERD
