Apocrine Fibroadenoma of the Perianal Region Associated with Perianal Fistula

چکیده
UNLABELLED A case of a 45 year-old woman who presented with a perianal fistula was reported. Histologically, the excised lesion showed features of apocrine fibroadenoma. In addition, the lesion had both glandular and stromal growth patterns and active chronic inflammation in the background. Malignant or benign counterparts of these types of lesions are widely described in literature. However fistula does not usually accompany and is very rare. Therefore, it is crucial for the pathologists and clinicians to be aware of such lesions. The relationship between apocrine fibroadenoma and perianal region was also discussed. KEYWORDS Apocrin fibroadenoma; Perianal region; Fistula.

متن کاملWhat's your diagnosis? Painful nodules on the perineum with scarring and sinus tract formation.
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an androgen dependent acneiform eruption primarily affecting areas with apocrine hair follicles, such as the axilla, under the breasts, and the perianal and perigenital regions (Figs. 1–3). It is a chronic condition that is very difficult to treat. Sequelae in the most severe cases include painful and disfiguring scarring and an increased risk of skin cancer in ...
متن کاملOur Experience with MR Imaging of Perianal Fistulas
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) depicts infectious foci in the perianal region better than any other imaging modality. MRI allows definition of the fistula, associated abscess formation and its secondary extensions. Accurate information is necessary for surgical treatment and to obtain a decrease in the incidence of recurrence and complications. Radiologists should be familiar with anatomical ...
متن کاملMucinous adenocarcinoma arising from chronic perianal fistula.
Perianal mucinous adenocarcinoma is a rare tumor which may be associated with long-standing chronic perianal sepsis. Early diagnosis is challenging and is based on a high index of clinical suspicion and specific histological features. Definitive treatment is surgical, in the form of an abdomino-perineal resection. We hereby describe a case of a perianal mucinous adenocarcinoma arising from long...
