    INTRODUCTION: Myofibroblastoma is a rare benign mesenchymal tumour arising from the stromal elements of the breast tissue. Histopathological variants such as classic, cellular, collagenous / fibrous, lipomatous, infiltrative, myxoid and epithelioid have been identified. Most myofibroblastomas are immunoreactive for CD34, actin, CD10 and desmin, usually express oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and variably express androgen receptor (AR).

    CASE REPORT: We report a case of myofibroblastoma in an octogenarian male presenting with painless solitary breast lump. Mammography (digital tomosynthesis) and ultrasound showed a well-circumscribed hyperdense mass and hypoechoic, solid, oval mass with peripheral vascularity respectively. Patient underwent wide local excision.

    DISCUSSION: Diverse characteristics of myofibroblastoma on imaging necessitates histopathological analysis for an accurate diagnosis. Myofibroblastoma are often confused with fibroadenomas due to the benign imaging characteristics and with malignant neoplasia due to their wide morphological spectrum. Surgical excision is considered curative.

  3. An Obstructed Malignant Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumour of the Rectum

    Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour is rare but more common in children. It shows an immunophenotypic features of myofibroblastic differentiation, hence bearing neoplastic potential. The diagnosis is challenging especially if it involves rectum. Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment if clinically obstructed. A 65-year-old gentleman presented with intestinal obstruction, which then followed by a hartmann's procedure. Final diagnosis is a rare case of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour of the rectum. We discuss its genetic involvement with a literature review.
