Pyogenic granulomas are common, acquired, benign vascular lesions of the skin and mucousmembranes that can develop both spontaneously and traumatically. Pyogenic Granuloma more commonly involves Gingiva (75% of all the cases). An extragingival occurrence of pyogenic granuloma is rare. We present an unique case of a male patient aged 24 years affected by Pyogenic Granuloma of urethral meatus. Although penile pyogenic granulomas have previously been observed over glans penis, prepuce and shaft of penis,there are no reports affecting meatus.

Morphea is a fibrosing disorder of the skin and subcutaneous tissues, wherein the overabundant collagen deposition destroys adnexal structures and hair follicles. In linear morphea erythematous or violaceous patches or plaques are seen with central sclerosis and active red border distributed in linear configuration which over time become sclerotic, white or hypopigmented. We report a series of cases encompassing all the three clinical variants of linear morphea. Case one had en coup de sabre deformity, case two had progressive facial hemiatrophy and case three had linear limb morphea with involvement of the face. This series is being reported for its rarity.
Cutaneous myxomas also called angiomyxomas are rare benign connective tissue tumours, composed of stellate cells, set in a loose mucoid stroma. These lesions have been recognized as part of Carney complex. We report a 12 year old boy affected by multiple Superficial Angiomyxomas without any other components of Carney complex.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
