Soft-tissue tumors are rare in the paranasal region. Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) is a distinctive vascular lesion most commonly seen on the skin and oral mucosa in the fourth and fifth decades of life. Forasmuch as the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses are rare locations for LCH, it is not well known by many ENT surgeons. Here we present two cases of LCH of the ethmoid sinus. These cases are being reported owing to their scarcity as per the literature published global.

Primary splenic abscess with unknown origin is rare and it could be mistaken with other conditions. We present a 24-year-old woman with abdominal pain and weight loss without fever or related symptoms. In ultrasound examination ill-defined anechoic mass-like lesion was evident, located near the splenic vein in retroperitoneum with spleno-systemic shunt. Patient underwent laparoscopy for ruling out malignancy but severe inflammation and adhesion-bands prevent further laparoscopic exploration. One week later patient's condition was deteriorated and she underwent second surgical exploration. In laparotomy spleen was surrounded by an abscess wall and splenectomy was done. Histopathological examination revealed subcapsular splenic hemorrhage with abscess formation.
