“…Fibrosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, spindle cell carcinoma, and SCSR are all types of malignant tumors that can be found in the head and neck in adults with spindle cells that appear on histopathologic tests. 2,9 Immunohistochemical staining can further delineate malignant spindle cell tumors. In most cases, SCSR stains are positive for desmin, vimentin, and myogenin or myoblast determination protein 1 (muscular immunomarkers).…”

“…The PSSS was used to measure the symptoms of distress that occurred in the last 7 days. There scale has 26 total items, with each item rated and valued on a 4-point scale from not at all rated (0) to all the day rated ( Shamim, 2012 ); the scale usually takes 15 min to complete. It was used to measure two main dimensions of symptoms, namely psychological and somatic complaints.…”

“…The term psyche originally meant “soul or mind,” but it has subsequently been referred to as behavior. In contrast, soma denotes the organism’s body Psychosomatic refers to a wide range of concepts, from illnesses to biopsychosocial research and consultation-liaison work ( Chandrashekar and Math, 2006 ; Shamim, 2012 ; Dhimole et al, 2016 ). According to the biopsychosocial model ( Engel, 1977 ), it refers to the connection of psychological and biological factors that are associated with the concept of health and disease.…”

The current study was aimed to assess the reliability and validity of the Urdu version of the Psychosomatic Symptoms Scale (PSSS) in Pakistani patients. The PSSS is time-saving and easy to administer. The field experts drafted the translated version of PSSS. The Urdu version of PSSS, Patient Health Questionnaire- 9 (PHQ-9), and Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) Urdu version were used for assessment. The translation procedure was comprised of three steps, namely forward translation, back translation, and expert panel discussion. A sample of 982 (men = 50.5% and women = 49.5%) was collected with a convenient sample technique from a general hospital and private clinic. The Cronbach’s alpha for PSSS was 0.974. The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) revealed that all the items factor loading of PSSS were more than 0.35, the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) was = 0.062, the standardized root mean residual (SRMR) was = 0.043, and the comparative fit index (CFI) was = 0.97 with 90% CI. The results also showed that women (M = 72.08, SD = 6.79) are more likely to have psychosomatic symptoms than men (M = 51.21, SD = 13.36) on P < 0.001. The PSSS Urdu version is proven to be a useful and reliable instrument for screening, monitoring, and assessing Pakistani patients’ psychosomatics symptoms.

“…Intraoral radiographic features of these lesions in the oral cavity have not been reported to date. Based on the predominance of spindle cells in histopathological sections, a working type classification has been proposed . Immunohistochemical staining is often necessary to identify the origin of cells in these lesions with spindle cell rhabdomyosarcoma tumours expressing positively for myogenic markers MyoD1, and Desmin antibody .…”

A 25-year-old male patient presented with swelling and pain in the mandibular anterior region for the previous 6 months. He had a history of repeated traumatic episodes associated with his lower incisors. A periapical radiograph revealed a radiolucent lesion involving the apices of the lower incisors, whereas cone beam computed tomography revealed a large osteolytic lesion involving all mandibular incisors and loss of labial and lingual cortical plates. Histological, immunohistochemical and bone scan examination of the curetted tissue established a differential diagnosis of spindle cell rhabdomyosarcoma of the anterior mandible. Such rare but life-threatening oral cancers can be correctly diagnosed and treated only through systematic analysis of clinical findings and examining the diseased tissue with histological and other diagnostic procedures.
