Primary Urachal Hydatid Cyst in a Child: A Case Report

The hydatid cyst (HC) is an endemic parasitic disease worldwide. Although the HC can locate in every part of a body, it rarely occurs over the abdominal wall. A 12-year-old female patient was brought to Department of Pediatric Surgery, Firat University School of Medicine, Elazig, Turkey in 2017. She had been suffering from abdominal pain for one week. A lump was determined underneath her skin in the suprapubic region. It was swollen, tense and movable. A cystic mass filling the midline was found in the radiological bladder superior. It was an anechoic cyst causing ondulation on the muscles of the anterior abdominal wall. The sizes of the mass were measured approximately as 9×7 cm (mesentery cyst?). The cystic mass was occurred in the urachal area of the anterior abdominal wall, not in the abdomen. After the cyst was emptied with applying mini median incision below the umbilicus, we saw the germinative membrane inside the cyst. Diagnosis of the HC was confirmed with the pathologic evaluation. For the differential diagnosis of a pure cystic mass, which can locate in every part of a body, diagnosis of the HC should be considered.

Case report: Left sided gall bladder associated with chylolymphatic cyst of mesentery of small intestine

Mesenteric cyst and left sided gall bladder both are rare entity. Incidence of mesenteric cyst is 1 per 1,00,000 to 2,50,000, a rare abdominal tumor, among which chylolymphatic mesenteric cyst is further rare. In left sided gall bladder, gall bladder is attached on left lateral sector of liver, left to falciform ligament and interlobar fissure. Left sided gall bladder can be a single anomaly or associated with other anomalies like duplicated gall bladder, hypoplastic bile duct, situs inversus, anomalous pancreatico-biliary ductal junction, absence of quadrate lobe, accessory liver. In our case it was associated with mesenteric cyst which is the first case to be reported to best of our knowledge.

Mesenteric dermoid cyst with protozoal colitis: A rare tumor with atypical presentation

Mesenteric dermoid cysts are one of the most rare intra-abdominal tumors. Till date, very few cases of dermoid cysts of mesentery have been reported in adults. Due to imprecise clinical features and very low incidence, these cysts may present a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. We present a rare case of mesenteric dermoid cyst along with protozoal colitis in a 50-year-old female.

A giant chylolymphatic cyst presenting as intestinal obstruction in a neonate

We are reporting a case of giant chylolymphatic cyst of mesentery that presented with obstruction in a neonate. On exploratory laparotomy surgical excision of the cyst along with ileum was carried out. The cyst was diagnosed as chylolymphatic cyst on histopathological examination. Due to rarity, we are prompted to report this case.

Giant Ovarian Cyst That May Be Confused With Mesentery Cyst

Ovarian cysts may reach giant size and may usually be confused with intraabdominal mesentery cysts, acid accumulation or inclusion cysts. They usually appear with intestinal system findings and abdominal distention. Computed tomography (CT) may be used for the detection of size and origin of the cysts. Midline laparotomy should be preferred due to the likelihood of malignity and confusion with other intraabdominal pathologies. Treatment protocol is determined based upon the patient’s fertility. A 52-year-old female patient, who was admitted with constipation and abdominal distention, and was detected to have a mucinous cystadenoma measuring 25 cm originating in the left ovary, is presented in this paper. J Med Cases. 2014;5(6):326-328 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.14740/jmc1776w

Outcomes of surgical treatment of malrotation in children

Abnormalities of rotation and fixation of the intestines are of intense interest to the pediatric surgeon, as they are frequently associated with volvulus which has catastrophic consequences when diagnosis is delayed or not even considered. This study evaluates the outcomes of surgical management of intestinal malrotation (IM) in children. The medical records of all patients with symptomatic malrotation, who underwent surgery between January 2000 and September 2009, were reviewed. Patients' characteristics, management, complications, and survival were evaluated. Nine patients (eight boys and a girl) underwent surgery for malrotation at a median age of 15 days. Eight presented with acute symptoms and one with chronic symptoms. All the patients had symptoms of intermittent or complete upper intestinal obstruction, and malrotation was documented by an upper gastrointestinal contrast study in two of them. Volvulus was found at the time of surgery in seven patients, five of whom were neonates. One patient also had associated mesentery cyst. Seven patients were treated by Ladd's operation. One patient with massive bowel gangrene due to volvulus had right hemicolectomy. There was one perioperative death from anastomostic leak. Median length of stay was 9 days. Postoperative bowel obstruction was seen in two patients (one died), resulting in an overall mortality of 22.2%. Bowel gangrene from volvulus contributes to mortality, and small bowel adhesive intestinal obstruction is a cause of morbidity and mortality following surgery for IM. Neonates with bilious vomiting should raise the suspicion of malrotation until proven otherwise and given prompt intervention. There is a need for high index of suspicion in babies with bilious vomiting especially when recurrent to prevent devastating complications when present.

Bronchogenic cyst of the ileal mesentery: a case report and a review of literature

IntroductionBronchogenic cyst is a rare clinical entity that occurs due to abnormal development of the foregut; the majority of bronchogenic cysts have been described in the mediastinum and they are rarely found in an extrathoracic location.Case presentationWe describe the case of an intra-abdominal bronchogenic cyst of the mesentery, incidentally discovered during an emergency laparotomy for a perforated gastric ulcer in a 33-year-old Caucasian man.ConclusionsBronchogenic cyst should be considered in the differential diagnosis of subdiaphragmatic masses, even in an intraperitoneal location.

A Giant Lymphatic Cyst of the Transverse Colon Mesentery

Mesenteric cysts are not uncommon in pediatric age group but giant lymphatic cysts of mesentery are reported infrequently. This is a report of six years old female who had vague abdominal pain with distension for two years. Investigations revealed a large cystic mass in abdomen. On exploration a giant lymphatic cyst in the mesentery of transverse colon found. More than 1500 ml of milky fluid was drained. The cyst was unilocular and appeared to be the collection of lymph (chyle) between two leaves of the mesentery of transverse colon. It is postulated that trauma to or malformation of lymphatics at the root of mesentery might have lead to this pathology.

Linfangioma cístico do mesentério: uma rara apresentação de abdômen agudo

Mesenteric cyst is a rare intra abdominal pathology. The incidence ranges from 1/100,000 to 1/250,000 hospital admissions. The authors present a case of a female patient, 20 years old, with abdominal pain for four months which three days had an acute onset of abdominal pain, and ultrasound revealed a cyst of mesentery within a dense fluid. The patient had been submitted to a laparotomy, and resection of the cyst. We emphasized the clinical symptoms, diagnostic evaluation and the therapeutic of this condition.
