Intrapericardial foregut cyst associated with intrauterine death.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intrapericardial developmental foregut cysts are rare and are most frequently incidental findings at necropsy in adults. A 29 year old Asian woman delivered a 24 week stillborn fetus seven days after diagnosis of intrauterine death caused by rupture of a foregut cyst. Multiple cysts occupied the wall of the right atrium and its rupture caused haemopericardium and cardiac tamponade.

Intrapericardial bronchogenic duplication cyst.
Bronchogenic cysts arise from an abnormal budding of the ventral diverticulum of the foregut or the tracheobronchial tree, during embryogenesis. Intrapericardial cysts are rare, accounting for 27% of bronchogenic cysts. In this case report, we present a young woman with a symptomatic intrapericardial bronchogenic cyst compressing the superior vena cava. The cyst was resected via median sternoto...
متن کاملSpontaneous rupture of a giant intrapericardial bronchogenic cyst.
Bronchogenic cysts arise from an abnormal budding of the ventral diverticulum of the foregut or the tracheobronchial tree during embryogenesis. They are rarely found intrapericardially. Herein, we report the case of a 43-year-old man who presented with a ruptured intrapericardial bronchogenic cyst (IBC), with aggravating symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath.

متن کاملManagement of Fetal Bronchogenic Lung Cysts: A Case Report and Short Review of Literature
Congenital malformations of the lung (CML) are rare with similar embryological and clinical spectra and could result in mortality if left untreated. Bronchogenic cysts are formed during the budding of the tracheal diverticula and ventral foregut in the embryological period. In this paper we want to present a case of bronchogenic cyst with continuous intrauterine cyst aspiration follow-up. After...
متن کاملIntrapericardial teratoma as a cause of fetal death--a case report.
Intrapericardial teratoma is a rare congenital tumor that without treatment leads to cardiac failure in either the prenatal or postnatal period. Early diagnosis and recent surgical advances can, in some cases, delay development of intrauterine symptoms and allow final treatment through a tumor resection. However, a large number of intrapericardial tumors go undetected during prenatal diagnostic...
متن کاملLate incidental diagnosis of intrapericardial teratoma - A case report.
We report a case of intrapericardial teratoma, which is a rare primary cardiac tumor usually found in newborns and infants. Cardiac teratomas can cause respiratory failure, large accumulations of pericardial fluid and cardiac compression leading to death in the intrauterine or neonatal period. The case described is rare because it is of a 16-year-old asymptomatic girl with an intrapericardial t...
