PURPOSE To evaluate the outcome of sodium morrhuate 5% injections in patients with low flow vascular lesions, which consist of orbital lymphangiomas, and in one patient with intraosseous cavernous hemangioma. DESIGN Prospective, interventional consecutive case series. METHODS Intralesional sodium morrhuate 5% was injected under direct visualization or under radiographic guidance to six pati...

Introduction: Lymphangiomas are very rare benign tumors of the lymphatic system, appearing as uniseptate or multiseptate cystic masses, which are usually located in the cervical or axillary area. Postnatal outcome depends on the size and location of the lesion. An increasing number of such congenital abnormalities are detected on routine conventional prenatal ultrasonography. Although prenatal ...

. Mediastinal cystic formations are well-shaped, often round that contain fluid and lined with epithelium. The main include congenital benign cysts (bronchogenic, duplicating the esophagus, neuroenteric, pericardial thymic cysts), meningocele, mature teratomas lymphangiomas. Many tumors (e.g., thymomas, Hodgkin's disease, germ cell tumors, mediastinal carcinomas, lymph node metastases, nerve ro...

BACKGROUND Cystic lymphangiomas (CL) rarely present as intra-abdominal masses. Abdominal CL is often discussed in conjunction with mesenteric cysts; however, their histology, location and age of presentation differ significantly. In an attempt to establish a best diagnostic and treatment modality, we report our experience dealing with intra-abdominal CL during a 5-year period. METHODS Between...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Since 1991, laparoscopic splenectomy has been performed in many different pathologies of the spleen. Although it is a rare lesion, splenic lymphangiomas are cystic lesions of the spleen requiring splenectomy. Herein, we present three females who have undergone laparoscopic splenectomy with the diagnosis of cystic splenic lymphangioma. PATIENTS AND METHODS In the last four y...

conclusions primary mesenteric tumors are rare and mostly benign tumors. complete surgical excision is necessary for all tumors and follow-up is necessary after surgery for malignant fibrous histiocytoma due to recurrence. case presentation we encountered four cases of different primary mesenteric neoplasms that were operated at the gazi yasargil teaching and research hospital, department of ge...
