BACKGROUND An abdominoscrotal hydrocele (ASH) is a rare lesion and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of abdominal cystic lesions in boys. CASE REPORT We report a case of a 4-month-old boy with a thin-walled, anechoic cystic abdominal mass in ultrasound (US) examination. As the size of the lesion increased in follow-up US after one month, computed tomography (CT) was performed...

Cystic lymphangiomas of the small bowel mesentery are rare manifestations of intra-abdominal tumors. Usually, they are discovered incidentally during examination for an unrelated abdominal illness. We present a case of a 4-year-old boy who was admitted to our hospital because of the right lower quadrant acute abdominal pain suspect of acute appendicitis.

Surgi...

A 7-year-old boy presented to the neurosurgery clinic with neck pain. There was no history of surgery and trauma. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed cystic mass that contained internal septation and fluid-fluid levels at C3 level (Figs. 1 and 2). C3 vertebral body was destructed. Right vertebral artery was surrounded with cystic mass. The cystic mass was hyperintense on T2-weighted images and ...

Struma ovarii (SO) is a rare special type of monodermal teratoma of ovary that predominantly consists of thyroid tissue (> 50%). In only 5 to 20% of cases hyperthyroidism is seen due to functional SO. We are reporting here a case of unilateral benign cystic SO in a 50-year-old postmenopausal lady presented with pain and heaviness in lower abdomen without any signs and symptoms of hyperthyroidis...

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS We report on a 75-year-old man who was admitted due to pancreatic cystic lesion accompanied by a solid mass with liver metastasis. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) was performed on the solid mass, and pathological findings revealed the lesion to be an adenocarcinoma diagnosed as intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma (IPMC). Approximately...
