Three cases of the unusual entity, müllerian duct cyst, are presented. Each was managed differently, demonstrating that with appropriate patient selection either aspiration alone, aspiration and instillation of a sclerosing agent, or transurethral resection of bladder base to establish communication and cyst drainage are successful.

Cholecystoenteric fistulas are a rare complication of chronic gallstone disease. If not diagnosed on time, they can cause several complications such as gallstone ileus, gastric outlet obstruction (Bouveret syndrome), cholangitis, or liver abscess. We present a case of a patient with chronic calculous cholecystitis, who was admitted due to unspecific abdominal discomfort and impaired liver function with increased cholestatic liver enzymes.

Gallstone disease during pregnancy, or cholelithiasis, presents significant clinical challenges due to hormonal, anatomical, and metabolic changes. Progesterone therapy, commonly used in pregnancy for uterine bleeding, can exacerbate gallstone risk by reducing gallbladder motility and promoting cholesterol gallstone formation. This case report describes a 29-year-old pregnant woman with no prior gallbladder disease who developed multiple cholesterol gallstones during the third trimester while undergoing progesterone therapy for bleeding associated with a bicornuate uterus.

Background: The increased apoptosis of bile duct epithelial cells (BECs) due to some damage factors is considered the initiating factor in the occurrence and progression of biliary atresia (BA). Vitamin D receptor (VDR) is thought to play a crucial role in maintaining the intrinsic immune balance and integrity of bile duct epithelial cells (BECs). To investigate the role of VDRs in the pathogenesis and progression of BA using in vitro and in vivo models.

Purpose: Given the potential role of nasolacrimal duct (NLD) morphometry in the aetiology of primary acquired obstructions, it is imperative that clinicians have access to detailed anatomical information. The aim of this study was to determine normative data on nasolacrimal duct morphometry in the Turkish population sample and to provide guidelines for clinicians.
Methods: The study included retrospectively computed tomography images of a healthy Turkish population sample of 151 individuals, 79 of whom were female and 72 of whom were male.
