Successful Surgical Management of Giant Mucinous Cystic Neoplasm of Liver (MCN-L) Presenting With Peritoneal Rupture and Biliary Prolapse: Case Report and Review of Literature.

Mucinous cystic neoplasms of liver (MCN-L) are generally considered benign indolent cystic liver lesions, not associated with significant clinical symptoms in majority of patients. However, rarely these benign-appearing lesions may have a complicated clinical course, presenting with jaundice, acute abdomen, or malignant transformation. We report one such rare clinical presentation of MCN-L presenting with obstructive jaundice and abdominal pain due to prolapse of cystic component in biliary system and peritoneal rupture occurring simultaneously.

Dissecting microenvironment in cystadenomas and hepatic cysts based on single nucleus RNA-sequencing data.

Hepatic cystadenoma is a rare disease, accounting for about 5% of all cystic lesions, with a high tendency of malignant transformation. The preoperative diagnosis of cystadenoma is difficult, and some cystadenomas are easily misdiagnosed as hepatic cysts at first. Hepatic cyst is a relatively common liver disease, most of which are benign, but large hepatic cysts can lead to pressure on the bile duct, resulting in abnormal liver function.

Intra- and interobserver agreement in computed tomography localization of primary nonhematopoietic hepatic masses and comparison with surgical and histopathological outcomes in 21 cats.

Computed tomography (CT) is commonly used in the staging of hepatic masses and for liver lobectomy planning. Mass location is an important factor in determining the feasibility of resection, including surgical technique and the likelihood of surgical complications. The objectives of this retrospective descriptive cross-sectional, observer agreement, method comparison study were to assess the reliability of CT in correctly determining the hepatic division and lobar site of origin of feline primary nonhematopoietic hepatic masses, compared with surgically confirmed locations.

Resection of Biliary Cystadenoma in a Pregnant Woman: A Case Report With Five Years of Follow-Up.

Biliary cystadenomas (BCAs), rare cystic tumors occurring in the biliary system, account for fewer than 5% of cystic lesions in the liver. This case details successful resection in a 29-year-old pregnant woman at seven weeks gestation. Urgent left hemihepatectomy and cholecystectomy removed a mucinous hepatobiliary cystadenoma.

Caroli's disease misdiagnosed as bile duct cystadenoma: A case report.

Caroli's disease is also known as Congenital intrahepatic bile duct dilatation, and previously known as a congenital intrahepatic bile duct cyst; it is characterized by single or multiple intrahepatic cystic dilatations. In this article, we report a case of Caroli's disease (CT size 21.2 × 16.

A rare case of resection of a mucinous cystic neoplasm originating from the extrahepatic bile duct with cholangioscopic imaging.

A 29-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for examination of obstructive jaundice and an extrahepatic bile duct lesion. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a 20 mm cystic lesion with a thin external capsule in the common hepatic duct. Cholangioscopy revealed translucent oval masses with capillary vessels attached to the bile duct walls.

Correlation between plasma PSGL-1 and FIGO stage, tumor metastasis, and survival in epithelial ovarian cancer.

Plasma circulating P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) levels and its clinical correlation in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) are unknown. The study determined plasma PSGL-1 levels in EOC patients and investigated its relationship with clinicopathological factors and prognosis. Plasma PSGL-1 levels were measured using ELISA in 69 patients with EOC, 34 patients with benign ovarian cystadenoma, and 36 healthy controls.

Pediatric Intraabdominal Cysts-A Case Series from a Single Tertiary Center Experience.

Objective: We aimed to analyze the clinical presentation, imaging, histopathology, and surgical management of pediatric intraabdominal cysts, which are relatively common but diverse lesions that pose diagnostic challenges.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of pediatric intraabdominal cysts from 2010 to 2021 in a single tertiary center. We collected data on demographics, symptoms, radiological findings, surgical approaches, and histopathological diagnoses and compared them with the current literature.

Intrahepatic biliary cystadenoma, a challenging diagnosis and management: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Biliary cystadenoma (BC) is a benign hepatic cystic tumor with degenerative potential. Hepatic MRI can help guide the diagnosis. Surgical resection is recommended due to the malignant potential of biliary cystadenomas.

Successful Laparoscopic Resection of Biliary Cystadenoma: A Case Report.

Biliary cystadenomas are rare hepatic lesions originating from the biliary epithelium. We present the case of a 32-year-old female who presented with persistent right upper quadrant abdominal pain, prompting a thorough investigation. Mildly elevated liver enzymes were noted on laboratory testing.

Biliary Cystadenoma in a Child: A Rare Entity.

Biliary cystadenoma, a rare potentially malignant hepatic cystic lesion, is characterized by multiloculations and septations. It is common in middle-aged females (about 5% of nonparasitic liver cysts); only 12 cases are described in children. We report a rare case of hepatic biliary cystadenoma in a 3-year-old girl, with a gradually increasing lump in the right upper abdomen.

Synchronous occurrence of hepatic mucinous cystic neoplasm and serous ovarian cystadenoma.

Key Clinical Message: The coexistence of hepatic mucinous cystic neoplasm and ovarian serous cystadenoma is rare and can only be confirmed by histological examination of the surgical specimen. Complete surgical resection is the optimal treatment.

Abstract: Mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) of the liver are rare premalignant lesions that account for less than 5% of all hepatic cysts.

Cystic presentation of primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumour: a case report with a brief review of literature.

Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are a rare type of tumours that arise from the neuroendocrine cells which are distributed throughout the body. Of all the gastrointestinal tumours only 1-2% account for NETs. They have an extremely low incidence of 0.

Case report: Obstructive jaundice caused by biliary cystadenoma.

Biliary cystadenoma (also called mucinous cystic neoplasm with low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia) is a rare cystic tumor that arises from the biliary epithelium. The cause of biliary cystadenoma is still unclear. Jaundice is a rare presentation of intrahepatic biliary cystadenoma, which can lead to a diagnostic dilemma.

External validation of a machine learning based algorithm to differentiate hepatic mucinous cystic neoplasms from benign hepatic cysts.

Purpose: To externally validate an algorithm for non-invasive differentiation of hepatic mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) from benign hepatic cysts (BHC), which differ in management.

Methods: Patients with cystic liver lesions pathologically confirmed as MCN or BHC between January 2005 and March 2022 from multiple institutions were retrospectively included. Five readers (2 radiologists, 3 non-radiologist physicians) independently reviewed contrast-enhanced CT or MRI examinations before tissue sampling and applied the 3-feature classification algorithm described by Hardie et al.

Intrahepatic biliary cystadenoma: Confusion, experience, and lessons learned from our center.

Background: Intrahepatic biliary cystadenoma (IBC) is a rare benign cystic tumor of the liver. So far, it has not been comprehensively understood, which causes incorrect diagnosis, treatment confusion, and even inappropriate treatment. Here, we reviewed clinical data of IBC patients in our center, shared our experiences and lessons learned, and improved the level of diagnosis and treatment.

Cystadenocarcinoma of the intrahepatic bile duct in a dog.

A 14-year-old spayed female Shih-Tzu was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Konkuk University for evaluation of an abdominal mass. In diagnostic imaging, two large cystic masses were identified. The affected liver lobes were surgically resected, and the specimens were submitted for histopathological evaluation and immunohistochemical staining.
