Pediatric Sublingual Dermoid Cyst: Diagnostic Challenges and Surgical Management in a 13-Year-Old Boy.

BACKGROUND Ranulas are typical causes of sublingual cysts in children. However, our case was histopathologically confirmed to be a dermoid cyst. Epidermoid and dermoid cysts of the floor of the mouth account for <0.

A FSH-secreting pituitary adenoma discovered after ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome: a case report, illustrating pitfalls in the interpretation of serum FSH levels.

Background: Most cases of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) are caused by infertility treatment using human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). OHSS is widely known to have a "spoke-wheel" appearance on imaging, presenting as bilateral symmetric enlargement of ovaries with multiple cysts of varying sizes. When this spoke-wheel appearance is observed in patients not undergoing infertility treatment, tumor-derived hormones such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and hCG should be measured.

Decompression Obturator Prostheses in the Treatment of Cystic Odontogenic Lesions: A Case Series and Review of the Literature.

Background: To spare important anatomical structures from damage during treatment of cystic odontogenic lesions, decompression has become a conservative alternative to enucleation. Marsupialization, in combination with the use of a custom-made decompression prosthesis, is an effective method of inducing reduction and bony infill of cystic lesions of the jaw.

Methods: In this case series and review of the literature, we describe three patients with odontogenic cysts of the mandible who were treated with custom-made decompression obturator prostheses (DOP) at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center Dental Service.

A century ago, W.E. Sistrunk described a surgical technique still relevant today.

Research and knowledge in human embryology greatly progressed during the second half of the 19th century. This allowed optimization of surgical treatment of branchial deformities and cervical cysts in the light of their embryological development. In 1920, Walter Ellis Sistrunk described an embryologically-based technique for resection of thyroglossal duct fistulae and cysts.

Primary Systemic Amyloidosis Characterized by Multiple Keratinous Cysts: A Case Report.

A 67-year-old male presented with plaques around the orbit and ecchymosis on the neck and back of hands for 2 years. Physical examination showed seborrheic-keratosis-like plaques around the orbit, ecchymosis on the neck and back of hands, as well as nail dystrophy. Serum λ light chain was positive.

Bilateral Cystic Endosalpingiosis in Cervical Lymph Nodes Mimicking Metastatic Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Morphologically on Cytology: A Case Report and Literature Review of Diagnostic Challenges.

The presence of cystic lymph nodes in the neck can present a challenging differential diagnosis, with considerations often including metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), cystic squamous cell carcinoma, and congenital cysts. The cytologic overlap between benign Müllerian inclusions and PTC features adds complexity, especially in unusual locations. A 45-year-old woman with a history of ovarian serous borderline tumor (SBT) and non-invasive Müllerian implants presented with cystic lymphadenopathy in the neck.

Condylar osseous changes following conservative therapies: A cone-beam computed tomography longitudinal study on adult patients with degenerative temporomandibular joint disease.

This retrospective study aimed to comprehensively investigate the impact of non-surgical treatments on condylar osseous changes in adult patients with degenerative joint disease (DJD). Radiographic and clinical data were collected for analysis. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to diagnose DJD, including flattening, erosion, osteophytes, sclerosis and cysts.

Complete surgical resection of a thymic cyst located in the middle mediastinum with extension into the carina through a neck incision: A case report study.

Introduction And Significance: Thymic cysts are rare, located in the middle mediastinum, and are often asymptomatic and discovered incidentally. When they are symptomatic, the symptoms are often due to the effect of the mass, and complete surgical excision is preferred to avoid the risk of complications following their persistence.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a patient who had recurrent dyspnea and was later diagnosed with a cystic formation in the middle mediastinum by radiological investigations and successfully treated through a neck incision and completely resected.
