OBJECTIVE
Macrocystic serous cystadenoma of the pancreas are benign lesions with sometimes difficult diagnostic issues. We aimed to describe clinicopathological and imaging features with cyst fluid analysis in a series of patients undergoing surgery for macrocystic serous cystadenoma.
METHODS
Eight
BACKGROUND Primary retroperitoneal mucinous cystadenoma (PRMC) is a rare benign tumor that occurs in the retroperitoneal space. PRMC is difficult to preoperatively diagnose, and final diagnosis requires surgical resection. CASE REPORT A 39-year-old female was referred to our hospital with a chief
Biliary cystadenoma (BCA) and biliary cystadenocarcinoma (BCAC) are rare biliary duct neoplasms. This study investigated reasonable management strategies of cystic neoplasms in the liver. Charts of 39 BCA/BCAC patients (9 males, 30 female; median age 53.74 ± 14.50 years) who underwent surgery from
Hepatobiliary cystadenoma was suggested to be uncommon and it is often difficult to make a differential diagnosis. We report a case of a 65-year-old woman who presented with changes in the structure of a cyst that had been observed for the previous 10 years. Diagnostic imaging revealed a
Biliary cystic tumors, such as cystadenoma and cystadenocarcinoma, are rare cystic tumors of liver accounting for fewer than 5% of all intrahepatic cysts of biliary origin. Most biliary cystic tumors arise from intrahepatic bile duct and 10-20% arise from extrahepatic bile duct like common hepatic
An unusual case of a hepatobiliary cystadenoma caused severe abdominal pain and obstructive jaundice by rapid enlargement in a woman aged 73 years. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 12 cm cystic lesion in the left medial segment of the liver and dilatation of the intrahepatic bile ducts. The
A 53-year-old woman was admitted with upper abdominal discomfort. Clinical examination revealed a mass of the upper left quadrant. Computed tomography disclosed a giant cystic lesion of 19 x 16 cm compressing the body and tail of the pancreas as well as the left kidney. Endoscopic ultrasound showed
The expression of endogenous lectins in pleomorphic adenomas and papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum (Warthin tumour) as well as in the tissue of the normal parotid gland was investigated with the aim to determine the capacity of the different cells to specifically bind carbohydrate ligand
A giant cystic lesion of the left upper abdomen associated with a smaller ovarian cyst in a young female patient is reported. Laboratory data revealed elevated serum levels of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA), cancer antigens 50 and 125, and tissue polypeptide
The levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), elastase 1, and carbohydrate antigen determinant (CA 19-9) in the pancreatic cystic fluid and the serum from five patients with cystadenocarcinoma of the pancreas, one patient with retention cyst due to pancreatic carcinoma, three patients with
BACKGROUND
Benign pancreatic serous cystadenoma usually is morphologically distinguishable from mucinous cystadenomas, which require resection because of their malignant potential. A macrocystic variant of serous cystadenoma recently has been described, rendering this important distinction more
Hepatobiliary cystadenoma is an uncommon lesion that is difficult to diagnose preoperatively. Here we report a 34-year-old woman who presented with enlargement of a cyst that had been observed for the previous 6 months. Diagnostic imaging revealed a 7-cm diameter cystic mass with irregular multiple
CONCLUSIONS
Serous cystadenomas of the pancreas may have the biologic ability to undergo malignant transformation.
BACKGROUND
It is generally recognized that: serous cystadenomas of the pancreas are benign and that their malignant potential is low.
METHODS
A serous cystadenoma of the pancreas was
BACKGROUND
Recent interest in cyst fluid analysis (CFA) for carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and the introduction of laparoscopic surgery (LS) in the management of hepatic cysts have resulted in sporadic reports of elevated CA 19-9 and CEA levels in
OBJECTIVE
This study evaluated the significance of cystic fluid analysis and radiologic findings in the differential diagnosis of biliary cystadenomas (BCA) and hepatic simple cysts (HSCs).
BACKGROUND
BCA are premalignant lesions. The treatment of choice is surgical excision. It is important to
