A 56 year old woman was admitted to our hospital with a 9-year history of recurrent, lower abdominal pain and mucoid vaginal discharge 20 years after an appendiceal uterine transplantation. The removal of the uterus and the attached appendix resulted in the disappearance of the symptoms. A mechanism
We presented a case with sphenoid sinus mucocele associated with recurrent visual disturbance on the same side. A 22-year-old female showed two episodes of visual disturbance on the left eye for three months. She was diagnosed as acute retrobulbar optic neuritis and was treated with cortico-steroid.
We present the case of a male with a history of nasal polyposis underwent bilateral nasosinusal endoscopic surgery. He went to the emergency department because of having behavioral changes and left frontal headache. An emergency CT showed nasal-sinus polyposis and several nodular lesions with a
Mucoceles are nonneoplastic cystic lesions of major and minor salivary glands which result from the accumulation of mucus. These lesions are most commonly seen in children. Though usually these lesions can be treated by local surgical excision, in our case, to avoid intraoperative surgical
Four patients with an isolated sphenoid lesion: three with a mucocele and one with an Aspergillus infection of the sphenoid sinus in whom the orbital impairment had a rhinogenic cause, are described. They all presented with one or more of the following features: visual loss, motility disturbances,
BACKGROUND
Periorbital infection following pansinusitis is a rare complication which can lead to irreversible orbital and intracranial consequences. Chandler classified them in 1970.
METHODS
An eight-year-old child presented with a subperiosteal superolateral abscess. The initial flu-like syndrome
Intestinal strangulation caused by a mucocele of the appendix is extremely rare and difficult to diagnose. It is not usually suspected pre-operatively. This report presents a case of intestinal strangulation due to a mucous containing cystic lesion that was wrapped around the base of a loop of the
A 22-year-old woman presented with an acute compressive optic neuropathy due to a ruptured ethmoido-orbital mucocele. She underwent urgent orbital decompression and drainage of the mucocele via an endoscopic approach. Postoperatively, her course was complicated by an orbital compartment syndrome
The mechanism of lymphangiogenesis is poorly understood, and controversy exists whether it is part of the inflammatory response to tissue injury. Utilizing markers specific to lymphatics, we aimed to study if lymphangiogenesis plays a role in the tissue response of mucoceles. Twenty-three
Pediatric acute dacryocystitis typically develops due to persistence of Hasner's membrane. Pediatric paranasal mucoceles are rare entities. In contrast, chronic dacryocystitis in cases of congenital dacryostenosis is one of the most frequent pediatric ophthalmologic Mucocele of the appendix is a rare lesion (only 0;2-0.3% of all appendicectomies). It is characterized by distension of the lumen within mucus. Mucoceles are often asymptomatic and are discovered as an incidental finding either at surgery or during barium edema. There have been reports of other
Mucocele of the appendix was first described and named "Hydrops processus vermiformis" by Rokitansky in 1866. Intussusception of a appendiceal mucocele is very rare and we have been able to find only 14 previously reported cases. We present two cases with preoperative ultrasonography which is
Myxoglobulosis is a rare histologic variant of mucocele that is characterized by transformation of mucin into eosinophilic globules. The globules frequently demonstrate a lamellar pattern and are surrounded by an inflammatory cell infiltrate. Myxoglobulosis has not yet been described in laryngeal
