dermoid cyst/edema

A case with massive ovarian edema (MOE) of left ovary--a rare pseudotumour and mature cystic teratoma of right ovary is described in a young unmarried girl of 16 years. The etiopathological concepts, morphological changes and differential diagnosis are described. Knowledge about the entity and its

BACKGROUND Massive ovarian edema is a rare entity, which in most cases occurs in adult females presenting with abdominal pain. We present an unusual case associated with contralateral teratoma in a premenarchal female. METHODS A 13-year-old asymptomatic female presenting with an abdominopelvic mass

We report a case of a holocord high-intensity lesion extending from L1 up to the medulla oblongata on T2-weighted spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) associated with an intramedullary spinal abscess secondary to an infected dermoid cyst. The intraoperative findings revealed that the

Magnetic resonance images were acquired of the brain of a 7-year-old male Golden Retriever with hydrocephalus secondary to a medullary lesion. Images were acquired prior to and 4 weeks following surgical treatment for the hydrocephalus, and the dog was euthanased following the second imaging

A 22-year-old man with a recurrent intraconal cystic mass of the orbit presented with proptosis, motility restriction, and optic disc edema. On initial surgery, the cyst wall showed nonkeratinized cuboidal epithelium with adnexal structures. After recurrence, repeat histopathologic evaluation again

We report the case of an 84-year-old woman who came to our attention with right palpebral edema associated with pain in the omolateral fronto-orbital region. The patient underwent an MRI scan that revealed a rounded, extracerebral intradiploic cystic lesion with dyshomogeneous signal intensity.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical outcomes of ruptured dermoid cysts. METHODS A multicenter, retrospective study of all cases of periorbital and orbital dermoid cysts with histopathological evidence of rupture, including those with clinical rupture, was performed over a 10-year period. Demographics

Dermoid cysts are epithelial-lined cavities with skin adnexae in the capsule. Only 7% is present in the head and neck. Between 2004 and 2013, four patients with a lingual dermoid cyst underwent a microsurgical carbon dioxide laser resection via a median sagittal glossotomy approach. This approach is

This report describes a rare case of a patient with lipoma presenting with epileptic seizures associated with expanding perifocal edema. The patient was a 48-year-old man who presented with loss of consciousness and convulsions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a calcified mass in the

BACKGROUND Mature, benign cystic teratomas of the ovary are common in reproductive-age women, but they are very rarely associated with androgen production and subsequent development of hirsutism or virilization. We describe a case of postmenopausal hirsutism and hyperandrogenism caused by a mature

A dermoid cyst of the posterior fossa in a 73-year-old man is reported. The presentation of the cyst was unusual because of the age of the patient, the spontaneously hyperdense aspect of the mass on CT, the partial rim enhancement of the lesion, and the presence of perilesional edema. On pathologic

A dermoid cyst is a tumor frequently located in the external third of the fronto-orbital region. It develops along the line of embryonic fusion of the naso-optic groove, infolding the ectoderm during embryonic development. The classic treatment is complete surgical resection by means of an external

Typical dermoid cysts are well-circumscribed fat-density masses with no associated contrast enhancement; rarely, they may appear hyperattenuating on CT scan. CT hyperattenuating dermoid cyst (CHADC) is very uncommon, with only nine case reports in the literature update, which occurs exclusively in

OBJECTIVE To assess the surgical and clinical outcomes of anterior lamellar keratoplasty using anterior corneal buttons from Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) donor tissue. METHODS Retrospective data from 8 patients with unilateral limbal dermoids, treated between

METHODS A 60- year-old Hungarian woman known to be alcohol-dependent, consulted her family physician because of generalized weakness and an enlarged abdomen Her doctor started diuretic treatment assuming that liver cirrhosis with ascites was the cause. After three months she was referred to our
