She experienced nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and headache and disturbance of consciousness induced by hyponatremia at a serum

Hydatid cyst has a predilection to involve liver and lungs. Most of the reported cases of appendiceal hydatid cyst are primary, and secondary involvement has been rarely reported in the English-language literature. Herein, we report a 47-year-old man who presented with abdominal pain, fatigue, and

Rathke cleft cysts are remnants of the Rathke pouch. Most of them are asymptomatic, but sometimes they can grow enough to cause compression of structures within and/or close to the sella, thus eliciting symptoms such as visual disturbance, pituitary defects, and headache. Asymptomatic cysts can

A 12-year-old boy with a choledochal cyst type I is reported with clinical features of abdominal pain, postprandial vomiting, weight loss and fatigue since 3 months.

Pituitary abscess is relatively rare. Only about 80 cases have been reported. Preexisting lesions in pituitary fossa, such as pituitary adenoma, craniopharyngioma and Rathke's cleft cyst, are inclined to be complicated by infection more than the normal pituitary glands are. We reported a case of

Pancreatic cysts include a variety of benign, premalignant, and malignant lesions. Endometrial cysts in the pancreas are exceedingly rare lesions that are difficult to diagnose pre-operatively. This report describes the findings in a 43-year-old patient with a recent episode of acute pancreatitis
