Enteric duplication cyst containing squamous and respiratory epithelium: an interesting case of a typically pediatric entity presenting in an adult patient

Unusual Presentation of an Ileal Duplication Cyst: A Case Report

Duplication cyst (DC) of the digestive tract is a rare embryological anomaly, presenting as a cystic formation that could be attached to any part of the digestive tract, it is a thin-walled structure made of two layers, an inner layer that is frequently lined by an alimentary epithelium, surrounded by a smooth muscle layer often shared with the adjacent digestive segment. DCs are most commonly located in the distal ileum; sometimes, they are associated with other visceral or skeletal anomalies. They are frequently discovered during childhood, following a bowel obstruction or abdominal pain. Here we report a rare case of an ileal DC lined by a pseudostratified and ciliated epithelium, discovered in an adult patient following intestinal obstruction syndrome.

An unusual case of colonic duplication cyst in an adult with dysplasia

Duplication cysts are rare benign congenital malformations typically identified in children by the age of 2 years. We report a rare case of colonic duplication cyst with dysplasia in an adult. A 32-year-old male was diagnosed with non-specific abdominal symptoms. Abdominopelvic computed tomography scan demonstrated a submucosal cystic lesion in the right colon. He underwent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy. Histopathology showed colonic duplication cyst with low grade dysplasia. He is due for a surveillance colonoscopy in 3 years. Duplication cyst in an adult colon with dysplasia is extremely rare. They are usually present in the terminal ileum. They have non-specific abdominal symptoms or can be asymptomatic. They are often identified incidentally or intraoperatively. Imaging may demonstrate a cystic lesion. Histopathology is required for definitive diagnosis. There are no guidelines or consensus on managing duplication cysts in adults. We recommend an oncological resection of the involved colon. Surveillance with routine colonoscopy is advisable.

Gastrointestinal duplication cysts: what a radiologist needs to know

Gastrointestinal tract duplication cysts are rare congenital malformations which can be diagnosed as early as the prenatal period but are frequently found in infancy or incidentally in adulthood. They can be seen throughout the alimentary tract with the most common involving the distal ileum and second most common the esophagus. Many duplication cysts are asymptomatic and thus discovered as an incidental imaging finding, though they can also be symptomatic with an array of clinical presentations dependent largely on their location. The vast majority of duplication cysts are benign; however, there are rare instances of malignant transformation reported. The aim of this review is to show how multimodality imaging can help in the diagnosis of duplication cysts at various anatomical locations. Duplication cyst can become symptomatic and in rare cases undergo malignant transformation; therefore, they are typically managed with surgical excision, particularly if found prenatally or during infancy. Given the diversity of anatomic locations, multiple differential diagnoses, and the need for surgical intervention, it is valuable to comprehend the role of multimodality imaging role in diagnosing duplication cysts.

54-cm enteric duplication cyst in a 13-year-old female

Enteric duplication cyst is a very rare condition, the affected individual may be asymptomatic. It has serious complications, on top of which is a malignant transformation tendency. To avoid these complications, resection of the duplication seems to be mandatory, even if it is an incidental finding.

A Midgut Duplication Cyst Lined by Respiratory Epithelium

Duplication cysts are an uncommon finding. Majority of these cases are found in the region of the midgut, and many have been reported in literature. However, there has been only one previous case of a midgut duplication cyst lined by respiratory epithelium. This is a rare pathology, of which very little is known about. The pathophysiology of these cases is also difficult to explain. We aim to present a case of a midgut duplication cyst in a paediatric patient, who had other abnormalities as well. We also aim to offer a hypothesis for this case.

A case of abdominal enteric cyst in China

This article introduces A case of abdominal enteric cyst in china. Patients have been successfully operated.

To investigate a case of abdominal enteric cyst in China. The patient was admitted to the china-Japan Friendship Hospital of Jilin University, which was due to intermittent pain in the left side for the last 4 months. In this surgery, CT was used to diagnose the basic condition of the patient. Surgery was used for Treatment of patients with diseases. As soon as patients have been successfully operated by laparoscopic surgery.
