A postmenopausal lady presented with an uncomplicated umbilical hernia and a hugely distended abdomen without any other overt symptoms. A large pelvi-abdominal lump was palpable. CT showed a huge mass which filled up the entire pelvis and most of the abdomen, with a part of it protruding through the umbilicus. Diagnosis was established histopathologically, as a benign mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary.

Abstract Background Mucinous cystadenoma (MC) of the kidney is exceedingly rare. We found 22 similar cases in the literature. These masses are underdiagnosed due to radiologic similarities with simple renal cysts. Case presentation A 66-year-old man with a previous history of hypertension and anxiety was referred to our tertiary clinic with left flank pain. Ultrasound revealed a 60 mm-sized, complex cystic mass with irregular septa in the lower pole of the left kidney (different from last year's sonographic findings of a simple benign cyst with delicate septa). CT scan showed the same results plus calcification. Due to suspected renal cell carcinoma, a radical nephrectomy was performed. Postoperative histopathologic examination revealed a cyst lined by a single layer of columnar mucin-producing cells with small foci of pseudo-stratification, consistent with the MC’s diagnosis. The first follow-up visit showed normal blood pressure without medication and no flank pain and anxiety after a month. Conclusion It is quite challenging to distinguish the primary MC of the kidney from a simple renal cyst based on clinical and imaging findings. The radiologic features of these entities overlap significantly. Thus, complex renal cyst and renal cysts with mural nodules should be followed closely to detect malignancy earlier.

Abstract Introduction/Objective Mesenteric cysts are rare intra-abdominal lesions in adults. However, with the advanced imaging techniques and laparoscopic techniques, they are more often being identified and resected when clinically significant. There is a lack of detailed information in histopathology (except as case reports) since mesentery is generally neglected in our organ-based textbooks. The aim of our study is to highlight the importance of identifying and classifying mesenteric cystic lesions; they are not all that simple. Methods We performed a retrospective search on all mesenteric cysts submitted as excisions in our electronic database from 2013-2019. We classified them as per the de Perrot (PMID: 11053936) classification with modification. Results Our search showed: A. Lymphatic origin-11 (lymphangioma-10, Lymphangioma hamartomatous-1, associated with LAM-0), B. Mesothelial origin-68 (Benign mesothelial cysts-57, multilocular mesothelial cyst-11), C. Enteric origin- 3, D. Urogenital origin (Urachal cyst, mullerian inclusion cyst)-9, E. Mature cystic teratom-2, F. Pseudocyst-12, G. Epithelial cyst (not urogenital)- 11 (a/w LAMN-3, MCN-4, Mucinous cystadenoma-4), H. Associated with carcinoma-2. Case illustration: A 61-year-old male presented with worsening dysphagia, emesis and hiccups. A CT scan showed a 21.2 cm cystic mass with at least one septation (Fig 1). The cyst was resected. On gross pathological examination, the cyst measured 18 cm in greatest dimension with a thick, rough, tan-brown capsule. Microscopic examination showed a fibrous capsule, and cyst wall composed of numerous lymphatic vessels (CD31 positive) and prominent smooth muscle proliferation (Desmin positive). Scattered lymphoid aggregates were also present throughout the cyst wall. No definite epithelial lining was identified and was suspected to have been denuded. HMB-45 immunostain was negative, ruling out association with LAM. The final diagnosis of a Lymphangiomyoma, hamartomatous was rendered. Conclusion Though most of the mesenteric cysts are benign, some of them are significantly important such as Lymphangiomyoma (esp secondary to LAM), MCN, those associated with LAMN etc. and identifying and differentiating from their mimics has distinct clinical implications.

Abstract Background Umbilical hernias are a frequent and well-known pathology in children or adults. Congenital umbilical hernias are commonly diagnosed in childhood, and in adulthood such a hernia is usually acquired. Umbilical hernia in pregnancy may result in serious obstetric complications including antepartum hemorrhage, intrauterine fetal demise, and preterm labor, particularly if incarcerated. Case presentation We present a rare case of a congenital umbilical hernia in a term pregnancy. The patient was a 34-year-old African (Malawian) woman, living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and on antiretroviral treatment, gravida 4, with three previous vaginal deliveries, and with two babies weighing 4 kg at birth. We performed herniorrhaphy at caesarean section, and at 3 months of follow-up she had no evidence of a recurrent hernia. Conclusion Congenital umbilical hernias are commonly diagnosed in childhood but might first be seen by medical practitioners in adulthood. A patient-centered approach addressing patient complaints, associated risk factors, and possible complications is recommended. Primary repair at caesarean section is a feasible option.

Abstract Background Patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis with ascites frequently have umbilical hernias with a prevalence of 20% and are managed with large volume paracentesis (LVP). Common complications of LVP include hemorrhage, infection, and bowel perforation that occur infrequently with a frequency of less than 1%. However, incarceration of umbilical hernias has been reported as a rare complication of LVP and is speculated to be from ascitic fluid decompression that reduces the umbilical hernia ring diameter resulting in entrapment of the hernia sac. It is unclear whether the quantity or the fluid removal rate increases the herniation risk. Based on case series, this rare complication occurs within 48 hours of the LVP and requires emergent surgical repair and involves a high risk of morbidity and mortality due to potential infection, bleeding, and poor wound healing. Aims We describe a case report of an incarcerated umbilical hernia following a bedside large-volume paracentesis. Methods Case report Results A 59-year-old Caucasian male presented to the emergency department with a 24-hour history of acute abdominal pain following his outpatient LVP. His medical history included Child-Pugh class C alcoholic liver cirrhosis with refractory ascites managed with biweekly outpatient LVP and a reducible umbilical hernia. He reported the onset of his abdominal pain 2-hours after his LVP with an inability to reduce his umbilical hernia. Seven liters of clear, straw-coloured asitic fluid was drained. Laboratory values at presentation revealed a hemoglobin of 139 g/L, leukocyte count of 4.9 x109 /L, platelet count of 110 xo 109 /L, and a lactate of 2.7 mmol/L His physical exam demonstrated an irreducible 4 cm umbilical hernia and bulging flanks with a positive fluid wave test. Abdominal computed tomography showed a small bowel obstruction due to herniation of a proximal ileal loop into the anterior abdominal wall hernia, with afferent loop dilation measuring up to 3.4 cm. He was evaluated by the General Surgery consultation service and underwent an emergent laparoscopic hernia repair. There was 5 cm of small bowel noted to be ecchymotic but viable, with no devitalized tissue. He tolerated the surgical intervention with no post-operative complications and was discharged home. Conclusions Ultrasound-guided bedside paracentesis is a common procedure used in the management of refractory ascites and abdominal wall hernia incarceration should be recognized as a potential rare complication. To prevent hernia incarceration, patients with liver cirrhosis should be examined closely for hernias and an attempt should be made for external reduction prior to LVP. A high index of suspicion for this potential life-threatening condition should be had in patients who present with symptoms of bowel obstruction following a LVP. Funding Agencies None

Laparoscopic Cystectomy

Mucinous cystadenoma arises from the totipotent surface epithelium of the ovary. Its association with Brenner tumor suggests its origin as mucinous metaplasia of the epithelioid cells. The chance of malignancy is 5–10 percent. Patients usually present with abruptly increasing abdominal mass. Cystectomy is the management of choice in these cases. It was managed by laparoscopy.
