Eosinophilic Cystitis

Abstract Background Eosinophilic cystitis is a rare inflammatory disease of the bladder characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the bladder wall. Most Eosinophilic cystitis cases present with mucosal lesions of the urinary bladder. We present a very rare case of large mass-forming eosinophilic cystitis, involving the inside and outside of the bladder associated with an infected urachal cyst. Case presentation A 59-year-old man presented with gross hematuria, fever, dysuria, and suprapubic pain. Computed tomography showed a heterogeneously enhancing mass that measured 7.6 cm × 4 cm located on the anterosuperior portion of the bladder with an internal fluid collection. Cystoscopy revealed a raspberry-like mass lesion on the bladder dome. Transurethral resection of the bladder was initially performed. The mass lesion protruding from inside the bladder was removed, and pus-like fluid was drained. The pathologic diagnosis was eosinophilic cystitis. Follow-up computed tomography showed a remnant mass outside the bladder and urachal cyst. To eliminate the remnant lesion, robot-assisted partial cystectomy was performed. The patient showed no evidence of recurrent disease on follow-up cystoscopy and computed tomography for up to 2 years. Conclusions Clinicians should consider the possibility of eosinophilic cystitis in patients who present with hematuria, fever, and suprapubic pain and have both intravesical and extravesical masses.

Pancreatic Head Tumor

There have been no reports of ruptured solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) into adjacent organs. A 22-year-old female was referred to our hospital for treatment of a pancreatic head tumor. Computed tomography (CT) examination at our hospital showed a 5-cm tumor containing air, although CT at a previous hospital revealed an 8-cm tumor without air. Thus, a spontaneous rupture of the tumor into the duodenum was suspected. Subtotal stomach preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy with combined resection of the portal vein was performed. Contrast radiography of resected specimen showed the medium injected into the tumor leaking out from the 2nd portion of the duodenum. Histologically, the patient was diagnosed as SPN. Microscopic invasion to the portal vein and duodenum were also confirmed. She did not experience any postoperative complications and has remained well without any signs of recurrence during 2 years of follow-up. Although there have been 14 studies reporting ruptured SPN, this is the first report of SPN that spontaneously ruptured into the duodenum. An extremely rare case of SPN of the pancreatic head that spontaneously ruptured into the duodenum was reported.

Intraperitoneal Bladder Rupture

AbstractCircumcision is one of the most common pediatric surgical procedures performed all over the world and especially in Arab and Islamic countries. Many complications have been documented following this maneuver. We report on a rare case of intraperitoneal bladder rupture in a 7-day-old baby who was circumcised on his second day using the guillotine method. He presented to us with gangrene of the tip of the penis and a failure to void urine associated with progressive abdominal distension. Ultrasound revealed severe ascites. Aspiration and analysis confirmed the fluid to be urine. Ascending cystourethrogram was performed revealing a perforation of the posterior bladder wall near the trigone. Exploration was performed and repair done. Postoperative course was uneventful.

Paragangliomas can be found from the skull base to the sacrum. Sinonasal paragangliomas are infrequent. A 16-year-old female reported spontaneous discrete bilateral epistaxis once a month beginning when she was 3 years of age. Computed tomography showed an expansive hypervascular mass occupying the right nasal cavity and nasopharynx. Sinonasal paragangliomas usually occur in middle-aged women. Radiologic investigation is essential for the diagnosis of sinonasal paragangliomas and evaluating extension of the lesion. Endoscopic and conventional approaches are effective, and preoperative embolization is paramount for reducing bleeding risk. Histopathological features cannot differentiate benign from malignant paragangliomas, and since metastasis may eventually occur, follow-up must be carried out for a long period of time.

ABSTRACT A case of phaeochromocytoma localized in the urinary bladder wall above the right ureter in a 19 years old male is described. The patient had a sustained arterial hypertension between 170/120 and 260/170, without haematuria, with regular headache and palpitations immediately after urination. Catecholamines in urine 409 and 340 micrograms per day. A partial resection of the urinary bladder wall was performed with extirpation of a tumour weighing 40 g. Size of the tumour 80 × 60 × 60 mm. The tumour contained 1.5 mg adrenaline and 0.03 mg noradrenaline per g of tissue. Postoperatively blood pressure 140/90, catecholamines in the urine normal, and the patient made an uneventful recovery. The last follow-up ten months after operation. A short review of previously published cases is given.

Histopathological Report

Urachal cyst is an unusual clinical condition, which is usually asymptomatic. In some adult cases, it may lead to complications. The cyst is between umbilicus and urinary bladder. It is diagnosed via ultrasonography and computed tomography. However, in some cases, the diagnosis is made by means of surgical exploration and histopathological evaluation. In this paper, we report a case of a 17-year-old female presenting with painful abdominal mass. At the first evaluation, the case was diagnosed as a mesenteric cyst because the mass located in the mesentery, and final histopathological report revealed the urachal cyst.

Hemangiomas rarely occur in the retropharyngeal space with only several cases reported in the current literature. This article reports the hemangiomas of retropharyngeal space. A 55-year-old woman was referred to our institution for dysphagia. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the neck and spine revealed a large, well-circumscribed, dense mass that extended from the retropharyngeal space to the sides of the neck. Patient underwent direct excision of the lesion. Complete regression of symptoms was observed after surgery, with no lesions found on routine 24-month follow-up. Although hemangiomas are relatively common in the head and neck, those that originate in the retropharyngeal space are very rarely observed. These benign tumors have the potential to compress adjacent tissues or organs and thereby produce associated symptoms like dysphagia and dyspnea. We present the reported case of larger hemangiomas of the retropharyngeal space and detail their management.

Primary aortitis (PA) secondary to Listeria monocytogenes is extremely rare with only a few cases reported in the literature. Presently, there is no consensus concerning the best treatment when no complications are found in the thoracic computed tomography (CT) imaging. This report illustrates the clinical presentation and favorable clinical course of a rare case of PA secondary to Listeria monocytogenes in an 82-year-old diabetic woman, successfully treated with conservative management with 18 months of follow up. Included in this article, we additionally present a review of the literature of this uncommon etiology of infectious aortitis.

Anastomotic Line

Anastomotic pseudoaneurysm remains one of the main life-threatening complications of cardiac and thoracic aorta surgery. We report a rare case of infected pseudoaneurysm at the anastomotic line found during follow-up. Blood culture results suggested Enterococcus faecium infection. Transthoracic echocardiography and computed tomography scans revealed the presence of a pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta. The pseudoaneurysm was resected and the ascending aorta was reconstructed with an artificial vascular patch without complications. Reducing the anastomotic tension, with complete hemostasis at the anastomotic incision, is the most important means of preventing the formation of pseudoaneurysm.

Osteoid osteoma (OO) usually occurs in the extremities of young adults. The tumor can arise in any part of the skeletal tissue; however, it is rarely found in the rib, with limited reports to date. In this report, we present a rare case of OO arising in the rib, which was successfully treated under computed tomography guidance with minimal invasiveness. At the final follow-up after 4 years, no local recurrence was observed.
