Abstract Background Concomitant cemento-osseous dysplasia (COD) and aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) are rare in the head and neck region. In our search of the English language literature, we found only one case report describing the simultaneous occurrence of COD and ABC in the head and neck region. Here, we report a case of COD associated with ABC. Further, we performed a systematic search of the literature to identify studies on patients with COD associated with nonepithelial lined cysts of the jaws. Case presentation The patient was a 32-year-old woman who was referred from a private dental clinic because of a cystic lesion below the mandibular right first molar. She had no pain or significant systemic disease. After performing panoramic radiography and cone-beam computed tomography, the imaging diagnosis was COD with a cystic lesion, such as ABC or solitary bone cyst. Excisional biopsy was performed, which revealed concomitant COD and ABC. Conclusion This case of ABC associated with COD provides insight for the diagnostic process of radiographically mixed lesions with cystic changes.

We present the case of a 63 year-old male who presented with a cystic lesion of the distal pancreas. Excision and histology showed this to be a lymphoepithelial cyst. Cystic lesions of the pancreas represent a diagnostic challenge, especially when pseudocyst secondary to pancreatitis is excluded. These lesions can be broadly classified into benign, pre-malignant and malignant. Widely used imaging modalities such as CT and MRI are not able to categorically differentiate between these. More invasive procedures such as endoscopic US and FNA again do not give a cast-iron diagnosis. Our patient had a symptomatic cystic lesion in his pancreas which was excised after cross-specialty discussion. We advocate that this is the ideal way to treat patients with cystic lesions of the pancreas, with each case considered on its own merits as all current diagnostic investigations have their limitations.

Background and Objectives: Vallecular cysts are rare and generally asymptomatic. In infants and children they present with stridor, feeding difficulties, failure to thrive. Treatment is surgical excision with cautery or laser.Presentation of Case: We discuss the clinical, radiological presentation of a 7 months old child with vallecular cyst which was surgically treated with deroofing and marsupialisation with elecrocautery. There was no recurrence even up 2 years of follow-up.Discussion: Flexible nasopharyngolaryngoscopic examination was done which showed present of swelling in the left vallecula pushing the epiglottis posteriorly and to the right with narrowed normal endolarynx. Radiological investigations with CT scan showed cystic lesion noted in left side of neck with no septation and solid component. The lesion was extending to ipsilateral vallecula and paraglottic region with narrowing of endolarynx.Conclusion: Vallecular cyst is rare cause of noisy breathing in infants and children. In adults it is usually asymptomatic. Treatment of choice is marsupialization with electrocautery or laser.

Endometriosis is defined as ectopic presence of endometrial tissue outside of uterine cavity. Superficial peritoneal endometriosis is characterized by small superficial lesions modifying from white to dark brown shades. Dimension goes from few millimetres to 3 centimetres. We report a case of a 38 years old patient who has not had a signification in gynaecological pathology until five-six months before the gynecological check, when dysmenorrhea conditions associated at depth dyspareunia arose. Clinical and ultrasound investigations showed the presence of a pelvic cystic lesion, around 5 cm in diameter, diagnosed in the first instance as endometriotic cyst of the left ovary. The cystic lesion in the pelvis was confirmed by laparoscopic inspection. Really it was a large peritoneal implant (the left ovary was perfectly normal). The pathological report confirmed that a component of the lesion had nodules of florid endometriosis. It doesn’t exist ovarian cortex, but definitely a responsive mesothelium: the examined tissue has to be diagnosed with peritoneal endometriotic implant. Conclusions We refer to a case of peritoneal endometriotic implantation that has unusual dimensions (5 cm in diameter) late-onset in a woman who has experienced a specific symptomatology only in the last 6 months before the diagnosis
