Cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas is a rare benign vascular tumor. Its histogenesis is still hypothetical and its preoperative diagnosis difficult to establish. We report a case in a 26-year-old boy who presented with abdominal pain with the notion of a constipation-type transit disorder. Radiological investigations showed an intraperitoneal mesenteric cystic tumor. A complete resection of the mass was performed. Pathological examination of the operative specimen confirmed the presence of cystic formations, the wall of no need keep it.to the end which was lined by a squamous, endothelial epithelium with a fibrous wall dotted with a few lymphoid clusters in favor of cystic lymphangioma.

Gastrointestinal duplications are extremely rare congenital abnormalities having definite difficulties to be diagnosed preoperatively. Most of them are presented at the oesophagus and ileum and only involve colon from 4% to 18%. We illustrate a case report of an 18-year-old female patient with transverse colon duplication. There were symptom manifestations such as chronic constipation with flatulence accompanied with abdominal pain. We demonstrate this case report due to non-specific clinical presentation and some difficulties to form preoperative diagnosis. The patient underwent surgery. Tubular transverse colon duplication communicated with normal bowel in the proximal part was revealed. We performed transverse colon resection with duplication. The postoperative period was uneventful.

Intussusception in adults is rare, accounting for only 5% of all cases of intussusceptions and only 1% of bowel obstruction. Preoperative diagnosis is often difficult due to non specific symptoms and subacute nature. This case report was a per-operatively diagnosed adult colo-colic intussusception induced by a lipoma which mimicked a sigmoid polyp on colonoscopy. A 40-year-old Bengali woman was admitted with two weeks history of colicky lower abdominal pain. Ultrasound abdomen was unremarkable. Colonoscopy revealed a moderately enlarged sigmoid polyp at 25 cm from the anal verge. A midline incision laparotomy was performed only to reveal a colo-colic intussusception. The intussusception was reduced and the patient underwent a segmental resection of the involved bowel. Histological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of lipoma of the colon. The patient however satisfactory recovery and remains well six months after surgery. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jssmc.v5i1.16226 J Shaheed Suhrawardy Med Coll, 2013;5(1):72-74

Fibrofolliculoma is a benign tumor characterized by a smooth, dome-shaped papule of size 2–4 mm. Most fibrofolliculomas occur as multiple lesions, and very rarely, they are solitary. Herein, we report a case of solitary fibrofolliculoma found in the alar rim, without the typical characteristics of a fibrofolliculoma. A 42-year-old man visited the hospital with a protruding lesion that had occurred 1 year previously. A mass of size 5× 7 mm was observed on the left alar rim. The tumor was dome-shaped and palpable. The patient did not have any similar lesions elsewhere. No family member was known to have such a lesion. An incisional biopsy was performed before surgery, and pathological examination revealed hyperkeratosis and dyskeratosis; however, an accurate diagnosis was not made. Complete resection was planned for the mass on the alar rim. The resected mass was subjected to permanent biopsy, and the pathological examination results led to the diagnosis of fibrofolliculoma. Therefore, when diagnosing a dome-shaped mass in the alar rim, despite the suspicion of a very rare disease, it is necessary to suspect fibrofolliculoma and consider the process from diagnostic examination to treatment.

Sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelid is a relatively rare entity. A 70 year old woman presented with a left lower eyelid swelling growing over the last year. Upon examination, the external two thirds of the tarsal edge were swollen, inflamed, and bleeding on palpation. The pathological examination was in favor of a sebaceous carcinoma. The patient underwent a surgical excision and the outcome was satisfactory. The palpebral sebaceous carcinoma is variable and can mimic various benign conditions, explaining the frequent diagnostic delays. The treatment is surgical. It consists of a complete resection of the lesion associated with wide safety margins. Only an early diagnosis associated with a large surgical excision improves the prognosis.

Although foreign body (FB) ingestion is common in childhood, most cases do not have any clinical significance. Radiologic evaluation is crucial to determine the exact location of a persistent foreign body because it dictates the therapeutic approach. In this case report, we present a child with appendiceal perforation caused by a FB and emphasize pitfalls in preoperative imaging assessment. A 3-year-old boy presented with subtle abdominal pain duration for three months. The preoperative imaging examinations were consistent with an intraluminal metallic pin. However, the operative findings and postoperative pathological examination showed that the pin perforated the appendiceal wall, causing chronic inflammatory changes with an omental reaction around the extraluminal part of the pin. The patient underwent appendectomy with an uneventful course. Foreign body is a rare cause of appendiceal perforation with resultant appendicitis. Imaging may reveal some clues regarding the location, but the interpretation of radiologic data could be quite challenging.

Abstract IntroductionGallbladder carcinosarcoma [CSGB] is a rare malignant tumor characterized by malignant epithelial and mesenchymal components. Its pathogenesis is unknown and most CSGBs are associated with poor survival because the disease normally presents at an advanced stage and, therefore, curative resection is rare. Case report This report describes the case of a 66-year-old man with pain in the upper right quadrant. The preoperative diagnosis was cancer of the gallbladder [GB], and therefore, a curative radical cholecystectomy was performed. However, pathological examination of the surgical sample revealed that the tumor was made up of two histological components. The first one is the carcinomatous component and the second one corresponds to the sarcomatous component, which was compatible with a diagnosis of carcinosarcoma. ConclusionThe prognosis for CSGB remains poor despite curative resection, and therefore, the authors recommend that efforts be made to improve surgical outcomes.

A left paraduodenal hernia is a rare type of internal hernia but the most common type of peritoneal recess hernia. Preoperative diagnosis of a left paraduodenal hernia is difficult because of its nonspecific clinical manifestations, and it is often confused with other causes of acute abdomen. Diagnosis is therefore often delayed, resulting in serious clinical outcomes. We herein report a case of a large paraduodenal hernia with small intestinal obstruction and ischemia without abdominal pain. The patient was successfully discharged after emergency hernia repair. This case reveals the importance of diagnosing a left paraduodenal hernia with or without abdominal pain, especially in patients with no history of abdominal surgery.

Introduction: Mesenteric Cystic Lymphangioma (MCL) is a benign malformation of the lymphatic system. MCL seldomly occurs with a very rare incidence of around 1: 250,000. This neoplasm is more common in pediatric patients. Symptoms can appear with various clinical features ranging from asymptomatic abdominal mass to acute abdomen. Case description: Here we report a patient with MCL: that presented with bilious vomiting, abdominal pain, and abdominal mass. The patient underwent explorative laparotomy, mass excision, and  jejunal resection. Discussion: Although benign, MCL can cause other symptoms such as bleeding, torsion, or lymphangioma rupture. Therefore, MCL should be considered as one of the differential diagnoses in acute abdominal and abdominal mass cases in children. Conclusion: In conclusion, although sometimes asymptomatic and found incidentally, the MCL should be resected because it has the potential to grow and invade vital organs and cause life-threatening complications.
