Mucinous cystadenomas of the liver are rare cystic neoplasms, often mistaken for simple cysts or hydatid cysts of the liver. They are generally benign tumors, often discovered incidentally on imaging or during independent surgeries. Despite their tendency to grow slowly, mucinous cystadenomas of the liver can reach symptomatic dimensions. And given their potential for malignant transformation into mucinous cystadenocarcinomas, a misdiagnosis can have serious secondary consequences. We report the case of a 55-year-old woman with chronic right hypochondrium pain in whom a mucinous cystadenoma of the liver was accidentally discovered during surgery for hepatic hydatid cyst at the general surgery department at the ARRAZI Hospital - UHC Mohammed VI in Marrakech, Morocco.

Hepatic Hydatid

Hepatic hydatid cysts are benign cysts in the liver that are the result of parasites infection. They are caused by echinoccocus granulosis or multilocularis. They caused several symptoms like pain, obstructive jaundice, and sepsis. Hydatid cyst can be complicated to cystobiliary communication (CBC) which can be frank CBC or occult CBC. Medical, endoscopic, percutaneous and surgical treatments are different approaches to treat hydatid cyst. Here we report a case of hepatic hydatid cyst with cystobiliary communication, causing obstructive jaundice and treated with sphincterotomy and insertion of biliary stent through endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).

Hydatid disease in both chambers of the heart is very rare. Mobile right atrial and right ventricular hydatid cysts were diagnosed incidentally in the etiologic work up for a transient ischemic attack in a 77-year-old man with a history of a hepatic hydatid cyst operation. Transthoracic echocardiography was very successful in the diagnosis of both hydatid cysts. Transesophagial echocardiography and computed tomography confirmed the diagnosis. Both right atrial and right ventricular hydatid cysts were removed under cardiopulmonary bypass to prevent morbidities and potentially fatal complications.

Mucinous Cystadenomas

Pancreatic mucinous cystadenomas (MCAs) are considered to be benign tumors with a high risk of malignant progression. The pancreatic mucinous cystadenoma is considered to be a rare condition that may lead to pancreatic cancer when not surgically resected. MCAs represent 9.7% of all neoplastic pancreatic cysts. The male:female ratio of MCAs is 1:10. The condition appears mostly in women, mean age in the 5th decade. The cyst is restricted by a fibrous capsule of variable consistency and has usually no communication with the pancreatic ductal system. The MCAs are located mostly in the body or tail of the pancreas. The MCAs located in the head of the pancreas are more likely to be malignant. Complete surgical resection is the recommended therapeutic option. We present a case of a 59-year-old female patient admitted in the Departemt of Surgery and Liver Transplatation of Fundeni Clinical Institute for recurrent episodes of acute pancreatitis. After a thorough investigation was performed, the CT-examination showed a pancreatic mass, located in the tail, measuring 30/40mm. Because the CT aspect was specific for a cystic-like lesion, surgery was recommended. The patient underwent a laparoscopic caudal splenopancreatectomy with a favorable postoperative evolution. The particularity of the case comes from the patient’s clinical presentation, with recurrent acute pancreatitis and the imagistic aspect (ultrasound and CT) that initially suggested a pseudocystic-like lesion, but the elevated CA 15-3 and further elaborated examinations indicated a possible malignant lesion.

Brenner tumors are rare ovarian tumors, which are a subgroup of transitional cell tumors of ovary. Most of these tumors are benign presenting as incidental unilateral masses in postmenopausal age group. Only 5-7% cases are bilateral. These tumors are mostly small, solid and asymptomatic, seen commonly in association with mucinous cystadenomas of ovary. In such cases they may attain a massive size. Specific diagnosis of Brenner tumor is difficult using imaging studies and can be definitely diagnosed only on pathological examination. Surgical removal is usually curative for benign tumors. We present a rare case of bilateral Brenner tumor of ovary with associated unilateral mucinous cystadenoma in which bilateral Brenner tumor was a rare incidental finding on pathological examinatio

Hepatic Hydatid

Today, giant hydatid cysts are fairly rare even in endemic areas. We describe a case of an extremely large hydatid cyst of the liver that was causing massive compression of the neighboring organs, giving rise to a subocclusive syndrome of the intestine. After considering the various approaches available for the treatment of this disease, it was decided that radical surgery was still the best therapeutic choice, especially when extremely large cysts are involved. In particular, in clinical situations where it is difficult to perform radical surgical procedures, less aggressive surgery followed by drug treatment should be the treatment of choice.

We report four cases who were referred to Dr. D. Y. Patil Medical Hospital, Pune suffering from abdominal pain and gastrointestinal manifestations. The patients' history was unremarkable, except that they had contact with dogs and live in rural communities. Laboratory findings showed peripheral blood eosinophilia, leukocytosis, and elevated liver enzymes. Ultrasonography showed well-circumscribed cystic masses in the liver. Diagnosis of hydatid cysts was confirmed by computed tomography (CT). Surgical treatment was performed and all patients recovered well. The results of these cases support the nation that CT scan can led to increased clarity, regarding surgical management, because of discordance between radiographic and laboratory findings.

Study present 02 cases of large hepatic hydatid cysts which were very challenging in their management due to their site, the approach taken during surgery and the close proximity to very vital structures. Hydatid cyst as a disease has remained a considerable potential of upsurge and re-emergence in humans. These patients presented with right upper abdominal pain for a prolonged duration. They were diagnosed as hepatic hydatid cysts after investigations. They underwent subtotal cystectomy with omentoplasty with excellent result without any recurrence and a high level of patient satisfaction.

Background: Cyst-biliary communication with hepatic hydatid cyst disease is responsible for postoperative bile leakage after surgical management. This study aims to detect various predictors of cyst-biliary communication and their predictive accuracy.Methods: This study was done in the patients of hydatid cysts who underwent surgical management for hydatid disease of the liver. Various factors were studied and their accuracy for preoperative prediction of cyst-biliary communication analyzed.Results: There were 38 (22 males, 16 females) patients with hepatic hydatid cysts with a mean age of 38.7±15.4 years. Cyst-biliary communications were detected in 12 patients (31.6%). Independent strong predictors were tenderness in right hypochondrium (p=0.035), total leucocyte count (TLC)>12,000/mm3 (p=0.0017),  eosinophil count >5 × 108/l (p=0.0086), red blood cell distribution width (RDW) >15% (p=0.014), segment IV,V,VII involvement and cyst size >10 cms (p=0.01) on multivariate analysis.Conclusions: Cyst-biliary communication is more common in patients presenting with tenderness in right hypochondrium, large cyst size, location in the central segments of liver close to biliary confluence, and with high values of TLC, Eosinophil count and RDW. The predictors demonstrated in this study should allow the likelihood of cyst-biliary communication to be determined preoperatively and, thus, indicate the need for additional procedures during operations to prevent the complications of biliary leakage.

Abstract Hydatid cysts, which are endemic to certain areas, typically are found in the liver. Spontaneous intraperitoneal rupture, which can be life threatening, is rare. This article presents a case of spontaneous rupture of a hydatid cyst in a 69-year-old woman who was admitted to the emergency department. The patient had no history of trauma. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography suggested rupture of a hydatid cyst. The patient underwent a partial cystectomy, and the cystic area was washed with hypertonic saline and the peritoneal cavity was washed with isotonic saline and drained. Postoperatively, the patient was treated with albendazole for 3 months. No additional pathology was observed at the 3-, 6-, and 9-month follow-ups. Although rare, a ruptured hydatid cyst should be considered in the differential diagnosis of the acute abdomen in a patient residing in an endemic area.
