Background: Retroperitoneal cystic lesions (RCLs) are uncommon clinical findings that arise within the retroperitoneal compartments and account for various etiologies. They can be benign or malignant in nature and may present with different manifestations. Case report: A 55-year-old woman presented with nonspecific right sided abdominal pain. Ultrasound detected a large cyst in the right retroperitoneal region, computed tomography revealed a large well-defined cystic lesion measuring 13 X 9 X 6 cm in the right posterior peritoneum extending from the subhepatic area to the right pelvis. Laparoscopic complete resection performed with uneventful perioperative course. Histopathologic findings were suggestive of mucinous cystadenoma. Conclusion: Primary Retroperitoneal Mucinous Cystadenoma (PRMC) is an extremely rare pathology that can pose some challenge for clinicians. Awareness of this entity can help us in establishing the diagnosis and provide an optimal management. Although laparotomy is considered the standard approach of huge mucinous cystadenomas; laparoscopic surgery can be a safe and adequate therapeutic option.

Primary Retroperitoneal

Introduction: Primary retroperitoneal mucinous cystadenoma (PRMC) and its malignant variant – cystadenocarcinoma are extremely rare tumors known only from case studies and reviews. PRMC is a cystic tumor of the retroperitoneum, which remains asymptomatic for a long time and can reach significant proportions. It occurs mainly in women. Case report: We present the case of a 38-year-old healthy woman with diagnosed resistance in the right mesogastrium during a c-section. The delivery was terminated without a surgical intervention. The above mentioned resistance was examined further by ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. All imaging examinations showed a solid – cystic bilocular expansion, which looked like a mesenteric cyst in the right paracolic area. The patient was asymptomatic at all times, with only a palpable resistance of the abdominal wall. In November 2020, the patient underwent an elective surgery – extirpation of the cystic tumor and prophylactic appendectomy. The operation was performed classically, via midline laparotomy without perioperative perforation of the cystic tumor and without complications in the postoperative period. The histopathological examination showed a malignant variant of PRMC. So far, the patient remains free of any problems and is followed at the department of oncology. Conclusion: The goal of treatment is to achieve complete surgical removal of the tumor without its perioperative perforation. Due to the rare occurrence of the disease, there are no guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of PRMC. Precisely because PRMC is a rare tumor, it should be part of the differential diagnosis of cystic tumors of the retroperitoneum, especially when young women are concerned.

Background: PRMC is a very rare benign tumor of the abdominal cavity that usually occurs in women, and PRMC demonstrate no specific findings on CT. There are many reports on the differential diagnosis and discussion of PRMC imaging, but there are few reports on the treatment of dedifferentiated PRMC using laparoscopic resection and postoperative follow-up.

Background: Angioma serpiginosum is a vascular anomaly that classically presents in childhood and predominantly affects females. Objective: To present a case of a young woman with linear distribution of angioma serpiginosum and review the common clinical characteristics and presentation of this condition. Methods: Case report with skin biopsies and dermoscopic findings. Results: A clinical examination revealed numerous irregular punctate red macules in a linear distribution over the right arm. On dermoscopy, the lesions appeared as multiple sharply demarcated red lagoons. The histopathologic findings of dilated blood vessels in the papillary dermis with absence of other changes confirmed the diagnosis of angioma serpiginosum. Conclusion: Angioma serpiginosum is a rare entity that can be distinguished by clinical and histopathologic examinations. Lack of recognition of this condition may lead to unnecessary investigations and delayed treatment.

Primary retroperitoneal mucinous cystadenomas (PRMCs) are observed more frequently in women with no specific symptoms. A 35 Years old female patient presented with Intermittent abdominal pain in her left flank associated with fullness in abdomen. CECT confirmed a well-defined smoothly marginated homogenous non-enhancing unilocular cystic lesion in retroperitoneum in left lumbar region, separated from the pancreas, left kidney and ovary. On Laprotomy, the retroperitoneal tumor was completely removed, without spillage of its contents.

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.

Primary Retroperitoneal

Primary retroperitoneal mucinous cystic neoplasms are very rare, especially in men. To our knowledge, only 13 cases of such neoplasms have been reported in men to date. The most common type is the primary retroperitoneal mucinous cystadenoma, which almost invariably affects females. Most patients present with non-specific symptoms. In this case report, we will describe a case of a 53 year old male patient who presented with raised CEA tumour marker and vague right sided abdominal discomfort. A computed tomography (CT) scan was performed, which revealed a 4.9 × 4.7 × 7.5 cm lobulated retroperitoneal cystic lesion abutting the posterior wall of the mid ascending colon. A laparoscopic excision was eventually performed with complete removal of the retroperitoneal cystic lesion. Subsequent histological assessment confirmed the diagnosis of a primary retroperitoneal mucinous cystadenoma with borderline malignancy. On comparison with a prior CT scan performed about seven and a half years earlier, we managed to derive a doubling rate of about 626 days, which is the first reported case in English literature to document the growth rate of such a tumour. The patient has since been discharged well, with no evidence of tumour recurrence on an interval CT scan.

Ovarian tumors are commonly seen in adults and rare in children. Incidence in children is about 2.6 cases per 1,00,000 girls. Most common ovarian mass in children is benign functional cyst. Epithelial tumors account for 8-10% of ovarian tumors. Most common epithelial tumor is Cystadenoma. Mucinous cystadenoma occurs in 3rd -6th decade of life. We report a 10-year-old Premenarchal girl presenting with abdominal distension and discomfort. On examination the entire abdomen was occupied by a firm mass. CT imaging showed a large multiloculated cystic lesion arising from the right ovary. The child underwent right salphingo-oophrectomy. The biopsy of mass was suggestive of benign mucinous cystadenoma. The child is on regular follow up. At 1 year follow up child is doing well.
