While its treatment is sometimes very simple, it may become so serious as to require liver transplantation (1,2) During the planning of the treatment of liver hydatid
cysts, the location of the
cyst, its number, type, whether it exhibits symptoms or not, whether it is complicated or not, the facilities of the centre and the experience of the surgeon should be taken into consideration.
Many women may be undergoing needless and risky surgery to remove ovarian
cysts, new research suggests.
Echinococcus IgG was generally found positive in 57% pulmonary hydatid
cyst patients in our study It has been seen that
cysts rupture is the only factor that affects Echinococcus IgG positivity In addition, it is found that Echinococcus IgG positivity is very low in intact
cysts; further the number of
cysts in the lung,
cyst diameter
cyst location, extrapulmonary involvement, age, and gender do not affect Echinococcus IgG positivity.
Axial FLAIR images (Figure 4) show homogenous fluid signal suppression with absence of normal grey matter bordering the
cyst in the medial left frontal lobe.
A
cyst can form in any part of the body, including bones, organs and soft tissue.
Here, we present the results of a long-term follow-up of 22 patients with a hydatid
cyst located in the spleen after percutaneous treatment using the Ormeci technique and also review the literature.
An ovarian
cyst is a sac filled with fluid that is located in an ovary or on its surface.
One of the most common pathological lesions of the maxillofacial region is the odontogenic
cyst. These
cysts are seen most frequently in the jaws as odontogenic epithelial rests and have a very close association with the jaw bones.1 In jaws, postodontogenesis proliferation of the epithelial cells of Malassez, the reduced enamel epithelium and cell rests of Serres can give rise to odontogenic
cysts.
Dentigerous
cysts are the second most common type of odontogenic
cysts after radicular
cysts and also the most common developmental
cyst of the jaws.[1] The term dentigerous literally means 'tooth bearing.'[2] The term was coined by Paget in 1853 and arises from the crowns of impacted, embedded, or unerupted teeth.[3] Dentigerous
cysts which are associated with supernumerary teeth constitute 5%-6% and about 90% of them are dentigerous
cysts associated with maxillary mesiodens.[4]
Contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography depicted a 2.4 cm, well-defined ovoid thin-walled
cyst in the left paravertebral space adjacent to the tenth vertebra (Figure 1a, 1b).
Histopathology revealed a unilocular cystic cavity containing parathyroid cells in rare residual groups on an otherwise flat lining and in focal nests within its fibrous wall, indicative of a parathyroid
cyst (figure 2).
Proliferating epidermoid
cyst. Arch Dermatol 1966;94:11-19.
An echocardiogram revealed a normal ejection fraction (55-59%), no wall motion abnormalities, and a
cyst near the right atrium.
