A case of Mullerian cyst arising in posterior mediastinum.
A mediastinal Mullerian cyst was initially reported as a new category of congenital cyst by Hattori, et al. in 2005. We treated a 53-year-old female referred to us with a posterior mediastinal tumor found at the Th5 prevertebral level by chest-computed tomography during a medical check-up. She had a history of mediastinal teratoma, which was removed at the age of 35. Chest magnetic resonance im...
متن کاملA ciliated cyst in the posterior mediastinum compatible with a paravertebral Mullerian cyst.
Several types of cysts in the mediastinum have been described, such as bronchogenic or thymic cysts and esophageal duplications, most of which arise in the middle or posterior mediastinum close to the tracheobronchial system or the esophagus. We present herein the rare case of a ciliated cyst anatomically distant to the genitourinary organs. An abnormal formation in the posterior mediastinum wa...
متن کاملEnteric cyst in the left posterior mediastinum mimicking a hydatid cyst on chest Computed Tomography scan.
Mediastinal enteric cysts are a rare occurrence among adults and are usually asymptomatic. In most cases they are an incidental finding in the right hemi-mediastinum and are associated with vertebral anomalies. We report the unusual case of a 23 year old male who had a mediastinal mass on chest X-ray as an incidental finding. Chest Computed Tomography (CT) scan revealed no vertebral anomalies a...
متن کاملRobot-Assisted Thoracoscopic Resection of a Posterior Mediastinal Mullerian Cyst
First described in 2005, the Mullerian derived cyst in the mediastinum is a rare finding with few subsequent reports. We report a case of Mullerian cyst occurring in the mediastinum of a 49-year-old female that was resected by robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. To our knowledge, this is the first report of robot-assisted resection of Hattori's cyst. Histopathologic analysis revealed ciliated...
متن کاملEnterogenous cyst of the mediastinum.
Enterogenous cyst of the mediastinum is not a common condition. According to Bickford (1949) 40 cases have been reported. Of these, 24 were lined by purely gastric mucosa (this includes the case reported by him), four had purely intestinal epithelium and 12 were composite. This paper is presented as a further instance of an enterogenous cyst which was removed successfully at thoracotomy. Case H...
