The large cyst type usually occurs in stillborn infants or newborn infants with respiratory distress. Cases of CCAM have been previously described in adulthood, more often type I with multiloculated cystic lesions. CASE PRESENTATION We repor...

Disseminated peritoneal hydatidosis is rare. Infrequently hydatid cysts can rupture into adjacent organs. We report a case of secondarily disseminated peritoneal hydatidosis with rupture into the gut presenting as hydatidorrhoea. A 26-year-old man presented with passage of white ‘grape’–like structures with stool. Ultrasonography showed disseminated hydatidosis. Magnetic resonance imaging furth...

Bronchogenic cysts are typically unilocular mucus field lesions arising from posterior membranous wall of the air way. The prenatal diagnosis usually is realized by two-dimensional ultrasound showing the large unilocular cysti...

different opinions exit in histological typing of bone cysts. epidermoid cysts are very rare as the small numbers of published cases indicate. they arises following preceding trauma exclusively in distal phalanges and skull. the roentgenogram shows a round osteolytic resion with no trabecular pattern. we observed 2 cases of epidermoid cyst of finger in imam khomeini hospital central path depart...
