postoperative intussusception in adults is an extremely rare clinical entity. postoperative intussusception caused by a jejunal peritoneal cyst is even rarer. etiopathogenesis of this clinical condition is not well understood. in the given case it seems to be a complication of prolonged contact of a draining tube with bowel. we present a case of postoperative spontaneous intussusception in a 72...

A mediastinal enteric cyst is an uncommon entity which is rare in adults and usually found incidentally. In most cases the lesion is lined by gastrointestinal mucosa, and theories as to the origin of such lesions are diverse. We report an adult case of thoracic enteric cyst that presented with cardiac tamponade and for which histopathological examination revealed the presence of pancreatic tiss...

Enteric duplication cysts are rare congenital anomalies that are prenatally diagnosed through antenatal ultrasonography (US). In female patients, however, attention must be paid since these formations might be confused with ovarian cysts. Herein, we present a case of a low birth weight female infant with an enteric duplication cyst. A cystic lesion was detected in the right abdomen of the fetus...

Pancreatic cysts include inflammatory pseudocysts, cystic tumors (serous and mucinous), and various rare cystic lesions. We report a case of a ciliated enteric duplication cyst that presented on computed tomographic scan as a pancreatic cystic neoplasm. Cyst fluid analysis revealed markedly increased concentrations of carcinoembryonic antigen and CA 125 and increased fluid viscosity. These feat...

INTRODUCTION Enteric duplication cysts presenting in adulthood are rare. Isolated enteric duplication cysts, which lack a connection to the GI tract or the adjacent mesenteric vasculature, have only been cited in six previous case reports. CASE PRESENTATION A 48-year-old female presented with a four-year history of intermittent nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) sca...

We herein demonstrate a case of a gastric-type duplication cyst of the pancreas with a bifid tail in a 1year-old girl, who presented as relapsing pancreatitis with pseudocyst formation. We reviewed the literature concerning pancreatic enteric duplication cysts with and without pancreatitis to search for causes of pancreatitis. The following new information was obtained: 1) The presence of a com...

An enteric duplication cyst presenting as enterocolic intussusception is an exceptional clinical entity. We herein report a rare case of an ileal duplication cyst that manifested as an ileocolic intussusception. A 19-year-old woman was hospitalized due to right upper quadrant pain. Colonoscopy revealed a polypoid mass protruding into the colonic lumen. Ultrasonography demonstrated intussuscepti...

We report an extremely rare case of isolated enteric cyst in the neck region which was diagnosed on the histopathological examination. It was suspected to be duplication cyst on radiology. We have also evaluated the differential diagnosis and management issues.
