Mesenteric Cysts Diagnosis Management And Surgical Excision
The Diagnosis And Treatment Of A Symptomatic Mesenteric Cyst Bmj Case Minimally invasive surgery is the surgical approach of choice. a complete laparoscopic excision of mesenteric and omental cysts is generally feasible. mesenteric cyst diagnosis pose a challenge as there are no pathognomonic signs and these may mimic pathologies such as cystic lymphangioma and gastrointestinal duplications. Enucleation is the surgical treatment of choice for mesenteric cysts as it avoids the need to divide mesenteric blood vessels, which in turn would necessitate bowel resection. intestinal resection occurs in approximately 30% of adults but is as high as 60% in children with mesenteric cysts (falidas et al. 2011 ).
Laparoscopic Management Of Acutely Symptomatic Chylous Mesenteric Cyst The classical sign of tillaux, 'mobility of mesenteric cysts in transverse plane, and not in longitudinal plane', was described by the french surgeon, who first performed surgical resection in 1880.[6,7] the optimal treatment ranges from simple excision of cyst to massive resection of the adjoining intestine.[4,8] the rarity of these anomalies. Literature review of pubmed included all the published cases series and literature review on the topic. results: this retrospective study included 4 cases of mesenteric cyst and 1 case of omental cyst. the ages of the patients ranged from 29 to 50 and they were all females. all 5 patients were further assessed with ct, mri and a pet ct in one. Laparoscopic surgical excision of the cyst was performed in 3 (19%) patients, laparotomy in 12 (75%), and 1 patient refused surgery. the size of the cyst ranged from 4 to 29 cm. the cyst originated from the retroperitoneum in five patients, the sigmoid mesocolon in four patients, and small bowel mesentery in four patients. The diagnosis and treatment of mesenteric cysts is challenging due to rarity, lack of specific symptoms and variability in location and size. this report aims to discuss current diagnostic and treatment strategies. a 35 year old woman presented with non specific abdominal pain. ct revealed a 5×5×3 cm septated abdominal cyst (figure 1). aspiration (figure 1) demonstrated no malignant cells.

Mesenteric cysts are rare entities that can be discovered incidentally, present symptomatically, or present acutely. if the presentation is subacute, imaging can be utilized to classify the cyst type and plan for treatment. cysts are generally excised in fit patients to prevent the development of cyst related symptoms or malignant transformation. Results: there were 13 patients with mesenteric cyst, 5 girls and 8 boys. the ages ranged from neonate to 8 years. abdominal mass and pain was the main presenting sympto ms. prenatal diagnosis.
