Gallbladder

412
The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ that plays a crucial role in our digestive system. Measuring about 10 cm in length, it is comparable in size to a kiwi fruit and is located in a hollow area on the lower surface of the liver. The gallbladder's primary function is to store and concentrate bile, a fluid produced by the liver that aids in digestion.
The gallbladder's anatomy consists of three regions: the fundus, body, and neck. Extending from the neck, the cystic duct joins...

Appendicitis-I: Introduction

91
The appendix, a small, narrow, blind tube extending from the inferior part of the cecum, is widely regarded as a vestigial organ, having lost much of its original function through evolution. Despite its diminished role, the appendix can become inflamed, a condition known as appendicitis.
Etiology: Appendicitis can arise from various causes, primarily rooted in the obstruction of the appendix lumen. Factors contributing to this obstruction include fecal accumulation, lymphoid hyperplasia and, in...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Mesenteric cysts (MCs) are rare abdominal pathologies. Surgical enucleation is often successful, with most patients experiencing no long-term recurrences after treatment for these non-specific abdominal conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Abdominal Surgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Mesenteric cysts (MCs) are rare abdominal pathologies with low incidence.
  • Fewer than 1000 cases of MCs have been documented in medical literature.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To characterize the clinical manifestations of MCs.
  • To identify diagnostic methods for MCs.
  • To evaluate treatment outcomes for MCs.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective analysis of 17 patients with MCs between 2001 and 2017.
  • Diagnostic imaging included ultrasound (n=17), CT (n=15), and MRI (n=1).
  • Surgical intervention via laparotomy was performed for all patients.

Main Results:

  • The majority of patients were women (82.4%) with a mean age of 43.4 years.
  • Common symptoms included abdominal pain (52.9%) and palpable abdominal masses (76%).
  • MCs were more frequent in the large bowel mesentery (82.4%) than the small bowel.
  • Histopathology revealed simple mesothelial cysts (47.1%), simple lymphatic cysts (41.2%), and lymphangiomas (11.7%).

Conclusions:

  • Mesenteric cysts are rare and present with non-specific symptoms.
  • Diagnosis is often confirmed during surgery.
  • Enucleation is typically successful, with a low rate of recurrence.
