RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Tubal mesosalpinx cysts are paratubal cysts, that account for approximately 10% of adnexal masses, and the presence of these cysts combined with adnexal torsion is a rare acute abdominal condition, with few cases reported in the literature. We reported two cases of adolescent tubal mesosalpinx cysts combined with adnexal torsion and reviewed the literature to help improve the diagnosis of the disease. CASE REPORTS: The first patient was an 11-year-old girl with left lower abdominal pain for 5 days and fever with nausea and vomiting for 3 days, who was found to have a cystic pelvic mass on preoperative imaging and was diagnosed intraoperatively and postoperatively on pathology as having a left tubal mesosalpinx cyst combined with adnexal torsion. The second patient was a 13-year-old girl with right lower abdominal pain for 16 h and a palpable mass in the lower and middle abdomen on examination, which was hard and tender to palpate. Preoperative imaging revealed a large cystic mass in the right adnexal region, and intraoperative and postoperative pathology revealed a right tubal mesosalpinx cyst combined with adnexal torsion. CONCLUSIONS: Tubal mesosalpinx cysts combined with adnexal torsion are rare causes of acute lower abdominal pain. Early diagnosis and timely surgery are necessary to ensure ovarian and tubal function. Accurate preoperative imaging diagnosis is challenging, and MRI is a beneficial supplement to ultrasound and CT examinations, providing more objective imaging information and reducing the incidence of adverse outcomes.

PURPOSE: Paraovarian cysts in children and adolescents can be challenging to accurately diagnose prior to surgery. Our objective is to outline the clinical characteristics of paraovarian cysts and enhance the precision of diagnosing paraovarian cysts in this age group. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed all patients with paraovarian cysts who underwent surgery in our department from 2013 to 2021. The review focused on demographic characteristics, clinical manifestations, intraoperative findings, and postoperative pathology of these patients. RESULTS: This cohort was composed of 38 children with paraovarian cysts. The average diameter of the cysts was 4.8 cm (range 0.5-10 cm). Among the cases, 25 (65.8%) had adnexal torsion. Postoperative pathology showed that all cases were simple cysts with serous fluid. After the procedure, the patients were monitored for a period ranging from 12 to 108 months. B-ultrasound and physical examination did not reveal any significant abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS: B-ultrasound can help diagnose paraovarian cysts by detecting slight deviation movement between the cyst and the uterus. The presence of adnexa torsion in children and adolescents with paraovarian cysts does not depend on BMI, but rather on the size of cysts. Laparoscopic cyst removal has proven to be an effective surgical approach with favorable outcomes.

We describe the case of a 32-year-old female who presented to the emergency department (ED) with a 3-day history of severe epigastric abdominal pain accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and constipation. Past medical history was significant for known right hydrosalpinx and previous pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), without past surgical history. Clinical examination revealed a hemodynamically stable patient with a soft but distended abdomen, tenderness in the epigastric region, without signs of peritonitis. Bloodwork including white blood cell count, electrolytes, and lactic acid was unremarkable. Initial computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen and pelvis with contrast demonstrated a small bowel obstruction (SBO) with a transition point in the right lower quadrant, accompanied by mesenteric edema and free fluid. Exploratory laparotomy was performed and revealed obstruction secondary to dense adhesions involving the terminal ileum, appendix, sigmoid colon, and right ovary. Lysis of adhesions, appendectomy, and excision of a right paratubal cyst were performed. Histopathology demonstrated endometriosis of the appendix and a benign paratubal cyst.

El quiste paraovárico se desarrolla en el ligamento ancho, entre la trompa de Falopio y el ovario. Son estructuras redondeadas de pared lisa, llenas de líquido seroso, que se ubican en el mesosálpinx, el ligamento ancho o sobre la propia trompa uterina. Tienen una incidencia aproximada de 1 en 1 500 0002 son frecuentes en la tercera y cuarta década de la vida; raramente se presentan en la edad pediátrica. Generalmente, son benignos y tiene un crecimiento lento y progresivo, suelen ser asintomáticos por lo que el diagnóstico suele ser incidental. En casos de quistes de gran volumen, los síntomas son dolor pélvico o la tumoración ab-dominal. Usualmente son diagnosticados clínicamente y se confirman por imágenes ultrasonográficas. La importancia de este caso es la poca frecuencia de estos tumores en la edad pediátrica y su identificación oportuna por parte de los profesionales de la salud
The paraovarian cyst develops in the broad ligament, between the fallopian tube and the ovary. They are rounded structures with a smooth wall, filled with serous fluid, which are located in the mesosalpinx, the broad ligament or on the uterine tube itself. They have an approximate incidence of 1 in 1,500,0002 and are common in the third and fourth decades of life; they rarely occur in childhood. Generally, they are benign and have a slow and progressive growth, they are usually asymptomatic, so the diagnosis is usually incidental. In cases of large volume cysts, the symptoms are pelvic pain or abdominal mass. They are usually diagnosed clinically and confirmed by ultrasonographic images. The importance of this case is the infrequency of these tumors in the pediatric age and their timely identification by health professionals

Paraovarian cysts constitute about 10% of all adnexal masses in females and occur most commonly in the third and fourth decades of life. These cysts are benign and usually uncommon in adolescence. Such cysts pose a diagnostic challenge while distinguishing them from ovarian cysts clinically and during radiological investigations. We report a rare case of a 13-year-old female patient with bilateral paraovarian cysts, including a giant cyst in right mesosalpinx presenting to Sohar hospital, Oman in 2018. The definitive origin of the huge mass on the right side of abdominal cavity could not be established in the current case despite contrast enhanced computerized tomography. It was only on laparoscopic exploration that this mass was identified as a giant paraovarian cyst. Both the giant cyst and a smaller paraovarian cyst on the left side were enucleated with minimally invasive surgery while preserving the fertility of the patient. Only one other similar case of bilateral paraovarian cysts in an adolescent, including a giant cyst managed with laparoscopy, has been documented previously.

As part of a retrospective data analysis over a period of 6 years, the coincidence of undescended testis and hydatid of Morgagni (appendix testis) was examined on the basis of 814 operated testes. The overall prevalence of hydatids after opening of the testicular envelope of undescended testes was 62.66%. In addition, we were able to establish a correlation between patient age and the hydatid size. According to the results of the study, the size of the hydatid-with growth most likely to be influenced by hormones-can be assumed to be associated with the patient's age.

Leiomyoma is a benign mesenchymal tumor that develops from smooth muscle cells. It can present in various histological variants. Leiomyoma with bizarre nuclei is an infrequent variant of uterine smooth muscle neoplasm. It is characterized by focally or diffusely distributed bizarre cells on the background of a typical leiomyoma. These bizarre cells are large, multinucleated, or multilobulated and have an eosinophilic cytoplasm. Even though leiomyomas with bizarre nuclei display benign clinical behavior, their differential diagnosis from leiomyosarcoma can sometimes be difficult. Leiomyoma has been described most commonly in the uterus. There is no case of leiomyoma originating from paratubal cysts described in the literature. In this article, we present a rare case of leiomyoma with bizarre nuclei originating from a paratubal cyst.

INTRODUCCIÓN: La torsión aislada de la trompa de Falopio ocurre en aproximadamente una de cada 50.000 a 1.500.000 mujeres, por ende, es una afección extremadamente rara. Fue originalmente descrita por Bland-Sutton en 1890. El cuadro clínico suele ser inespecífico y puede simular una amplia variedad de dolencias. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente de 18 años de edad que acude al servicio de urgencias por dolor abdominal intenso, la cual se decide ingresar por cuadro agudo doloroso abdominal de posible etiología ginecológica, se realiza laparoscopía de urgencia por la posibilidad de un cuadro de torsión quística, durante esta se observa una imagen laparoscópica de la trompa izquierda violácea y torcida, además un quiste paratubárico hemorrágico, de color violacio; por las características laparoscópicas de la trompa y el quiste paratubárico que se relacionan con necrosis de estos elementos, se decide realizar a la paciente una anexectomía total izquierda con cistectomía del quiste paratubárico. DISCUSIÓN: La rotación de la trompa alrededor de su pedículo vascular es el evento fisiopatológico descrito, lo que provoca inicialmente la obstrucción del retorno venoso y linfático, con el consiguiente edema, ingurgitación y trombosis. Si la torsión progresa, y no se resuelve, se ve comprometida la vascularización arterial y se desencadena la necrosis del órgano y, finalmente la instauración de peritonitis, la conducta se basa en la viabilidad de la trompa: si no tiene signos de necrosis, la conducta indicada es destorcerla, si ya aparecieron signos de necrosis deberá ser extirpada.
INTRODUCTION: Isolated torsion of the Fallopian tube occurs in approximately one in every 50,000 to 1,500,000 women, therefore, it is an extremely rare condition. It was originally described by Bland-Sutton in 1890. The clinical picture is usually nonspecific and can mimic a wide variety of ailments. CLINICAL CASE: An 18-year-old patient who came to the emergency service for intense abdominal pain, which was decided to enter due to acute abdominal pain of possible gynecological etiology, an emergency laparoscopy was performed due to the possibility of a cystic torsion condition, During this, a laparoscopic image of the violaceous and crooked left tube is observed, as well as, a hemorrhagic paratubal cyst, violet in color; Due to the laparoscopic characteristics of the tube and the paratubal cyst that are related to necrosis of these elements, it was decided to perform a total left adnexectomy with cystectomy of the paratubal cyst. DISCUSSION: Rotation of the tube around its vascular pedicle is the described pathophysiological event, which initially causes obstruction of venous and lymphatic return, with the consequent edema, engorgement and thrombosis. If the torsion progresses and does not resolve, the arterial vascularization is compromised and the necrosis of the organ is triggered and, finally, the establishment of peritonitis, the behavior is based on the viability of the tube: if there are no signs of necrosis, the indicated conduct is to untwist it, if signs of necrosis have already appeared, it must be removed.

Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome is an extremely rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder that occurs in 1/125,000 and is characterized by distinctive facial appearance, short stature, mild to severe mental retardation, and higher risk for cancer. In addition, variable organ anomalies had been reported. Paraovarian cyst causing torsion of the ipsilateral fallopian tube is less common, with an estimated incidence of 1/1,500,000, but it can adversely affect tubal function. It occurs mainly in women in the reproductive age and is very rare in prepubescent girls. Here, we described the successful treatment of an extremely rare case of paraovarian cyst causing torsion of the ipsilateral fallopian tube in a patient with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome. A 14-year-old girl with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome was referred to our hospital for abdominal pain. Her medical history was unremarkable, except for moderate hirsutism and keloid scar. Physical examination revealed tenderness in the lower abdominal midline. The preoperative diagnosis was torsion of a left ovarian cyst. An exploratory laparoscopy was performed because of acute abdominal pain and revealed a left fallopian tube that was twisted twice due to an ipsilateral paraovarian cyst. The huge paraovarian cyst required laparotomy cystectomy, and the left ovary was preserved. Her postoperative course was uncomplicated. Preoperative diagnosis of paraovarian cysts can be difficult. The moderate hirsutism seen in our patient suggested the presence of a large paraovarian cyst due to androgen receptor-mediated effects. Therefore, Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome patients with hirsutism should be screened and assessed by pediatric surgeons for the presence of paraovarian cysts.

Paratubal cysts are generally small but there are rare cases of large paratubal cyst and this case is one of them. Here we report a case of a young female with complains of abdominal fullness since 3 months. On examination, a huge mass (25 x 25 cm) extending from symphysis pubis upto xiphisternum was noted. Ultrasongraphy showed a cystic mass of 27 x 27 cm. Intraoperatively, the cyst was paratubal. It was drained with the help of veress needle and laparoscopic cystectomy was done. A large adnexal cyst extending above umbilicus is traditionally managed by laparotomy. But with the advent of laparoscopy, even a huge cyst can be managed by laparoscopy.

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between patient characteristics and risk for recurrence risk of paratubal cysts (PTC) in children and adolescents. DESIGN: Retrospective chart review at a single institution. SETTING: Single academic children's hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Pediatric patients presenting to Texas Children's Hospital between July 2007 and March 2019. Patients were identified for the study by reviewing pathology reports and were included if they met inclusion criteria of a pathologic diagnosis of a paratubal or paraovarian cyst removed during any surgical procedure between July 2007 and March 2019. INTERVENTIONS: Subjects with pathologic diagnoses of a paratubal cyst during the study period underwent chart review for the following data points: age at presentation, ethnicity, pathologic recurrence of paratubal cysts, pubertal status, body mass index (BMI), diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), size of cyst, laterality of cysts, and number of cysts. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Recurrence, Pathology types. RESULTS: Of the 627 patients that met inclusion criteria, the incidence of recurrence was 11.3%. Group 1 included those with recurrence of PTC (N = 70). Group 2 was identified as those without recurrence of PTC (N = 557). There were no differences related to age, BMI, ethnicity, history of PCOS, cyst size, laterality or number of cysts present. PTC NOS and serous PTC occurred most frequently. Of the unique cases involving recurrence, 70.1% recurred on the ipsilateral side. There were no cases of paratubal cyst malignancies in this cohort. The range of pathology diagnoses included pathologies that may occur in ovarian cysts. This is particularly interesting, given the known origins of ovarian cancer from fallopian tube transformations. Rare pathology diagnoses likely did not occur with frequency to determine definitive risks of recurrence in these cases. CONCLUSIONS: There appears to be a baseline recurrence risk for PTC, for which patients can be counseled. Recurrence does not appear to be associated with any particular pathology type, cyst size, number of cysts, BMI, PCOS, or puberty stage. Recurrence, should it occur, appears to occur more commonly on the ipsilateral side.

BACKGROUND: Paraovarian/paratubal cysts constitute 5-20% of all adnexal lesions and typically originate from the paramesonephric or Müllerian duct. The primary epithelial tumors arising from paraovarian cysts account for 25% of the cases, but giant cystadenomas of paraovarian origin are extremely uncommon during childhood and adolescence with very few cases reported in the literature. CASE: We present the case of a 15-year-old female that presented with a bulky mass in the abdomen and pelvis. An initial clinical and radiological examination indicated an ovarian cyst measuring â¼25 × 20 cm. However, explorative laparotomy revealed a giant paratubal cyst that was successfully treated with complete excision using fertility-sparing surgery. Histopathological examination was consistent with a serous cystadenoma. The postoperative course was uneventful and the girl was discharged on the seventh postoperative day. At the follow-up of 6 months, the patient was doing well.

A 30-year-old nulliparous woman was transferred under suspicion of acute appendicitis, due to the sudden onset of severe right lower quadrant pain at 31 weeks and 4 days of gestation. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a cystic mass measuring 40 mm in diameter in the right lower abdomen. Because the right ovary without edematous swelling was noted adjacent to the cystic mass, isolated tubal torsion was strongly suspected. Emergency gasless laparoendoscopic single-site surgery showed isolated torsion of the right fallopian tube with a paratubal cyst. The right ovary was not involved in this torsion. Because the color tone of the distal portion of the fallopian tube did not recover sufficiently after detorsion, right salpingectomy was performed. Postoperatively, the infusion of magnesium sulfate was initiated due to increased uterine contraction and continued until 36 weeks of gestation. At 38 weeks and 1 day of gestation, uneventful vaginal delivery yielded a healthy female infant.
