In this article, presented as the case of a 43-year-old patient with liver cyst posing the problem of positive diagnosis. The uncharacterizable radiology and the questionable serology have demonstrated the essential role of surgery and histological analysis in the management of this type of lesion. This case raises questions that patients and clinicians are often faced with in a hydatid disease endemic country. Through this article, we aim to discussed the latest news on diagnostic tools, the natural evolution of the disease, differential diagnoses as well as new treatment options for cystic hepatic lesion.
Acute adult intestinal invagination is rare and often secondary to an organic lesion. It accounts for less than 5% of AIOs in adults. Grelic invagination on polyp is exceptional. We report a case of grelo-grelic polyp invagination in a 19-year-old male. The clinical presentation was that of an occlusive syndrome. The abdominal scanner confirmed the occlusion, specified its seat. The procedure consisted of a resection of 12 cm with the invagination collar and termino-terminal anastomosis. The anatomopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a benign tubular adenoma type tumour in low-grade dysplasia. Conclusion: Acute intestinal occlusion by grelic invagination on polyp is rarely encountered in adults. Its symptomatology is non-specific. Its diagnosis is facilitated by abdominal computed tomography. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
