“…In this regard, we first considered bladder diverticulum, the cause of which is obstruction of the bladder outlet due to a mass or stricture [9]. Urethral diverticulum may occur in 0.6-6.0% of women [10],and the risk factors for urethral diverticulum are repeated infection of the peri-urethral glands and trauma from vaginal and urethral procedures [11]. Tail gut cysts are common benign tumors in the presacral region, although malignant transformation has been described [10].…”

Metastatic mesonephric adenocarcinoma of unknown origin after hysterectomy: A case report

Müllerian and Wolffian ducts originate from the mesodermal tissue. In females, the Müllerian ducts develop to form the fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix, and upper two-thirds of the vagina; whereas in males, they regress. The Wolffian duct, also called the mesonephric duct, regresses in females during development. Mesonephric carcinomas occur through the female genital tract, and the majority arise in the cervix of the uterus. We report the case of a patient who had abdominal pain 4 weeks prior to admission, and who underwent a hysterectomy 20 years prior. The radiologic results revealed a 6.7 × 5.4 × 4.3 cm-sized mass in the retroperitoneum but were not indicative of mesonephric adenocarcinoma. The patient underwent complete mass surgical resection, followed by posterior sectionectomy of the liver and splenectomy with cholecystectomy. The histopathologic results showed that the mass was a mesonephric adenocarcinoma.

“…The symptoms of the tumor can range from abdominal discomfort, distention, and pain to gastrointestinal symptoms. Gross examination of the tumor shows that it appears to contain solid and cystic constituents (16). A larger percentage of the tumors are usually unilocular cystic masses.…”

“…The solid components of the cyst are usually hypo-intense (low signal) on T2-weighted MR images. In cystic tumors, gadolinium-based contrast of solid components is displayed as being helpful during the diagnosis process (16). Peritoneal and ascites enhancement is essential for predicting the tumor malignancy.…”

The magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of intra-abdominal tumors is necessary for clinical practice. MR imaging involves the optimal evaluation of masses due to its inherent soft tissue contrast and multiplanar scanning abilities. T2 low-signal tumors are not common, and individuals need to be careful when interpreting them.The tumors that contain smooth muscle components, a high nucleus-to-cytoplasm ratio, or papillary architecture, among other components, tend to display low signal intensity on T2-weighted images. MR imaging allows for both the detection and characterization of tumors, especially when they have low signal intensity when presented on T2-weighted images. As a result, it becomes essential to identify the various characteristics that define each tumor.Identification of the tumor spectrum and knowing the cause of low signal intensity on T2 -weighted images helps the radiologist to narrow the differential diagnosis and reach a final diagnosis.
