“…Cutaneous ciliated cysts rarely occur in men, 10 and intestinal metaplasia has been reported in these cysts. 11 Wolffian (mesonephric) remnants arise in women due to regression defects and histologically consist of cuboidal to columnar nonciliated cells with a thin smooth muscle wall. None are reported as cutaneous cysts.…”

Enteric duplication cysts (EDCs) are rare congenital malformations consisting of double-walled cystic or tubular structures lined by gastrointestinal type epithelium. EDCs share a common muscular wall and blood supply with the adjacent duplicated bowel with very rare exceptions. The majority of EDCs are intraabdominal with cases less commonly intrathoracic or thoracoabdominal. To the best of our knowledge, we present the first reported case of primary cutaneous EDC to occur outside the abdominal and thoracic cavities. A 17-year-old male without a significant medical or surgical history underwent excision of a cystic nodule on the left hip. On histopathology, a dermal to subcuticular cyst exhibited an epithelial lining with 2 distinct components including cuboidal to columnar mucinous cells (CK7+, CK202, and CDX22) and complex glandular colonic-type mucosa (CK72, CK20+, and CDX2+). A thick muscular wall resembling muscularis mucosa and muscularis propria surrounded the cyst. Findings supported a primary cutaneous enteric duplication cyst of uncertain developmental etiology. The novel nature of this entity could represent a diagnostic challenge.

Background: Endosalpingiosis is assumed to be the second most common benign peritoneal pathology after endometriosis in women. Although recent studies indicate a significant association with gynecologic malignancies, many underlying principles remain unclear. This work aimed to systematically describe the intraoperative appearance of endosalpingiosis. Methods: Data and intraoperative videos of patients with histologically verified endosalpingiosis were retrospectively reviewed. The main outcome measures were macroscopic phenotype and anatomical distribution. Additionally, a systematic review searching PubMed (Medline) and Embase was conducted. Results: In the study population (n = 77, mean age 40.2 years (SD 16.4)), the mean size of lesions was 3.6 mm and the main visual pattern was vesicular (62%). The most frequent localization was the sacrouterine ligaments (24.7%). In the systematic review population (n = 1174 (210 included studies overall), mean age 45.7 years (SD 14.4)), there were 99 patients in 90 different studies with adequate data to assess the appearance of the lesions. The mean size of the lesions was 48.5 mm, mainly with a cystic visual pattern (49.5%). The majority of the lesions affected the ovaries (23.2%), fallopian tubes (20.4%), or lymph nodes (18.5%). Comparing this study to the literature population, the main differences concerned the size (p < 0.001) and main visual patterns (p < 0.001) of lesions. Conclusions: The usual intraoperative findings of endosalpingiosis appeared less impressive than described in the literature. In our study population, lesions of a few millimeters in size with a vesicular appearance were mostly seen, most frequently in the sacrouterine ligament area. Intraoperative recognition by the gynecologic surgeon and histologic diagnosis should play an important role in further understanding this entity, scientifically and clinically.
