Abstract

Mesenteric cysts are seen rarely and most of
them are seen in the childhood period. The lack of characteristic clinical
features and radiological signs may present great diagnostic difficulties. The
cyst may present with diffuse abdominal swelling, abdominal pain or abdominal
mass. Malignant cysts occur in less than 2% cases. Surgery is the treatment of
choice.

Nadir Bir Akut Batın Nedeni: Mezenter Kist Torsiyonu

Abstract

Mezenter kistleri daha çok çocukluk yaş grubunda
nadir görülen kistlerdir. Kendilerine özgü klinik ve radyolojik bulguları
yoktur. Bu nedenle tanıları zordur. Genellikle karında şişkinlik, ağrı ve
karında asimetrik, simetrik büyümeye ile görülürler. Kistlerin ancak %2 sinde
malignite tespit edilir. Tedavisi cerrahidir ve kistin eksizyonunu kapsar.
