Lymphoepithelial cyst in the pancreas: a case report 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A case of lymphoepithelial cyst in the pancreas was reported. A 64-year-old man without any specific complaints was found to have a cystic lesion in the anterior portion of the pancreas, as revealed by ultrasonography of the abdomen at an annual medical examination in 1988. This was dissected easily from the pancreas. Histologically, it was diagnosed to be a benign lymphoepithelial cyst in the pancreas. Cysts of this type are rare, and their histogenesis is also not well understood. 相似文献

The aim of this report is to describe the clinical and pathological features of a lympoepithelial cyst of the pancreas and to recommend fine-needle aspiration biopsy for the differential diagnosis of this lesion. A 55-year-old man was incidentally diagnosed as having a pancreatic tumor by abdominal ultrasonography. A hypoechoic cystic lesion was detected on the surface of the pancreatic body. A computed tomography revealed a cystic lesion surrounded by a smooth, flat wall. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed that the lesion was a low-intensity mass on the T1-image and a slightly high-intensity mass on the T2-image. The lesion was diagnosed as a benign cystic tumor, and enucleation of the tumor was scheduled. The fine needle aspiration biopsy was performed after laparotomy, and cytology of the contents was negative for malignant cells. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was a lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas. This cyst is an unusual but benign mass that requires minimal surgery. 相似文献

An unusual endobronchial presentation of lymphoepithelial cysts (LECs) is described in a HIV-seropositive patient. The bilateral infrahilar cysts had followed an apparently benign course for 2 years. Bronchoscopy revealed an endobronchial mass occluding the anterior basilar segment of the left lower lobe. Biopsy resulted in emptying of the cyst and showed the typical pseudostratified columnar epithelium with intraepithelial lymphocytes of an LEC. This diagnosis should be considered in patients with HIV infection and pulmonary cysts on CT. 相似文献

A case of lymphoepithelial cyst (LEC) of the pancreas is presented. A 48-year-old man complaining of general fatigue was found
to have a heterogeneous water-dense mass protruding from the surface of the pancreas on plain computed tomography (CT). Dynamic
CT disclosed septa within the mass. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a hypoiintense mass on T1-weighted imaging, and
a hyperintense mass on T2-weighted imaging. MRI with gadolinium enhancement revealed septa within the mass. Endoscopic ultrasonography
showed septa and fine echogenic structures within the cystic echoic lesion. Endoscopic retrograde pancreatecraphy showed a
normal duct system. Distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy was performed, with a suspected diagnosis of cystic neoplasms of
the pancreas. Histopathologic examination disclosed LEC of the pancreas. Our case suggests that LEC should be considered in
the differential diagnosis of cystic neoplasms of the pancreas. 相似文献

Summary
Conclusion
Lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas (LC) is a very rare benign lesion and preoperative diagnosis is difficult. Conservative
surgery seems to be the appropriate therapy in symptomatic patients or when a precise preoperative diagnosis is not achieved.
The benign behavior of all reported cases suggests that the asymptomatic patients with a certain morphological preoperative
diagnosis might be clinically followed up. The histogenesis of LC remains to be elucidated.
Background LC of the pancreas is a cyst that is histologically characterized by a fibrous tissue, a lymphoid component and a lining squamous
epithelium.
Methods Clinical and pathological findings of two personal cases are reported with review of the literature.
Results A 56-yr-old man, complaining of epigastric pain, and a 47-yr-old man, with a history of alcohol abuse, were admitted to hospital.
In both cases the lesion was detected with abdominal ultrasound but a certain diagnosis was obtained only after histological
examination of the resected cysts. 相似文献

We experienced a rare case of lymphoepithelial cyst of pancreas. The patient was a 68-year-old man in whom a cystic lesion in the pancreas was detected when he was admitted for chronic renal failure. On ultrasonography, we detected a cystic lesion, 3 cm in diameter, with a septum, in head and body of the pancreas. On both computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, the cystic lesion did not show solid components. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography showed no abnormality in the pancreatic duct and did not detect the cystic lesion. Although the lesion showed no evidence of malignancy on the images, we could not rule out malignancy, since high levels of carcinoembryonic antigen and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 were detected. We therefore performed a pancreatoduodenectomy. In the resected specimen, the lesion was a well-circumscribed and multilocular cyst that contained yellowish-white keratinous material and had no solid components. Histologically, the cyst wall was composed of mature keratinizing squamous epithelium and lymphoid tissue; it was diagnosed as a benign lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas. 相似文献

Summary Compared to pseudocyst formation after prior pancreatitis, true cysts of the pancreas are rare. Pancreatic cysts with irregular
wall components or a mucinous content raise the suspicion for the presence of a cystic neoplasm, and surgical resection is
recommended. A case of a patient with a history of prostate cancer is described in whom a cyst of the pancreatic tail was
discovered incidentally. Based on the radiographic features, which did not support the presence of a serous cystadenoma, a
spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy was performed. Histologic features were characteristic for a lymphoepithelial cyst
(LEC) of the pancreas, lined with thinned squamous epithelium surrounded by benign lymphoid tissue. Since LECs of the parotid
gland, which are associated with acquired human immunodeficiency, are frequently related to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection,
EBVin situ hybridization was performed and did not reveal evidence for EBV. Twenty-eight instances of pancreatic LECs have been reported,
primarily affecting adult males, without evidence of increased numbers of EBV-positive cells. The pathogenesis, differential
diagnosis, and clinical implications of lymphoepithelial pancreatic cysts are discussed. 相似文献

A 66-year-old woman presented with abdominal pain and weight loss. Ultrasonography and computed tomography demonstrated a cystic lesion of the pancreas. After surgical resection, the patient's symptoms disappeared. Microscopic examination of the cyst lining showed mature, keratinizing squamous epithelium, surrounded by lymphoid tissue. Only three cases of this type of lesion, called "lymphoepithelial cyst", have been described previously. Histogenesis of this particular type of cyst is not well know, but can be histologically differentiated from other pancreatic cysts. 相似文献

We recently encountered a patient with a lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas with sebaceous differentiation. We sought
to compare the characteristics of this patient with those previously reported in order to foster a keener understanding of
this rare clinical entity. After reviewing the present patient's case in detail, we conducted a comprehensive review of the
English-language literature and analyzed the clinical characteristics of reported cases of lymphoepithelial cysts. Our patient
was an asymptomatic 60-year-old man who presented with an incidental finding of a cystic lesion in the tail of the pancreas
documented by computed tomography. The cyst was enucleated, and was found to contain keratinized material. It was lined by
squamous epithelium with small sebaceous glands, and surrounded by lymphoid tissue with germinal centers. Of 33 reported cases,
only 6 (18%) contained sebaceous glands. In all patients who underwent operation, the cysts were easily resected, and the
outcome was favorable. Lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas is rare, and may be difficult to differentiate from cystic neoplasms
preoperatively. Therefore resection is indicated. The diagnosis, however, can be confirmed by careful histologic review, and
the prognosis is excellent.

Rationale:Lymphoepithelial cyst of the oral cavity is very rare. Most intraoral lymphoepithelial cysts are observed in the floor of the mouth and very few cases have been reported of its occurrence in the palatine tonsil.Patient concerns:A 37-year-old healthy woman with no remarkable medical history visited our department with a complaint of frequent tonsillitis.Interventions:On endoscopic examination, yellowish mass was observed in the palatine tonsil and removed via an intraoral approach. The mass was completely removed with the left palatine tonsil.Diagnoses & Outcomes:Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining confirmed a Lymphoepithelial cyst.Lessons:Lymphepithelial cysts of the palatine tonsils are extremely rare and are easily overlooked because there are few reported cases. Therefore, care must be taken when examining the tonsil mass. 相似文献

A 45-year-old male farmer had noticed a swelling of the left side of his hypochondrium that persisted for six months. He had no history of severe abdominal pain, jaundice, fever, or weight loss. On evaluation, the patient was found to have hydatid cyst of the pancreas. He was managed surgically. In this case report, we emphasize the preoperative diagnosis in hydatid cyst of the pancreas. 相似文献

Background: Solitary true cyst of the pancreas is rare in adults, and the differential diagnosis of cystic lesions of the pancreas is
challenging.
Aim of the Study: To describe a solitary true cyst of the pancreas in an adult and discuss the differential diagnosis.
Methods: A 50 yr old woman presented with a mass lesion in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen. Abdominal computed tomography
showed a cystic lesion, with a maximum diameter of 12 cm, between the inferior surface of the liver and the ascending colon.
The cyst was homogenous and had smooth edges. On magnetic resonance imaging, a unilocular cyst was seen that was low intensity
on T1-weighted images and very high intensity on T2-weighted images. No connection between the cyst and the pancreatic ductal
system was demonstrated on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Laparotmy was performed with a presumptive diagnosis
of cystic tumor of the pancreas.
Results: On pathologic examination, the cyst was serous and was lined with a single layer of normal cuboidal epithelium that was periodic
acid Schiff stain negative. Meticulous examination failed to identify honeycomb-like microcysts characteristic of serous cystadenoma.
The final diagnosis was a solitary true cyst of the pancreas.
Conclusion: The differential diagnosis of solitary true cyst from other cystic lesion of the pancreas usually is based on histology.
Particular care must be taken to distinguish this lesion from macrocystic serous cystadenoma. 相似文献

A new case of congenital cyst of the pancreas 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A new case of congenital cyst of the pancreas is reported. A 34-year-old woman was admitted with a painless, large, epigastric mass. Ultrasonography revealed an anechogenic retrogastric tumor. Computed tomography scan described a liquid cyst of the pancreas which was 15 cm in diameter. During surgery, a well-delimited translucent cyst was found and no local malignancy was observed. Extensive distal pancreatic resection with preservation of the spleen was performed and a thin part of cephalic pancreas was preserved. The liquid of the cyst did not contain any mucus. Microscopic study of the cyst wall described normal cuboidal cells and congenital cyst of the pancreas was diagnosed. Several diagnoses including hydatid cyst, pseudocyst and cystic tumors of the pancreas are discussed. Before surgery, lack of acute pancreatitis in recent medical history rules out pseudocyst and hydatid cyst. During the operation, if cystadenocarcinoma is easily ruled out, macrocystic serous cystadenoma is more difficult to exclude. Only histological examination of the cystic wall confirms the difference between cystadenoma and congenital cyst which remains an exceptional entity. 相似文献
