ABSTRACT

The clinical presentation of enteric duplication cysts is dependent on the location of the cyst with symptoms varying from nausea and vomiting to abdominal distension, pain and perforation. Four patients were identified who were diagnosed with enteric duplication cysts within the period from 2019 to 2023. Three of the patients presented with signs of intestinal obstruction-abdominal distension and pain, while one had an antenatally detected abdominal mass. There were three boys and one girl with ages ranging from 4 months to 14 years. Three cases of ileal and one case of caecal duplication cyst were reported. Most of the cases showed ileal/caecal mucosa while one case demonstrated ectopic gastric mucosa. The treatment of these cysts includes surgical excision. Although radiological investigations help in arriving at a provisional diagnosis, the final diagnosis can be confirmed only after histopathological examination. Early treatment prevents complications and results in a good prognosis for the patient. (AU)


La presentación clínica de los quistes de duplicación entérica depende de la ubicación del quiste, y los síntomas varían desde náuseas y vómitos hasta distensión abdominal, dolor y perforación. Se identificaron cuatro pacientes que fueron diagnosticados con quistes de duplicación entérica en el período de 2019 a 2023. Tres de los pacientes presentaron signos de obstrucción intestinal (distensión abdominal y dolor), mientras que uno tenía una masa abdominal detectada prenatalmente. Eran tres niños y una niña con edades comprendidas entre 4 meses y 14 años. Se notificaron tres casos de quiste de duplicación ileal y un caso de quiste de duplicación cecal. La mayoría de los casos mostraron mucosa ileal/cecal, mientras que un caso mostró mucosa gástrica ectópica. El tratamiento de estos quistes incluye la escisión quirúrgica. Aunque las investigaciones radiológicas ayudan a llegar a un diagnóstico provisional, el diagnóstico final solo puede confirmarse después del examen histopatológico. El tratamiento precoz previene complicaciones y redunda en un buen pronóstico para el paciente. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objectives: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a minimally invasive method for sampling a heterogenous lesion. It is one of the first-line investigations in the evaluation of soft tissue tumours. However, the heterogeneity of mesenchymal lesions pose a challenge to the cytological diagnosis. The present study aims at evaluation of the cytomorphological findings of mesenchymal lesions on FNAC along with their histopathological correlation. Material and Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted over a period of 1 year from January 2021 to January 2022. All the patients of cytologically diagnosed mesenchymal lesions on their FNA aspirates were included in the study. Cytomorphology of the May Grunwald Giemsa and Papanicolaou stained slides were examined and correlated with clinical and histopathological details wherever available. Results: Out of the 90 patients, 69 (76.7%) were males and 21 (23.3%) were females. Maximum number of cases were in 4-5th decade of life. The lower limb was found to be the most common site (57.8%) for the mesenchymal lesions. Majority of the cases on FNA in our study were found to be benign - 79 (87.8%), while only 11 cases were malignant (12.2%). On cytological examination, spindle cell lesions were most common followed by adipocytic lesions. Based on the cyto-histological correlation, sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value and diagnostic accuracy of FNAC in diagnosis of mesenchymal lesion was 78.6%, 100%, 92.5%, 100% and 94.1% respectively. Conclusion: FNAC is a simple and minimally invasive tool that plays an important role in triaging patients with good specificity and sensitivity.
