Quiste broncogénico intrapancreático: a propósito de un caso / Intrapancreatic bronchogenic cyst. A case report

Los quistes broncogénicos se originan de anomalías en el desarrollo del árbol traqueobronquial durante el periodo embrionario temprano. Su localización más frecuente es el mediastino posterior. Los quistes broncogénicos de localización retroperitoneal son raros y más todavía los intrapancreáticos.Presentamos un caso de un quiste broncogénico intrapancreático asintomático en un hombre de 61 años detectado casualmente en una revisión urológica.(AU)

Bronchogenic cysts arise from abnormalities of the tracheobronchial tree occurring during the early stages of embryonal development. They are most often found in the posterior mediastinum. Retroperitoneal bronchogenic cysts are infrequent and intrapancreatic bronchogenic cysts extremely rare. We present a case of an asymptomatic, intrapancreatic bronchogenic cyst which was an incidental finding during the urological workup of a 61-year-old man.(UA)

Non-pancreatic Pseudocyst Presenting as a Giant Retroperitoneal Mass.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the non-pancreatic retroperitoneal pseudocyst in the differenctial diagnosis of retroperitoneal cystic masses. METHODS: To report a case. RESULTS: We present a case of a 50-year-old woman with symptoms of pain and a palpable abdominal mass. In imaging studies a 13-cm retroperitoneal cystic mass with left ureterohydronephrosis was observed. Surgical excision of the mass was performed with pathological diagnosis of non-pancreatic retroperitoneal pseudocyst. CONCLUSION: Non-pancreatic retroperitoneal pseudocyst is an entity with a very low incidence, benign, usually asymptomatic. It can grow compressing on adjacent structures. The definitive diagnosis is histopathological and the treatment is surgical. It's important to carry out complete exeresis to avoid recurrences.

Objetivo: Considerar el pseudoquiste retroperitonealno pancreático en el diagnóstico diferencial de masas quísticas retroperitoneales.Métodos: Presentación de un caso clínico.Resultados: Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 50años con dolor y masa abdominal palpable. En pruebasde imagen complementarias se objetiva una masa quísticaretroperitoneal de 13 cm que condiciona uréterohidronefrosis izquierda. Se realiza exéresis quirúrgica de la masa condiagnóstico anatomopatológico de pseudoquiste retroperitoneal no pancreático.Conclusión: El pseudoquiste retroperitoneal no pancreático es una entidad con una incidencia muy baja, benigna, habitualmente asintomática y que puede alcanzargran tamaño comprometiendo estructuras vecinas. El diagnóstico definitivo es anatomopatológico y el tratamiento esquirúrgico, siendo importante realizar la exéresis completapara evitar recurrencias (AU)
