Prenatal diagnosis of Enteric Duplication Cyst of the tongue
Prenatal diagnosis, 2004Co-Authors: Thierry Rousseau, Stéphanie Couvreur, Eve Senet-lacombe, Christine Durand, Eve Justrabo, Gabriel Malka, Paul SagotAbstract:Cysts located on the tongue are rare and usually diagnosed in childhood. Here we report on the prenatal diagnosis of an unusual Cystic malformation of the tongue with heterotopic intestinal tissue explored by prenatal ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging and on its surgical treatment and histological examination. The prenatal differential diagnoses as well as perinatal management of Cystic lesions of the tongue are reviewed.

Perinatal management of Enteric Duplication Cysts of the tongue.
American journal of perinatology, 1997Co-Authors: Mike K. Chen, Eitan Gross, Thom E LobeAbstract:Intra-oral Enteric Duplication Cysts are rare. We recently treated two infants with prenatally diagnosed large sublingual Enteric Duplication Cysts. Antenatal aspiration of the Cyst was attempted in one infant without success. Because of the potential for airway obstruction and respiratory distress at delivery, preparation for an immediate tracheostomy was made in case oral intubation was impossible. Fortunately, aspiration of the Cyst provided adequate access to the oropharynx for intubation in both infants. The placental cord was not divided until the airway was secured to minimize the potential for anoxic injury. Complete excision of the Cyst was subsequently done in one patient. The other infant had an initial marsupialization and laser ablation of the Cyst mucosa but the Cyst recurred. Cyst excision at 9 months of age resolved the problem. Pathological examination revealed columnar-lined mucosa consistent with Enteric Duplication Cysts. An Enteric Duplication Cyst may present as a large sublingual mass with potential for airway obstruction in the newborn infant. Antenatal diagnosis allows for the proper preparation of personnel and equipment in the management of these neonates during delivery. If the airway is compromised, aspiration of the Cyst can be done to improve the access to the oropharynx for intubation. Preparation for emergent tracheostomy should be done before delivery in case oral intubation is not possible. Subsequent complete Cyst excision is the treatment of choice.

A Rare Case of Retroperitoneal Isolated Enteric Duplication Cyst with Malignant Transformation
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2020Co-Authors: Mohamed Alhamar, B Alkamachi, H Jaratli, R ShahAbstract:Abstract Introduction/Objective Isolated Enteric Duplication Cysts (IEDC) are rare congenital abnormalities that do not have a communication with the normal intestinal lumen. They are usually recognized before the age of 2 years. They are rarely encountered in adults and very seldom undergo malignant change. These Cysts are predominantly located within the abdominal cavity. They histologically demonstrate gastrointestinal mucosal lining and smooth muscle in the wall. Methods We report a case of a 45-year-old African American female who was evaluated for a pain in the left-sided abdomen and pelvis. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large multilocular Cystic retroperitoneal mass, extending into the left iliac fossa and anteriorly displacing the colon. No other mass lesion was radiologically identified. The main radiologic impression was sarcoma. A biopsy was performed, and a pathologic diagnosis of adenocarcinoma was established with a consideration of primary retroperitoneal mucinous Cystadenocarcinoma. An en bloc surgical resection of the retroperitoneal mass with adjacent segment of the descending colon was accomplished. Gross examination revealed an 11 x 5 x 4 cm Cystic mass, containing a necrotic fluid and adherent to a 4 cm long segment of descending colon. Microscopically, the mass was lined by neoplastic cells arranged into tubules, villi and glands. Areas of necrosis were present. The wall of the Cystic mass showed extensive hyalinized fibrosis and focal invasion. The neoplastic cells had positive immunoreactivity for CK7, CK20 and CDX2, but were negative for PAX8, PR and ER. Desmin immunostain and trichrome special stain highlighted a focus of smooth muscle bundle within the wall of the mass. These findings led to the pathologic diagnosis of adenocarcinoma arising in retroperitoneal IEDC. Conclusion In conclusion, we present this case because of its unusual presentation and location. Recognition of this entity and its rare malignant potential is important as it can pose a diagnostic challenge to pathologists.
