Paraurethral cyst is a benign cystic disorder of anterior vaginal wall. Many secondary complications have been described in literature, but stone formation in the cyst is a rare phenomenon. We are reporting a case of a 35-year-old multiparous woman who presented with lower urinary tract symptoms, dysuria, and dyspareunia. She was diagnosed as a case of the paraurethral cyst with stones and was managed successfully. Various differential diagnoses have been suggested, most important being urethral diverticulum, ruled out by urethroscopy. Many imaging modalities have been described, but physical examination plays the key role in reaching the diagnosis of stone. For definitive management incision over the cyst with stone removal followed by marsupialization is performed to prevent recurrence.
The glandular odontogenic cyst (GOC) is a rare cyst that was rst described in 1988 as a distinct entity. This lesion can occur in either jaw and is a rare developmental odontogenic cyst that resembles several other odontogenic lesions. However, GOCs have non-specic clinical and radiographic ndings, and diagnosing them can be very difcult given their rarity. Furthermore, GOCs may be difcult to diagnose because they have overlapping histologic features with other intraosseous lesions, such as the lateral periodontal cyst and its botryoid variant, and the dentigerous cyst with metaplastic changes. In this study, we report a new case of GOC in a 42-year-old female patient and review previous cases reported in the literature. We discuss the different kinds of features which will help a clinician distinguish GOC from other lesions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
