“…We report a case of chylolymphatic mesenteric cyst in an adolescent female which presented as midgut volvulus with vomiting and pain abdomen. Mesenteric cysts are a rare diagnosis in adults, and even more so in the pediatric population with a reported prevalence of 1 per 20,000 children, 25% of which are diagnosed by 10 years-of-age [1] , [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] . They are usually a result of lymphatic malformations, traumatic injuries, or local infections [7] .…”

Mesenteric cysts are rare intra-abdominal masses in the pediatric population, with the chylolymphatic variant comprising only 7.3% of all abdominal cysts. These cysts can have a varied clinical presentation, ranging from asymptomatic cystic masses to intestinal obstruction. We report a 16-year-old female, who presented with acute abdominal pain and vomiting, and was diagnosed with an intra-abdominal cystic mass with midgut volvulus accompanied by the classical “whirlpool sign” on imaging. She underwent laparoscopic abdominal exploration, which revealed a large chylolymphatic mesenteric cyst associated with feeder lymph vessels. This cyst had resulted in volvulus of the small bowel. The bowel was detorsed and found to be viable, and the cyst was removed en bloc after suction evacuation with ligation of the lymphatic feeder vessels. Midgut volvulus in the pediatric population is usually secondary to malrotation, but in this case the patient's small intestine was not found to be malrotated, and hence we present this case and urge physicians to consider a diagnosis of midgut volvulus even in the absence of malrotation in a child with a cystic abdominal mass presenting as intestinal obstruction.

Hastaların 2'si antenatal tanılıydı. Tüm hastalar ultrasonografi ile değerlendirildi. Ayrıca 9 hastaya bilgisayarlı tomografi ve/veya manyetik rezonans görüntüleme yapıldı. Cerrahi girişim olarak 14 hastada total kist eksizyonu uygulandı. Ek olarak bu hastaların 1'ine parsiyel gastrektomi,1'ine ileo-kolik rezeksiyon anastomoz, 2'sine jejunal rezeksiyon anastomoz, 4'üne ise ileal rezeksiyon anastomoz yapıldı. Kalan 3 hastaya ise fenestrasyon ve kist aspirasyonu uygulandı. Çıkarılan kistlerin histopatolojik incelemesi, lenfanjiom (n=8), mezenkimal kist (n=4), enterik kist (n=2), dermoid kist (n=1) ve psödokist (n=1) olarak sonuçlandı. Bir hastada kist duvarından örnek alınmamıştı. Takipte bir hastada rezidü kistik yapılar nedeniyle ileri tedavi gerekti. Sonuç: MK doğumsal bir anomalidir. Bununla birlikte, herhangi bir yaşta semptom verebilir. Histopatolojik olarak farklı alt gruplarda değerlendirilse de tedavisi tam cerrahi rezeksiyondur. Tutulum yerine ve derecesine göre, cerrahi rezeksiyonun kapsadığı alan değişebilir. Tam olarak rezeksiyon yapılabilen hastalarda uzun dönem takip sonuçları son derece iyidir.
