“…No matter which type of surgical intervention is performed, total excision should be the goal for avoiding recurrence of these cystic masses. Other treatment options including aspiration, drainage and irradiation give poor results [12,18,19,20]. Injection of OK-432 or marsupialization have also been advocated for unresectable cysts [21,22].…”

Omental cysts (OC) are rare abdominal pathology which are difficult to diagnose preoperatively. The most common presenting symptoms are abdominal distension and abdominal pain. We present a case of OC in a 3-year-old girl who presented with acute abdominal symptoms. The cyst was totally excised and histological examination revealed an OC with endothelial lining and serous fluid inside. A patient with OC in this report is presented and discussed with regard to the foregoing literature.

“…The main complication after surgical treatment is recurrence which has been reported to occur in 9.5% of patients especially when resection is incomplete [18]. Other complications include hemorrhage, torsion, infection, rupture and symptoms related to pressure effects of the cystic mass to adjacent structures.…”

International Journal of Case Reports and Images (IJCRI) is an international, peer reviewed, monthly, open access, online journal, publishing high-quality, articles in all areas of basic medical sciences and clinical specialties.Aim of IJCRI is to encourage the publication of new information by providing a platform for reporting of unique, unusual and rare cases which enhance understanding of disease process, its diagnosis, management and clinico-pathologic correlations. We present a case of a 36-week-gestational age female delivered via cesarean section secondary to developing intra-abdominal fluid on antenatal ultrasound. Subsequent imaging, exploratory laparotomy, and pathology were notable for a hemorrhagic left colonic mesenteric venolymphatic malformation with intra-abdominal fresh and coagulated blood. Conclusion: Although rare, previous cases of abdominal venolymphatic malformation have been described. This is the first reported case of spontaneous intrauterine hemorrhage requiring urgent cesarean section. IJCRI publishes Review

“…It is composed of dilated lymphatic vessels of various sizes that contain serous, serous and bloody, or chylous fluid. It has an endothelial lining with connective tissue and smooth muscle fibres like a typical lymphatic vessel [2]. These tumours are more prevalent in children, with a male preponderance.…”
