Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 11

Abstract

Introduction: Paratubal cysts represent remnants of the paramesonephric or mesonephric ducts. Among the two remnants, paramesonephric duct is more common. They are generally also called as “hydatid cyst of morgagni”. Cyst is usually small, round, blind cyst attached by a pedicle to the fimbriated end of the fallopian tube. Case report: 15 year old girl presented to opd with h/o mass per abdomen, evaluation showed intra-abdominal tumor and was underwent laparotomy. Histopathology report showed Paratubal cyst. The case report here describes about the giant Paratubal cyst with review of literature. Conclusion: Paratubal cysts can become extremely big before causing symptoms. Torsion is another urgent issue regarding PTCs, necessitating urgent surgery for preservation of the ovary and the tube. Paratubal cysts are very difficult to diagnose with sonography, therefore their management should be approached as any other adnexal mass. Negative for immune-histochemistry. High index of suspicious is necessary to diagnose these cases.
