Authors recently experienced a case of traumatic pulmonary pseudocyst in 4 year-old girl. Traumatic pulmonary cyst is a rare complication of blunt thoracic trauma, simulating surgical conditions such as lung abscess, localized empyema, or congenital bronchogenic cyst. Unless infection is supervened, surgery is not indicated because of its spontaneous regression. In this article, authors present the case and review the traumatic pulmonary pseudocyst with related articles.

Background: A pancreatic pseudocyst is one of various complications occurring in acute or chronic pancreatitis. It is usually located in the retroperitoneal space near the pancreas. However, other unusual locations are also possible. Jones initially described the mediastinal pseudocyst in 1940. Since then, fewer than 50 cases have been reported. A diagnosis of a mediastinal pseudocyst is accomplished by imaging studies revealing the cystic nature of the mass with evidences of acute or chronic pancreatitis. There is some controversy regarding the appropriate management of mediastinal pseudocyst because of the high mortality and morbidity after surgical management. Here we report a case of a mediastinal pancreatic pseudocyst found in a patient with asymptomatic alcohol-related pancreatitis complicated by the development of a mediastinal pseudocyst, which quickly resolved after endoscopic retrograde pancreatic and biliary drainage and subcutaneous injection of a somatostatin analog(octreotide acetate) without any complications.

Acromio-clavicular (AC) joint cyst have been reported in small series of the orthopedics literature in association with extensive rotator cuff tear, pseudotumor, infection of the shoulder or chondrocalcinosis. Authors experienced one case of AC joint cyst with rotator cuff re-tear after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, clinicians may need pay attention to AC joint bulging or mass lesion after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair as an important sign to check follow-up imaging study for the cuff integrity. Especially, ultrasonography is recommended for this follow up study, because it is simple to be operated, economic, easily accessible.

Mucoceles and Ranulas are mucous retention phenomena, ie, they develop from the extravasation or retention of mucous after trauma to the sublingual gland or one of the minor salivary glands. Mucoceles are chronic in nature, and local surgical excision is necessary. To minimize the chance for recurrence, the underlying feeder glands should be removed in continuity with the mucocele. Ranula is a term used for mucoceles that occur in the floor of the mouth Treatment consists of marsupialization and/or removal of the feeding sublingual gland. Marsupialization entails removal of the roof of the intraoral lesion. However this procedure is often unsuccessful. Some prefer initially to excise the entire sublingual gland. This case report presents two cases. one case was developed on lower lip and treated by marsupialization. There was no recurrence during follow up period.

A pancreatic pseudocyst is the most common cystic lesion in the pancreas. There are several treatment methods with variable results. Recently, conservative treatment has been preferred because it has fewer complications. In this case, a 37-year-old male patient had pancreatic pseudocysts with upper abdominal pain, left upper back pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and general weakness. We prescribed him Banchongsangamibang (蟠蔥散加味方). For about 1 year, he was treated with oriental medicine. All of his pancreatic pseudocysts disappeared on abdominal CT follow-up and the symptoms mostly subsided. There had been no recurrence of pancreatic pseudocysts on abdominal CT follow-up after 1 year.

We have treated a case of pseudocyst of transverse mesocolon in 3-year-old male child. Operative findings demonstrated that the pseudocyst originated in the transverse mesocolon, and was not connected to the pancreas. A colonic duplication was found incidentally near the pseudocyst. On microscopic examination, ectopic pancreatic tissue was noted in the transverse mesocolon. This pseudocyst was thought to have originated from the ectopic pancreas of the transverse mesocolon. This is the first reported case of pseudocyst originated from ectopic pancreas of the transverse mesocolon, combined with a colonic duplication. The pathogenesis is discussed.

Iatrogenic femoral artery pseudoaneurysm is a complication in patients undergoing catheterization. The risk increased when large-bore sheaths, concomitant anticoagulation therapy, and antiplatelet therapy are used during the intervention. Ultrasound-guided thrombin injection has become the treatment of choice. Rapid expansion, rupture, infection, and mass effect resulting in distal or cutaneous ischaemia or peripheral neuropathy, as well as failure of other treatment options are all indications for surgery. We report a 48-year-old man who developed hemorrhagic shock due to femoral pseudoaneurysm rupture after coronary angiography, and successfully treated by ultrasound-guided thrombin injection.

Auricular endochondral pseudocyst is a very rare, benign intracartilaginous cystic lesion which most commonly presents as a cystic mass in the anterior plane of the auricle. We present a case report of a 48-year-old man with a fluctuating lesion of 3 week's duration on the left auricle, with no specific history of trauma or disease. Initial incisional drainage revealed an abundance of serous fluid, which quickly recurred. Surgical removal of the hypertrophic perichondrium forming the pseudocyst anterior wall and ear cartilage curettage was carried out with intraoperative absolute alcohol sclerotherapy, followed by compression dressings. The auricle healed uneventfully, with a good final cosmetic result and no recurrence within a 6-month follow-up period. We report this unusual case as the first in Korean plastic surgery with a review of the literature.

낭은 상피세포로 싸여있는 병적인 공간으로 내부가 액체나 반액체로 채워져 있다. 악골에서 낭은 다른 골 부위에서보다 더 흔하게 발생하는데 이는 대부분의 낭이 치아 형성 후에 악골에 남아있는 치성잔류물로부터 발생하는 경우가 많기 때문이다. 구강악안면부에서 발생하는 낭은 연조직에서 발생할 수도 있지만 대부분 골내에서 발생하고, 법랑질 상피나 치배와 관련해 악골내에 발생하는 치낭성이다. 치낭성은 WHO분류에서 발생근원에 따라 크게 염증성과 발육성 기원의 두 가지 군으로 분류되고, 발육성 낭은 치성과 비치성으로 세분할 수 있다. 악골에 발생하는 낭은 대부분이 치낭성이며 가장 흔한 악골 낭종은 치근단낭으로 염증성이고, 발육성인 함치성낭과 치성각화낭도 다음으로 발생률이 높은 편이다. 소아환자에서 함치성낭과 치성각화낭의 발병률이 성인보다 더 높았다. 비치성낭 중에서 비구개관낭이 가장 많이 발생하며, 연조직에서 발생하는 낭과 상피세포 경계가 없는 낭성 병소인 가성낭(pseudocyst)은 드물게 관찰된다. WHO에서 치성각화낭과 서회화치성낭은 파괴적 성장을 하고 재발 경향이 높으므로 양성 낭성 종양으로 재분류하고 있다.

Taumatic pulmonary pseudocyst is a rare complication of chest bunt trauma. Recently, we experienced a case of traumatic pulmonary pseudocyst in right lower lobe. The patient`s anterior chest was directly strucken by steering wheel and his car was intervened between two cars. He complained of both chest pain and dyspnea. He was diagnosed as multiple rib fractures with pulmonary contusion, initially. And then the right pulmonary lesion changed to traumatic pulmonary pseudocyst in 10 days after trauma. He was treated sucessfully with conservative management. In this article, we present the case and review the traumatic pulmonary pseudocyst with related articles.
