We reported the first case of testicular enterogenous cyst in a 55-year-old white male presented with testicular pain and a gradually enlarging left scrotal mass with a 2-week duration.

We report the case of a 78-year-old Philipino female who was found to have a large right fronto-parietal mass after a minor fall. She had a small amount of hemorrhage within the cyst but was stable for discharge the following day. She was readmitted 5 days later with acute onset severe headache and leftside weakness. On repeat imaging, her cyst had grown in size and had large acute hemorrhage within it. She was taken to the operating room for craniotomy and cyst resection. She recovered well post-operatively. This is the first known case of a giant supratentorial enterogenous cyst presenting with symptomatic enlargement due to large hemorrhage within the cyst. Enterogenous cysts should be considered on the differential diagnosis of hemorrhagic supratentorial giant cysts.展开更多

Clinical Presentation/Methods: We report the case of a 40-year-old male who had a prior transmastoid craniotomy at an outside facility 14 months prior with an indeterminate diagnosis, who presented to the University of New Mexico with recurrent headaches and nausea. Scans demonstrated a giant multiloculated cystic lesion in the right cerebellopontine angle that extended superiorly and inferiorly with brainstem compression and hydrocephalus. Intervention/Results: We took the patient to the operating room for a retrosigmoid suboccipital craniectomy for tumor resection. Post-operatively, the patient improved but required ventriculoperitoneal shunting for continued communicating hydrocephalus. Conclusion: This is the first known case of a giant multiloculated grape-like enterogenous cyst extending simultaneously from the upper cervical canal to the ambient cistern. Enterogenous cysts should be considered on the differential diagnosis of giant grape-like lesions extending from the cervical canal to the prepontine cistern.展开更多

In the treated groups, the rats were treat ed with different doses of DCQG, cefaclor and DCQG plus cefaclor respectively, starting from 3 days before to 1 day after modeling. Endotoxin levels in plasma, urine and stool were determined and compared. Results: Except for the cefaclor group, the plasma and urine endotoxin levels in the treated groups were lower significantly ( P <0.0 5), while the endotoxin level in stool was obviously higher than that in the unt reated model group.Conclusion:DCQG has the intestinal barrier protective e ffect including anti-bacteria, anti-inflammation and clearing endotoxin.展开更多
