METHODS: Retrospective analysis of 54 patients referred for evaluation and possible treatment of simple liver cysts (solitary and multiple) and PLD, from January 1997 to July 2006. RESULTS: Simple liver cysts were treated in 41 pts (76/) with a mean size of 12.6 cm. The most common reason for referral was abdominal pain or discomfort (85/). Percutaneous sclerotherapy was performed as initial treatment in 30 pts, showing cyst recurrence in 6 pts (20/). Surgical treatment was initially performed in 11 pts with cyst recurrence in 3 pts (27/). PLD was treated in 13 pts (24/) with a mean size of the dominant cyst of 13 cm. Percutaneous sclerotherapy for PLD was performed in 9 pts with recurrence in 7 pts (77.8/). Surgical treatment for PLD was undertaken in 4 pts (30.8/) with recurrence in all. Eventually, 2 pts with PLD in the presence of polycystic kidney disease underwent liver-and kidney transplantation because of deterioration of liver and kidney function. CONCLUSION: The majority of patients with simple liver cysts and PLD are referred for progressive abdominal pain. As initial treatment, percutaneous sclerotherapy is appropriate. Surgical deroofing is indicated in caseof cyst recurrence after percutaneous sclerotherapy. However, the results of percutaneous sclerotherapy and surgical treatment for PLD are disappointing. Partial liver resection is indicated when there is suspicion of a pre-malignant lesion.展开更多

His symptoms were present for 3 years since he first visited our hospital in 2012. Cystoscopy at our hospital revealed a simple bilateral ureterocele, and he was given an alpha blocker plus anticholinergic agent. The medication did not relieve his symptoms. Three years after his initial visit in 2012, he returned for a re-evaluation in May, 2015, because his symptoms had worsened. Computed Tomography (CT) showed normal locations of the bilateral ureteric orifices in the bladder, bilateral ureterocele with a right-sided predominance and a cobra head sign, and bilateral hydroureter. We performed a transurethral incision of his ureteroceles. Intraoperatively, we found that the ureterocele on the right ureter entered the opening and expanded at the time of urine discharge. The symptoms significantly improved after the procedure.展开更多
