    Notes: Abstract A case of choledochal cyst (CC) antenatally diagnosed at 29 weeks' gestation is reported. Rapid enlargement of the cyst soon after delivery resulted in complete gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). The lesion was treated by external drainage as a temporary maneuver, with delayed cyst excision and hepaticoduodenostomy at the hepatic hilum performed at 81 days of age. Surgical treatment of CC in early infancy has been reported to be safe and effective. However, delayed primary excision would be an alternative procedure, especially in rare cases showing rapid enlargement resulting in GOO, since this choice has the potential advantage of allowing weight gain and improved nutritional status without risking interim complications due to the drainage procedure.

    Prenatally diagnosed cystic neuroblastoma (1999)

    Notes: Abstract An exceedingly rare case of prenatally diagnosed cystic neuroblastoma (NB) is described. Prenatal ultrasonography at 28 weeks' gestation revealed a cystic right suprarenal mass that measured 15 × 17 mm in diameter. The mass increased parallel to fetal size until it was 41 × 44 mm in diameter at 39 weeks' gestation. Magnetic resonance imaging performed prenatally and after delivery showed two different intracystic intensities with fluid levels, suggesting intracystic hemorrhage. The patient underwent a right adrenalectomy at 20 days of age, and the resected tumor was diagnosed as a poorly-differentiated ganglioneuroblastoma. Eight months after surgery, the patient is generally healthy with no evidence of recurrence. We reviewed 25 additional cases of prenatally diagnosed adrenal cystic NB and examined the clinical features of this rare entity.

    Cystic lymphangioma of the scrotum (1998)

    Notes: Abstract A 7-year-old boy who presented with a painful left hemiscrotal mass was diagnosed with acquired lymphangioma of the scrotum. Chronic friction from a cast for Perthes' disease might have been the cause of sudden enlargement of a congenital lymphangioma of the scrotum. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was useful for preoperative diagnosis and determining the extent of the scrotal lesions. Total excision of the mass leaving the overlying skin was successfully performed. The clinical significance of MRI for preoperative diagnosis and planning surgical resection of this lesion is discussed.
