Lee, Choi, Hong, Koo, Kim, Kwon, Choi, and Shim: Cystic Lesions in the Stomach

Abstract

Cystic lesions of the stomach are rare and usually detected incidentally during surgery or autopsy. Amongseven cases of cystic masses, duplication cysts accounted for four, retension cysts of ectopic pancreas for two,and cystic lymphangioma remaining one. In the upper gastrointestinal series, all were submucosally, whileendoscopic ultrasonography showed that the location of cystic masses was also submucosal. Except for two cases ofduplication cyst and cystic lymphangioma which were thin-walled, lesions were well-defined and showed lowattenuation. In addition, abdominal CT scanning showed two cases of retension cyst of ectopic pancreas.
