[4] Very rarely a cyst may be so large that it prevents a clinician from performing a pap smear, in which case the clinician may puncture the cyst with a needle and drain it. [4]
Cerebroretinal microangiopathy with calcifications and cysts (CRMCC) is a rare genetic disorder, which affects multiple organs.

Jaffé and Lichtenstein first coined the term "aneurismal cyst" in 1942 [11] In 1950 they modified this term to "aneurismal bone cyst". They may be associated with bone tumors. The simple bone cyst is a common, benign, fluid-containing lesion, most commonly found in the metaphysis of long bones, typically the proximal humerus or femur ...

The commonest cyst arising from lateral wall is the nasopharyngeal branchial cyst, whereas the mucus retention cysts are the commonest to arise from the midline. [1] Sometimes nasopharyngeal cyst may directly refer to Tornwaldt cyst. [2]
There is a small association between Gartner's duct cysts and metanephric urinary anomalies, such as ectopic ureter and ipsilateral renal hypoplasia. [5] Symptoms of a Gartner's duct cyst include: infections, bladder dysfunction, abdominal pain, vaginal discharge, and urinary incontinence. [6] The size of the cyst is usually less than 2 cm.
Benign cyst kidney; radiological appearances mimic renal cancer, A cyst / s ɪ s t / is a closed sac, having a distinct envelope and division compared with the nearby tissue.Hence, it is a cluster of cells that have grouped together to form a sac (like the manner in which water molecules group together to form a bubble); however, the distinguishing aspect of a cyst is that the cells forming ...
A cystectomy is the removal of a cyst followed by mucosa and wound closure to reduce chances of cyst regeneration. This type of treatment is more ideal for small cysts. [citation needed] A cystostomy is recommended for larger cysts that compromise important adjacent anatomy. The cyst is tamponaded to allow for the cyst contents to escape the bone.
Peritoneal inclusion cysts are commonly visualized on ultrasonography as a spider-web-like pattern. A normal-looking ovary is encircled by a big, irregular or oval, echolucent cyst with fine internal septations. The ovary is frequently located in the middle of the inclusion cyst or on its lateral aspect, appearing to be dangling inside the cyst ...
