Abstract:
Objective To summarize the diagnosis and surgical treatment of mesenteric cyst in children.Methods The clinical records of mesenteric cyst cases from January 2011 to December 2015 were reviewed retrospectively.The diagnosis and treatment options were analyzed, and the prognosis of laparoscopic surgery and laparotomy was compared.Results The main clinical symptoms included abdominal mass, abdominal pain, and abdominal distension.Abdominal ultrasound and/or CT scan were the diagnostic tools in all cases.Traditional laparotomy was performed in 14 cases, while laparoscopy in 7 cases (1 case switched to laparotomy).2 cases had emergency surgery due to acute abdomen, laparotomy and laparoscopy in each case.Simple cyst resections were completed in 14 cases, of which 2 cases with a small amount of residual in the mesenteric root.Intestinal resection and anastomosis were required in other 7 cases.The average time of hospital stay for laparotomy group was 12 days, and 10.14 days for laparoscopy group.There was no significant difference.All patients were discharged without postoperative complications.With 1-4 years follow-up, there was no recurrence.Conclusion The operation for mesenteric cysts depends on the relationship between the cyst and the adjacent bowel or organs, and the overall outcome is favorable.The selective use of laparoscopy will benefit more children.
