Abstract

An 85-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital due to pain and swelling in her right inguinal region. She had a right inguinal hernia. Abdominal computerized tomography revealed an 8x8 cm cecal mass and also a 13.5 cm segmental asymmetric nodular thickening of the cecum. Colonoscopic examination revealed a sessile polypoid mucus-secreting mass mimicking carcinoma that narrowed the cecal lumen. Histopathological examinations of sections from colonoscopic biopsy materials on light microscopy revealed villous adenoma morphology. The patient underwent operation, and an 18x6x4 cm mass, which partially obstructed the cecum, was seen. A right hemicolectomy was performed for complete excision. Histopathological examination revealed a pure villous adenoma, and there was no sign of malignant degeneration. On the 6th postoperative day, the patient was discharged from the hospital. During follow-ups at three-month intervals throughout one year, no abnormal colonoscopic or laboratory findings were assessed. We believe that, in older patients with inguinal hernia, presence of intraabdominal mass should be considered. Furthermore, we showed in this report that villous adenomas can reach significant dimensions without causing any obtructing signs or electrolyte imbalance and can mimic colon carcinoma.

Özet

Seksenbeş yaşında bayan hasta sağ alt kadranda ağrı ve şişlik yakınmasıyla başvurdu. Ayrıca sağ inguinal hernisi de mevcuttu. Abdominal tomografide çekum ve terminal ileumda yaklaşık 13,5 cm’lik bir segmentte asimetrik nodüler duvar kalınlaşması, saptandı. Kolonoskopide, çekumda lümeni ileri derecede daraltan, üzerinde yoğun mukus salgısı içeren polipoid lezyon saptandı. Kolonoskopi sırasında alınan multiple biopsilerin patolojik incelemesinde villöz adenom morfolojisi görüldü, malignite saptanmadı. Endoskopik polipektominin mümkün olmadığı hasta ameliyat edildi. Sağ kolonda çekum üzerinde 18x6x4 cm boyutlarında sert kitle görüldü ve hastaya sağ hemikolektomi yapıldı. Patolojik incelemesinde villöz adenom dışında başka patolojik bulguya rastlanmadı. Bir yıllık izleminde subjektif yakınması olmayan hastanın kontrol kolonoskopik incelemelerinde patolojik bulguya rastlanmadı. Sonuç olarak, inguinal herni nedeniyle başvuran ileri yaş hastalar, intraabdominal yer işgal eden lezyonlar yönünden dikkatli araştırılmalıdır. Bununla birlikte villöz adenomlar, elektrolit dengesizliğine neden olmaksızın, parsiyel obstrüksiyona neden olacak kadar büyük boyutlara ulaşabilir ve kolon kanserini taklit edebilir.
