  2. Oral mucocele - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_mucocele

    Recurrence is possible, thus the adjacent salivary gland may be excised as a preventive measure. Hence surgical removal of cyst is treatment of choice. [7] Several types of procedures are available for the surgical removal of mucoceles. These include laser and minimally invasive techniques, which means recovery times are reduced drastically. [8]

  3. Polycystic liver disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycystic_liver_disease

    Polycystic liver disease (PLD) usually describes the presence of multiple cysts scattered throughout normal liver tissue. [1] PLD is commonly seen in association with autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease, with a prevalence of 1 in 400 to 1000, and accounts for 8–10% of all cases of end-stage renal disease. [2]

  4. Cysts of the jaws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cysts_of_the_jaws

    After treatments, the patient should be informed of the risk of recurrence. Some people are more susceptible than others. This can be due to their oral and dental condition or inherited condition. [10] In some cases, there are some cysts remain after the surgery called the residual cysts and most of them arise from a periapical cyst. Glandular ...

  5. Liver tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_tumor

    Like hepatic adenomas, they are diagnosed with imaging and biopsies as needed. Treatment of liver cell adenomatosis is difficult due to the multiple, widespread lesions. Liver imaging should be reviewed to see if it is possible to surgically remove the tumors. [7] Liver transplantation is a treatment option for some patients. [7]

  6. Glandular odontogenic cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glandular_odontogenic_cyst

    The occurrence of GOC may be from a mutated cell from "the oral mucosa and the dental follicle" origin. [15] Another probable cause is from pre-existing cysts or cancerous constituents. [ 12 ] A potential biological origin of GOC is a cyst developed at a salivary gland or simple epithelium, which undergoes maturation at the glandular. [ 4 ]

  7. Hepatectomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatectomy

    Another primary malignant liver tumor is the cholangiocarcinoma. Hepatectomy may also be the procedure of choice to treat intrahepatic gallstones or parasitic cysts of the liver. [citation needed] Partial hepatectomies are also performed to remove a portion of a liver from a living donor for transplantation. [3]

  8. Periapical cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periapical_cyst

    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.

  9. Cirrhosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cirrhosis

    Cirrhosis, also known as liver cirrhosis or hepatic cirrhosis, chronic liver failure or chronic hepatic failure and end-stage liver disease, is an acute condition of the liver in which the normal functioning tissue, or parenchyma, is replaced with scar tissue and regenerative nodules as a result of chronic liver disease.
