Case 2
Presented by: D. C. Kuhnen

Clinical History
A 15-year-old boy presented with a 7cm cystic lesion in the upper left abdomen. The lesion had been detected by ultrasound on occasion following a traumatic event. Additional smaller solid tumor nodules surrounded the cystic process nearby and apparently represented tumor dissemination. Tumor resection was performed under the suspicion of a malignant tumor.
Macroscopic findings:The resetion specimen included a cystic area measuring 7x5x4 cm excised from the ligamentum gastrocolicum. Two additional tumor nodules up to approx. 3,5cm located nearby were resected apart from several smaller nodules up to 1, cm which were found within the greater omentum. The cystic area filled with partly hemorrhagic fluid, the solid nodules showed a white, firm cut surface.
