Abstract

Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a highly aggressive soft tissue sarcoma that most commonly arises in the abdomen and pelvis and spreads over serosal surfaces, leading to abdominal pain or distention. Despite aggressive multimodal therapy, outcomes remain poor. It is most common in adolescents and young adults and reports in younger children are rare. We present a case of a 2-year-old male with the atypical presentation of a right groin mass, found to be DSRCT within an inguinal hernia.

Abstract

This report describes a two-month-old girl who presented with signs and symptoms of a distal small bowel obstruction. She underwent an abdominal ultrasound that revealed a right lower quadrant cystic mass. A Technetium-99 scan revealed increased activity in the right lower quadrant consistent with a Meckel’s diverticulum. Following a nondiagnostic laparoscopic evaluation, a laparotomy was performed to allow direct palpation of the small bowel and colon. Direct palpation of the ileum revealed a soft intraluminal mass at the ileocecal valve. The child underwent an ileocecectomy and anastomosis incorporating the intraluminal mass. Pathologic analysis revealed an intraluminal enteric duplication cyst containing ectopic gastric mucosa. This case represents the first report of such an entity in an infant. A discussion of the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of the case and enteric duplication cysts is provided.
