| mesothelioma, cystic | A peritoneal mesothelioma affecting mainly young females and producing cysts of variable size and number lined by a single layer of benign mesothelial cells. The disease follows a benign course and is compatible with a normal life expectancy, requiring occasionally partial excision or decompression for relief of pain or other symptoms. Malignant potential is exceptional. (12 Dec 1998) |

| cystic adenomatoid malformation of lung, congenital | A developmental anomaly that usually becomes apparent in the neonatal period with progressive respiratory distress. This malformation is a focal pulmonary dysplasia characterised by a multicystic mass of terminal bronchiolar structures. Ccam is classified into 3 separate types (I, II, III) depending on cyst size. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cystic adnexal masses | <radiology> Ovarian cyst, mature follicle measures up to 2.5 cm at ovulation, corpus luteum cyst common in first 16 weeks of pregnancy, polycystic (Stein-Leventhal) disease, paraovarian cyst, Wolffian duct remnants in broad ligament, ovarian neoplasm, serous cystadenoma (most common benign ovarian tumour), mucinous cystadenoma (usually complex), cystic teratoma (usually complex), endometriosis, diffuse (not detectable by ultrasound), localised (generally anechoic or hypoechoic), ectopic pregnancy, pelvic inflammatory disease, gonorrhoea or chlamydia, localised abscess and hydrosalpinx, non-gynecologic mass, mesenteric cyst, ureterocele, bladder diverticula, lymphocele (12 Dec 1998) |

| cystic diathesis | A condition in which multiple cysts form in the liver, kidneys, and other organs. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cystic disease of renal medulla | Presence of small cysts in the renal medulla associated with anaemia, sodium depletion, and chronic renal failure. It is of two types: 1) fatal autosomal recessive or juvenile type (also called familial juvenile nephrophthisis), beginning at about age 10 with an average duration of 6 to 8 years; 2) autosomal dominant or adult type, beginning at about age 30 but with a more fulminant course. Synonym: microcystic disease of renal medulla. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cystic duct | <anatomy> A bile duct that connects the gallbladder to the common bile duct. A gallstone that blocks the cystic duct can lead to inflammation and infection of the gallbladder. See: common bile duct. (27 Sep 1997) |

| cystic fibrosis |
This is an inherited disease of the exocrine glands affecting the lungs and the digestive systems. The lungs in these persons can become infected easily which may cause permanent damage to the alveoli, bronchioles and bronchi. Production of thick, sticky mucus blocks the airways and obstructs normal ventilation and function of the lungs.

| cystic fibrosis |
A genetic disease involving a sticky buildup of mucus in the lungs (which makes breathing difficult and leads to infections), as well as pancreatic insufficiency (which leads to digestive problems). It is a recessive disease, occurring only when a child inherits two mutated copies of the CF gene--one from each parent.
