Needs

–Needs a picture like this. (Ignore the annoying music, just first one I found I liked in google). I'm just too afraid of all this copyright stuff to even to try to figure out how to upload a random picture from User:Nastajus|Nastajus]] 05:03, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

Merge with Encystment

I'm against the mege, becuase as defined here it seems that encystment looks like a voluntary thing from the organism, while cyst seems to be an uncontrolled growth (or at least an unwelcome growth). Since the tags have been up since June, I'll take them off for now, but if someone wants to start the debate up again with better (or more accurate information) feel free to add the tags in again.

I agree with the Brown Wizard. Provide a link to Encystment as a related article, but do not merge. rowley (talk) 14:43, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Develosion

Is "develosion" actually a word? I haven't been able to find it except in articles that cite this one. - Cyborg Ninja 05:06, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Devolution (=degeneration)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.162.69.138 (talk) 15:27, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Inside the mouth

Does any author know about the kind of cyst that forms within the mouth because the inner lining has been bitten. I have had a look through all the cyst articles and found nothing. Cheers_Ad@m.J.W.C. 11:43, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

PLEASE stop adding cystic fibrosis here

The name "cystic Fibrosis is due to the apparition of a fibrosis (overdeveloppment of the conjonctive tissue) in the cystic duct. Nothing to do with cysts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.206.220.46 (talk) 20:45, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's a reference, so it's appropriate that it should say. WLU (talk) 20:57, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You apparently forgot to include the reference. I bet you'll have trouble finding such a thing in a reliable scientific or medical source. Try a PubMed search for "cystic fibrosis AND review[article type]". And then PLEASE remove your misleading addition. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.206.220.46 (talk) 21:06, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I suggest that you check this interesting article for example: http://www.jpedsurg.org/article/PIIS0022346897901743/pdf (if you don't have access, try http://www.jpedsurg.org/article/PIIS0022346897901743/abstract) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.206.220.46 (talk) 21:20, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, guess you're right. Fixed. WLU (talk) 21:40, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thx. Maybe the section on cystic fibrosis in the article could be removed then, the discussion page should be enough. No? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.206.220.46 (talk) 21:51, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
74.56.148.236 (talk) 00:02, 5 January 2008 (UTC) Actually the real origin of the name comes from fibrosis in all parts of the biliary tract, cystic being a generic adjective for all that is related to the biliary vesicle and/or the bladder. But I thought that mentionning only the cystic duct (which name actually contain the word "cystic") would make things clearer.[reply]

Questionable External Link

The link to a "Blog about Ovarian Cysts Rupturing and Prevention by Rebecca Mills" seems a bit weird to me, mainly because it seems to advertise a website rather than supply any information. I have removed it for now, but if it has any merit being there then I'll be willing to have it put back —Preceding unsigned comment added by SpunkyLM (talkcontribs) 19:07, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Opening sentence is unclear

"A cyst is a closed sac, having a distinct membrane and division ??on?? the nearby tissue."

What does "division on" mean? Should it be "division from"? ("Division" used to be "develosion" or some such nonexistent word, and even after the correction was made, the result apparently still doesn't make sense.)

Also, "division" links to "cell division", which is something altogether different, isn't it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.100.188.13 (talk) 00:31, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

pancreatic

It seems that there are also pancreatic cysts. I no nothing about them, but ran across the term. Wakablogger2 (talk) 22:43, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

self-resolation

What is "self-resolation"? It is mentioned only on Wikipedia and seems like an improper translation.

The quote reads: "There are cysts, e.g. buccal bifurcation cyst with self-resolation nature, in which close observation only can be employed unless the cyst is infected and symptomatic." — Preceding unsigned comment added by NyaR (talkcontribs) 00:25, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Confusing

There are a lot of confusing sentences, and a lot of incorrect commas. There are way too many parentheses. The article seems unprofessional. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.225.32.8 (talk) 09:32, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Link-backs

The "Types" section is a long list, many of which simply link back to this article. Which is kind of rude. rowley (talk) 14:46, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Picture

I would appreciate it if a picture of a cyst could be uploaded. I would do it but I'd rather not fiddle with copyright. MightyArms (talk) 23:54, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
