“…The classification of splenic cysts can be seen in Table 1 1 , other authors propose to classify according to the extension in the spleen and its relation to the splenic hilum 5 , which may be useful for the surgical decision.…”

“…The splenic cyst may be epidermoid, transitional or mesothelial, or all three at once (the metaplasia of the mesothelium is well known). There are secondary non-parasitic cysts, usually to traumatisms, delimited by dense fibrous tissue with or without calcification and haemosiderin deposition [4][5][6] . Within splenic cysts or tumors, lymphangiomas are the rarest in frequency, usually subcapsular, having calcified mural lesions 3 .…”

Giant nonparasitic splenic epidermoid cysts are relatively uncommon. These lesions can lead abdominal pain, but most of them are asymptomatic, and they are discovered incidentally. We report a 13-y old female with a giant splenic epidermoid cystic, given the special interest of diagnostic and therapeutic decision-making of this rare entity. Case report: A 13-y old female with clinical history of abdominal pain since the last two months. On physical examination a firm, hemotender mass was palpable in left hypochondrium. Diagnosis of a large cystic splenic mass was made based on ultrasound and abdominal computed tomography scan. Splenectomy was performed, and histopathological-immunohistochemistry studies revealed findings suggestive of primary epithelial cyst. The post-operative clinical course was satisfactory and uneventful. Conclusions: Treatment of giant nonparasitic splenic cysts is surgical. Preserve splenic parenchyma must be the aim in an individualized decision-making. The different types of surgical modalities will be according to the diagnosis and clinical situation (cyst size, age, comorbidities).

Epidermoid cyst is a frequent benign cutaneous tumor. The pelvic localization does not occur very often. The literature that taps into such cases is very limited in scope. Here is a report of a 27-year-old woman with a giant pelvic retroperitoneal epidermoid cyst. The use of ultrasound exploration and computed tomography has indicated ovarian origins. The surgery also revealed a retroperitoneal epidermoid cyst, uterus and ovaries were all intact. The evacuation of a cyst was found to contain lamellas of keratin. Histology permitted us to confirm the diagnosis. The patient was faring well after two years of followup.

Re-evaluation of histological findings of nonparasitic splenic cysts

Abstract: In contrast with the prevailing belief, it has been demonstrated that NPSCs are congenital in origin, and there is no clinically proven evidence that trauma does play a role in their genesis.
