Abstract

The objective of this article is to present a rare case such as peritoneal inclusion cyst or a benign cyst mesothelioma, a rare injury that predominantly affects women of reproductive age, with a still unknown etiology. Materials and Methods: We present the clinical case of a 36-year-old women, asymptomatic, with a pelvic ultrasound reported free abdominal fluid in a medical checkup. In her medical history revealed that six years ago the patient underwent laparotomy for complicated appendicitis with peritonitis. The abdominal and pelvic scan showed a giant cystic lesion of 20 cm x 17 cm x 10 cm, which occupies part of the abdomen and pelvis. Result: surgical treatment was decided and the patient underwent laparotomy, achieving the complete elimination of cystic mass and small bowel resection joined the cyst was performed. The histopathology report confirmed the diagnosis of peritoneal inclusion cyst. Conclusion: location, type of injury and behavior of mesothelioma cysts should be considered as they have a high recurrence rate and are often asymptomatic.
