Giant epidermoid splenic cyst as a rare incidental finding

Abstract

Primary epidermoid splenic cysts are rare, congenital in nature, and benign lesions. Due to their low incidence, they may require a broad differential diagnosis, including differentiation from malignant lesions.

We present a case of an epidermoid splenic cyst diagnosed incidentally in the context of a biliary colic episode.

Keywords: splenic cyst, congenital, laparoscopic cystectomy.
