Huge Non-parasitic Mesothelial Splenic Cyst in a Child: A Case Report and Literature Review

BACKGROUND: Splenic cysts are one of the relatively rare conditions in pediatric surgery practice. Primary non-parasitic splenic cysts are even more scarce. CASE PRESENTATION: A 13-years-old female patient presented with chronic left hypochondrial pain of 2 months duration. Abdominal ultrasonography...

description BACKGROUND: Splenic cysts are one of the relatively rare conditions in pediatric surgery practice. Primary non-parasitic splenic cysts are even more scarce. CASE PRESENTATION: A 13-years-old female patient presented with chronic left hypochondrial pain of 2 months duration. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography revealed huge 18 cm × 14 cm × 10 cm splenic cyst. Deroofing of the cyst was done which was complicated by secondary infection. Subsequently, the patient was re-operated on and partial splenectomy done with good outcome at 6 months follow up. CONCLUSION: Partial splenectomy is the best management strategy for huge non-parasitic splenic cysts in children. There is also less recurrence rate of splenic cysts with preservation of splenic functions.
