Abstract

Primary retroperitoneal mucinous cystadenoma (PRMC) is a rare pathology. Until our last update literature review there is 49 cases published. We present the case number 50 to the scientific literature. A 42-years-old female that presented to our clinic with abdominal pain was diagnosed as retroperitoneal cystic lesion by computed tomography scan. She underwent laparoscopic resection with no complications. The histopathology reveled a PRMC with no malignancy futures. These rare cystic lesions should be included as differential diagnosis at the preoperative stage. The best management option is the complete surgical excision with no intraoperative spillage.
