Rubina Lone Department of Microbiology, SKIMS, India. 2015 09 28 Primary splenic cyst is a rare entity and majority of the cases are classified as epithelial cysts. They are uncommon, comprising only about 10% of benign non-parasitic cysts. Most of the cysts are asymptomatic, and they are incidental findings during abdominal ultrasonography. We report a case of 20 years old male who presented with 1 year history of mild abdominal pain and left upper quadrant fullness. Ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) both were suggestive of splenic cyst. Serological tests were negative for parasitic infection. Splenectomy was done. Histopathological findings are consistent with splenic epithelial cyst. https://acta.tums.ac.ir/index.php/acta/article/view/4008 https://acta.tums.ac.ir/index.php/acta/article/download/4008/3983
