Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Hepatology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Splenic cysts are rare, encompassing infectious and noninfectious etiologies.
  • Diagnosis relies on advanced imaging modalities like ultrasonography, CT, and MRI.

Observation:

  • A case of a benign, noninfectious splenic cyst is presented.
  • Cystic content analysis for pathogens and amylase is crucial for classification.

Findings:

  • Noninfectious splenic cysts exceeding 4 cm or causing symptoms necessitate surgical management.
  • Laparoscopic decapsulation is a recommended surgical approach for these cases.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to splenic cysts.
  • Effective management of splenic cysts improves patient outcomes and reduces complication risks.
