    Area of Science:

    • Pathology
    • Surgical Complications
    • Medical Diagnostics

    Background:

    • A case report of a splenic cyst in a 48-year-old female is presented.
    • The study reviews existing literature on splenic cyst etiology and diagnostic approaches.

    Observation:

    • Post-mortem examination findings of the splenic cyst are detailed.
    • Literature survey provides context for the observed case.

    Findings:

    • Discussion encompasses the etiology and differential diagnosis of splenic cysts.
    • The significance of Overwhelming Post-Splenectomy Infection (OPSI) syndrome as a sequela of splenectomy is addressed.
