We describe the extraordinary finding of a hepatic epidermoid cyst in a 5-year-old patient, treated successfully with laparoscopic deroofing and mucosal stripping. The pathologic examination revealed a cyst with the same features of a true epithelial splenic cyst whose origin is still controversial, even though a coelomic derivation is the most accredited hypothesis. A cyst in this anatomic district with such characteristics has never been described in existent literature.

Abstract
We describe the extraordinary finding of a hepatic epidermoid cyst in a 5-year-old patient, treated successfully with laparoscopic deroofing and mucosal stripping. The pathologic examination revealed a cyst with the same features of a true epithelial splenic cyst whose origin is still controversial, even though a coelomic derivation is the most accredited hypothesis. A cyst in this anatomic district with such characteristics has never been described in existent literature.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
