Abstract EN
Benign cystic peritoneal mesothelioma is a rare tumor which frequently occurs in women of reproductive age.
Abdominal pain associated with pelvic or abdominal mass is the common clinical presentation.
We report the case of a 22-year-old woman with a pathological proved benign cystic mesothelioma of the peritoneum revealed by a small bowel obstruction and a painful left-sided pelvic mass with signs of psoitis.
Contrast enhanced abdominal CT-scan demonstrated a large pelvic cystic mass with mass effect on rectosigmoid and pelvic organs.
The patient underwent surgical removal of the tumor.
Pathological examination revealed the diagnosis of benign cystic mesothelioma of the peritoneum.
The outcome was excellent with a 12-month recoil.
