Abstract EN
A giant pseudocyst is a rare complication after hernioplasty and is seldom seen.
The pathophysiology is unclear; it characteristically does not contain epithelial lining and can be considered giant if the diameter exceeds 10 cm.
Pseudocysts are mostly described after incisional hernia repairs and are usually treated with surgical resection.
We report a case of a giant pseudocyst three years after totally extra peritoneal inguinal hernia repair.
Laparoscopic fenestration without removing the pseudocyst with or without removal of the polypropylene mesh is a safe and effective minimal invasive approach to the treatment of a symptomatic pseudocyst and should also be considered in the approach of other large symptomatic cysts.
