Abstract EN

Urachal mucinous cystic tumours are rare pathological findings with only 23 previously reported cases in the literature.

We present the case of a 54-year-old man with an incidentally found urachal mucinous cystic tumour laparoscopically excised.

With its known potential to cause pseudomyxoma peritonei, complete surgical excision is important.

Long-term cystoscopic and radiological surveillance is also required.
