Abstract EN
Epidermoid cyst is a frequent benign cutaneous tumor.
The pelvic localization does not occur very often.
The literature that taps into such cases is very limited in scope.
Here is a report of a 27-year-old woman with a giant pelvic retroperitoneal epidermoid cyst.
The use of ultrasound exploration and computed tomography has indicated ovarian origins.
The surgery also revealed a retroperitoneal epidermoid cyst, uterus and ovaries were all intact.
The evacuation of a cyst was found to contain lamellas of keratin.
Histology permitted us to confirm the diagnosis.
The patient was faring well after two years of followup.
