Huge cystic lesion measured 288×269×186mm in diameters and homogenous internal contents (Mean attenuation value = 20HU) is present at abdomino-pelvic spaces, extends from level of pancreas till lower pelvis . Marked mass effect on adjacent structures are seen. There is no CT-detectable septation, soft tissue component or calcification within the cyst.
Case Discussion
Large abdominopelvic cystic lesion; giant mesenteric cyst is the most probable diagnosis. Hydatid cyst and ovarian cystic lesions can be considered in differential list.
