  • Title: Laparoscopic partial splenectomy for splenic epidermoid cyst.
    Author: Jain P, Parelkar S, Shah H, Sanghvi B.
    Journal: J Laparoendosc Adv Surg Tech A; 2008 Dec; 18(6):899-902. PubMed ID: 19105678.
    Abstract:
    The treatment strategy of the splenic cyst is controversial. Better understanding of the splenic segmental anatomy, need of splenic conservation, and advances in laparoscopic skills has made laparoscopic partial splenectomy a preferred treatment for splenic cysts. In this paper, we report a case of splenic epidermoid cyst managed successfully by laparoscopic partial splenectomy. Also, results of various treatment strategies were reviewed.
