Mesenteric cysts are rare intra-abdominal tumors. Most are found during laparotomy for other reasons. The symptoms are often vague and minimal. CT of the abdomen gives the most information and is the diagnostic method of choice. The preferred treatment for mesenteric cysts is complete resection at laparotomy. However, the advancement of minimal-access surgery has allowed laparoscopic excision as a safe and advantageous approach with minimal morbidity and shorter hospital stay and recovery time for the patient. |
