Abstrakt: At laparotomy, an enormous cyst arising from the sigmoid mesentery and extending into the mesorectum was identified that was intricately related to the sigmoid colon, pushing it into the right upper quadrant. Computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen and pelvis demonstrated a large cystic mass in the pelvis and central abdomen measuring 24 × 19 × 12 cm displacing the sigmoid colon anteriorly and the bladder posteroinferiorally. A 58-year-old female presented with a 4-week history of intermittent dull right-sided abdominal pain, mild nausea and a sensation of incomplete bladder emptying upon micturition.
