Abstract
A 15 year old girl who had previously undergone laparotomy for ileal torsion in infancy was investigated for chronic abdominal pain. Ultrasound and MRI scanning revealed a large tubular cyst on the right lateral pelvic wall, extending into the abdomen. This was managed laparoscopically by extensive adhesionolysis and cystectomy . Laparoscopic management of large paraovarian cysts is well established in adult practice but experience in children is less well documented. The unusual configuration of this cyst, consequent to extensive adhesions from previous surgery, complicated the diagnosis. Its management by laparoscopy demonstrates the therapeutic capability of this approach despite difficult conditions stemming from dense intra-abdominal adhesions.
