Mesenteric cysts are rare benign abdominal lesions that possess the risk of malignant transformation in 3% of reported cases. Most cysts are asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally or during the management of their complications. In the majority of cases, they arise from the mesentery of the small bowel, followed by the mesocolon. We present a case report of a 20-year-old female with an abdominal mesenteric cyst.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
