Round Ligament's Cyst Passing Through Ingunal Canal

Özet

Abstract Round ligament cysts are quite rare. Clinically, they generally resemble to inguinal hernias. In this case, we will present a 44 years old female patient applying to clinic for inguinal pain and swelling. Ultrasound and computed tomography was used for the mass in inguinal area for differential diagnosis. This mass, which was noticed to be related to abdomen, was confirmed to be a round ligament cyst after operation both macroscopically and histopathologically.Key words: Round ligamente, cystic mass. Introduction Masses handled in inguinal areas are generally ingunal and femoral hernias. Lymphadenopathies, benign and malign tumors, saphena varices, femoral venous aneurysms, abcesses, endometriotic centres can also be included (1).With the aim of increasing the clinical experiences of rarely seen round ligament cysts and indicating that should be thought in differential diagnosis, we hope that the case with which we handle will stand as an example.
