These cysts can present with nonspecific symptoms and may mimic other abdominal pathologies, making diagnosis challenging.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case presentation:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 41-year-old male with no significant medical history, who experienced progressive nonspecific abdominal pain over several months. Clinical examination revealed a poorly defined mass in the right hemi-abdomen. Imaging studies, including CT and MRI, identified an elongated subhepatic cystic lesion, suggesting a peritoneal inclusion cyst or mesenteric cyst. Surgical intervention was decided following multidisciplinary team consultation. Intraoperative findings revealed a 13 cm intraperitoneal cyst with clear fluid content in the right hemi-abdomen, adherent to adjacent structures. Monobloc cystectomy was performed, and a histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a peritoneal inclusion cyst.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>PICs are rare and typically affect females, with only limited cases reported in males. These cysts can be asymptomatic or present with non-specific symptoms such as abdominal pain or distension, often requiring imaging and, occasionally, surgical exploration for diagnosis. The differential diagnosis includes other cystic abdominal lesions, emphasizing the need for thorough clinical and imaging assessment. The preferred management of PICs is surgical excision, as it provides histological confirmation and minimizes recurrence risk.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case highlights a rare presentation of a PIC in a male patient, underscoring the importance of considering PICs within the differential diagnosis of abdominal cystic lesions regardless of patient gender. Surgical resection remains the primary management approach, but further research is needed to establish standardized guidelines for diagnosis and treatment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2024.110792","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,26]],"date-time":"2024-12-26T02:25:50Z","timestamp":1735179950000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["A case report of a rare etiology of an abdominal cystic lesion in adults: Peritoneal inclusion cysts"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"126","author":[{"given":"Ahmed Hadj","family":"Taieb","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Visceral and Digestive Surgery, Monastir University Hospital, Monastir, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed Ali","family":"Chaouch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Visceral and Digestive Surgery, Monastir University Hospital, Monastir, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed","family":"Zayati","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Visceral and Digestive Surgery, Monastir University Hospital, Monastir, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ramzi","family":"Beltaifa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Visceral and Digestive Surgery, Monastir University Hospital, Monastir, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Besma","family":"Gafsi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesia, Monastir University Hospital, Monastir, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Faouzi","family":"Noomen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Visceral and Digestive Surgery, Monastir University Hospital, Monastir, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"issue":"10","key":"R1-143-20260508","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"737","DOI":"10.1097\/00000478-198810000-00001","article-title":"Multicystic mesothelioma: an analysis of pathologic findings and biologic behavior in 37 cases","volume":"12","author":"Weiss","year":"1988","journal-title":"Am.
