Clinical and ultrasonic diagnosis denied any signs of malignancy. Pneumoperitoneum and a 5\u2003mm trocar were inserted safely in the left midclavicular line below the ninth costal margin. This trocar allowed us to inspect the peritoneal cavity thoroughly. Another 5\u2003mm trocar was inserted suprapubically in the contralateral side of the cyst and better inspection of the cyst and peritoneal cavity was then done. In the case of an apparently benign cyst, aspiration of the cyst fluid was done after puncturing its wall, then the cyst was removed as usual.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> In all of these cases, there was no laparoconversion and no other complications were recorded.
