摘要
A 4-year old female child presented with clinical features of ascites that, on computed tomography, showed a huge thin-walled cystic lesion in the peritoneum. Laparotomy confirmed a unilocular cyst in the peritoneum adhered to the parietal wall and bowel but not originating from any internal organs. Histopathologic examination of the cyst wall was consistent with the diagnosis of benign mesothelioma. Benign cystic mesothelioma of the peritoneum has rarely been reported in children.
