Resum
To review the differential diagnosis between abdominopelvic cysts and urachal cyst and the laparoscopic treatment of this entity. A 23-year-old woman presented a 85 x 25 mm pelvic cyst as an incidental finding on ultrasound examination. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a possible hydrosalpinx. On month later, the patient started complaining of abdominal pain and laparoscopy was indicated. Diagnosis was urachal cyst. Urachal disease tends to be asymptomatic. The most common complication is infection. The diagnostic tests of choice are ultrasound and MRI. Laparoscopy is a useful technique in the treatment of this entity.
