â¢A very rare type of retroperineal malignant cyst tumor is presented on two cases.â¢A very rare type of Mesothelioma tumor is presented on two cases.â¢A minimal invasive type of treatment is proposed instead of the regular open surgery.â¢A small literature review was performed.
Retroperitoneal cystic mesothelioma is a very rare lesion. The pathogeny is unclear and establishing a preoperative diagnosis versus others retroperitoneal cystic lesions is difficult.Thus, with increasing experience in laparoscopic retroperitoneal surgery, the use of this approach for exploration of a retroperitoneal mass of unknown origin may provide an alternative to classic open surgery and all the benefits of laparoscopy. We present two cases treated laparoscopycally and review the literature.
