Robotic assisted excision of a mesenteric cyst of Müllerian origin in a 29-year-old woman
Mesenteric cysts are rare, benign tumors of uncertain etiology that require management. The Müllerian subtype of one of the rarer types of mesenteric cysts. Diagnosis of a mesenteric cyst typically involves nonspecific symptoms or an asymptomatic presentation. Treatment involves resection to prevent life-threatening complications. Resection through laparotomy surgery is the most common approach. The laparoscopic approach is gaining traction. We present a case in which a large mesenteric cyst was resected using a robotic assisted laparoscopic approach.
