Rare and Incidental Finding of an Uninfected Urachal Cyst in an Adult Female
Urachal cysts are rare congenital anomalies, often asymptomatic and incidentally diagnosed, caused by abnormal persistence or incomplete obliteration of the urachus. We report a 38-year-old female with lower abdominal pain and UTI symptoms, incidentally found to have a non-infected urachal cyst on CT imaging. Managed conservatively with antibiotics, the case underscores the importance of individualized treatment and vigilant follow-up to monitor potential complications.
