The content of the cyst measured approximately 850cc. and it was dark brown, hemorrhagic and sparkling due to large amount of the cholesterol crystals contained in it.

Displacement of the stomach to the right and the splenic flexure of the colon and the left kidney downwards on the roentgenogram is the characteristic findings of the splenic cyst. The m arsupialization was performed in this case and the result was satisfactory.
