| description | Dermoid cysts are one of the most common ovarian tumors especially in young patients; however, parasitic dermoid cysts are extremely rare with the most common site being the omentum. This case demonstrates a new site for parasitic dermoid cyst; on the reflection of uterovesical pouch onto the anterior abdominal wall which is known anatomically as the median umbilical fold, as well as previously unreported clinical presentation which is the perception of something moving inside the abdomen, that can be explained by the presence of the parasitic dermoid cyst close to the anterior abdominal wall in this case. |
