A sixteen-year-old girl treated by total splenectomy for epidermoid cyst of the spleen is presented: Epidermoid cysts of the spleen account for ten percent of non-parasitic cysts. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography are the most reliable studies available in the diagnosis of these cysts. Partial splenectomy is the best mode of treatment for this disease, if feasible.
