ABSTRACT
Cysts of the inguinal cord are disorders that simulate inguinal hernias and manifest as inguinal masses and, in some cases, are accompanied by pain that can simulate a complicated inguinal hernia. We report the third case of a round ligament cyst in a 21-year-old female with a mass in the right inguinal area with intermittent pain. The patient was subjected to surgical exploration of the right inguinal area where a round ligament cyst was found. The ligament was resected and reported as a serous cyst. The patient's outcome was excellent and she was discharged 24 h after surgery. She has been followed up for 3 months without recurrence. Round ligament cysts are very rare disorders, and the diagnosis is perioperative. Resection of the round ligament causes complete symptom relief, and every case requires inguinal hernioraphy.
