Splenic cysts are unusual in daily surgical practice and less than 1000 cases have been reported. Primary, true or epithelial splenic cysts, are even rarer. Most of the cases are asymptomatic until of significant size, at which time they are then detected incidentally on ultrasonography or CT scan. We report a case of 45 year old male with giant epithelial splenic cyst with about 2500 ml of brownish fluid was collected from the cyst. The specimen measured 180x160x120 mm and weighted 3500 grams. Laparotomy with splenectomy has been the method of choice for giant epithelial cysts.
