A Large Splenic Epidermoid Cyst Initially Misdiagnosed as a Hydatid Cyst.

BACKGROUND Splenic cysts are classified as either parasitic or non-parasitic cysts, with both types sharing similarities in their clinical presentation and imaging findings. Most splenic cysts are of parasitic origin, while non-parasitic splenic cysts are less common. Splenic epidermoid cysts (SECs) are a rare subtype of non-parasitic cysts and compromise only around 10% of them.

Total hip arthroplasty for adult patients with hip arthritis in Jordan: clinical profiles and patient characteristics.
