The ultrasound diagnosis of a fetal intra-abdominal cyst is typically established during the second or third trimester in the majority of cases. They primarily arise from the gastrointestinal or genitourinary system during the development of intra-abdominal structure and if isolated may resolve spontaneously. Enteric or enterogenous or enteric duplication cysts, which are congenital developments from the intestine, are most common. This case of an enterogenous cyst is presented because of its extreme rarity, its large size, and the need for prenatal intervention. Early identification and definitive treatment are necessary for proper management of this condition.
