Summary

Asymptomatic voluminous splenic cysts can be detected as an accidental finding whereas those with surrounding organs compression might be sought after. After succesful diagnosis a reasonable therapy proceeds. There are two treatment options, either a commonly used surgical management including resection or unroofing of the cyst (a better option), or splenectomy. The authors present two case reports of not revolutionary but yet rarely used splenic cyst drainage and sclerotisation procedure with very good outcomes.

Key words:
splenic cyst – treatment – drainage
