Abstract
In general, most common localizations of endometriosis are the pelvic organs, until recently, the spleen was mentioned as the only abdominal organ resistant to the development of endometriosis. Our case report describes the differential diagnosis of a splenic cyst as an incidental finding during the examination of endometriosis, its interdisciplinary solution within surgery, gynaecology, radiology and infectious medicine, using robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery.
