An analysis of results of the surgical treatment of 41 children with complicated tumors and cysts of the abdominal cavity shows that most frequent complications are torsion of the pedicle, testicle cysts and intestinal obstruction. Suppuration and rupture of the cyst are rare. The diagnostics is considerably difficult which is due to great variety of clinical manifestations and to the disease being rare. The present-day diagnostics and operative treatment represent an effective method of prevention of the above complications.
