The cystic pathology of the spleen is comparatively infrequent and the origin is parasitic, hidatid the parasitic cysts are the 65% of the total and the cysts secondary at trauma are the 28%. The real or primary cysts of the spleen are only the 75 of the case record. Analyze, in this work, the etiology and the clinic of these formations and show the personal experience about a clinical case arrived at our observation with negative anamnesis for trauma and with aspecific sintomatology like dispepsia. We think that this notification is useful because the cystic primary formations of the spleen are very rare.
