An 18-year-old male presented in the emergency department with abdominal pain since two days and complaints of pollakisuria. Laboratory results showed increased infection parameters and ultrasound revealed an abscess in the abdominal lower right quadrant. The patient underwent diagnostic laparoscopy. We found an infected cyst, most likely an infected urachal remnant considering its location and the histological findings in the resected tissue.
