ABSTRACT: Peritoneal loose bodies or “peritoneal
mice” are rare well circumscribed benign masses composed of free-floating
organized fat necrosis. They are usually asymptomatic and found as
“incidentalomas” during Imaging. Their pathogenesis is not well known. We report
a rare case of giant intraperitoneal mice which was clinically misdiagnosed as
left seminal vesicle malignancy. A review of the literature is also presented.
