A 50-year-old male patient was referred to Department of Radiodiagnosis for
evaluation of a longstanding intermittent abdominal pain associated with a
palpable mass migrating in different quadrants of the abdomen and had gradually
increased in size over last few years. The initial ultrasonographic (USG) evaluation
revealed a well circumscribed bilobed hypoechoic pelvic solid space occupying
lesion (SOL) with central calcific foci. Subsequent contrast enhanced computed
tomography (CECT) imaging showed a 10.1 x 7.5 x 5.8 cm, bilobed non-enhancing
pelvic mass with central dense calcific foci and concentric soft tissue layers of
different attenuation. The mass was diagnosed to be a giant peritoneal loose body
(gPLB) and confirmed by surgical exploration.
