An abdominal wall pseudocyst refers to an encapsulated collection of fluid located superficially in the rectus abdominal muscles. This uncommon complication is diagnosed based on physical examination and computed tomography results. However, the etiology of its formation remains unclear. Abdominal wall pseudocyst can be effectively treated by surgery including complete excision of the cyst. Here, we report imaging findings of a giant pseudocyst in the anterior abdominal wall after an open radical cystectomy.
