If sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis may be secondary to peritoneal dialysis, tuberculosis, intraperitoneal chemotherapy or drug consumption, the idiopathic forms are exceptional. The physiopathology is an encasement of intestines by a fibrocollagenous membrane. This is a case of 53 year-old women with primary sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis admitted for bowel occlusion. Abdominal CT scan was performed (Figures A __ampersandsign B) and diagnosis was confirmed per-operatively (Figures C __ampersandsign D). The patient was discharged in day3. Etiological investigations were negative concluding to an idipathic form of sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis.</Abstract> <AbstractLanguage>English</AbstractLanguage> <Keywords>Cocoon syndrome, Idiopathic, Occlusion, Sclerosing peritonitis, Surgery</Keywords> <URLs> <Abstract>https://www.journal-jmsr.net/ubijournal-v1copy/journals/abstract.php?article_id=14414&title=Idiopathic Sclerosing Encapsulating Peritonitis (Abdominal Cocoon Syndrome)</Abstract> </URLs> <References> <ReferencesarticleTitle>References</ReferencesarticleTitle> <ReferencesfirstPage>16</ReferencesfirstPage> <ReferenceslastPage>19</ReferenceslastPage> <References>NA</References> </References> </Journal> </Article> </ArticleSet>
