Peritoneal loose bodies are rare lesions and are found incidentally during interventional procedures or on imaging studies for other reasons. These lesions often present a challenging diagnostic problem requiring advanced examinations and may show confusing findings that could indicate malignancy or metastatic lesions. We describe a case in a 53-year-old postmenopausal woman suffering from inguinal pain which was understood to be caused by a peritoneal loose body. The patient was diagnosed by the use of various methods including ultrasonography, CT, MRI, and also histological examinations following exploratory laparoscopy. If patients have abdominal pain in the presence of an oval or round well-defined mobile mass in radiological examinations, they should be carefully evaluated for the peritoneal loose body. Surgical removal is recommended for symptomatic peritoneal loose bodies and removal also makes it possible to exclude malignancies.
