2 FIGURE 1 (A) Gross inspection of the left inguinal mass revealed a 2.7 cm smooth walled cyst and attached pedicle. (B) The cyst wall is lined with a single layer of flattened epithelium consistent with a mesothelial origin. (C) A layer of smooth muscle supports the cyst wall. (D, E) Immunoperoxidase stains for estrogen and progesterone revealed nuclear reactivity in the smooth muscle layer.
