Herein we reported a patient with presentation of retained three surgical sponge in abdominal cavity. Case Report: A 25-years old female patient was referred to ED in 2011 for complaints of abdominal pain. This patient had history of hospitalization 60 days before this admission because of multiple trauma and penetrating trauma to left flank. In recent admission, abdominal x-rays and CT scan revealed a cystic mass with dimension of 8×4cm. Laparatomy was done for this patient. Then she discharged after 3 days and her abdominal pain resolved after operation. Conclusion: Retained foreign bodies should be considered in differential diagnosis of post operation in all patients with unusual complaints after surgery.
