Abstract
Giant Ovarian Cyst Adenoma in a Postmenopausal Woman: A Case Report with Literature review
Begum DA
Giant ovarian cysts are benign in most cases and histopathologically they are
either serous or mucinous. A case of large ovarian cyst (20 × 18 × 10cm) is reported
here. She presented at our OPD clinic with complaints of gradual distension of
abdomen and a palpable mass for 6 months. At laparotomy a giant, cystic, smooth,
vascularized mass adherent with fallopian tube was encountered. Considering age
and premenopausal status we performed Total Abdominal Hysterectomy with
Bilateral Salphingo-ophorectomy. Histopathology revealed serous cystadenoma of
ovary. Post-operative recovery was excellent and patient was discharged at 5th
post-operative day in a good health status.
