ABSTRACT
Introduction:
A benign tumor of middle-aged women, mucinous cystadenoma accounts for about 20% of tumors of the ovary. It can reach very large sizes. Clinical observation We report the case of a 42-year-old patient received for a voluminous abdomino-pelvic mass. The examination found a soft, rounded, fairly mobile abdomino-pelvic mass going up to the level of the xiphoid appendix with a light skin and collateral venous circulation. Imaging showed a circumscribed fluid formation occupying the abdomino-pelvic cavity of 40.1 x 29 x 25.7 cm developed at the expense of the ovary. A laparotomy brought to light a voluminous cyst at the expense of the left ovary with fluid content cowardly adhering to the abdominal wall and intimately to the left proboscis. The uterus and right adnexa were unremarkable. We performed a left adnexectomy with satisfactory hemostasis taking away the cyst. The adnexectomy piece weighed 13.5 kg. The surgical follow-ups were simple. Anatomo-pathological examination confirmed a mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary.Conclusion:
Mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary is a benign tumor which can reach very large volumes. Its treatment is surgical and the follow-ups are usually simple.Palavras-chave
