Bilateral retroperitoneal ovaries. A case report.
A 15-year-old girl presented with a large abdominopelvic mass that proved to be a retroperitoneal right ovarian cystadenofibroma. The patient's left ovary contained a small adenofibroma and was also retroperitoneal but otherwise grossly normal, as were the left tube and uterus. This is the first published report in which a patient's only ovaries appeared to have been located retroperitoneally.
