title: [Giant bilateral ovarian tumor in a 14-year-old girl].
abstract: We present the case of a 14-year old girl, who underwent surgical treatment at the ward in 1993 due to giant twisted bilateral ovarian tumours (cystes folliculares). She had been admitted to hospital because of pains located in the hypogastrium area, nausea and vomiting. Increased abdomen circumference had been noted. At the time of being admitted to hospital the girl was having menarche. Having considered both the course of the disease and the clinical and ultrasonographic examination results, surgical treatment was prescribed. It was decided that both adnexa should be removed. On the right side a tiny fragment of regular ovary parenchyma was left. After the surgery the girl did not menstruate. As a result of a few months' hormonal treatment the girl's menstruation processes were brought to a regular state. At the moment the patient is a 20-year old, properly developed young woman.
