title: [Giant cyst of the ovary. Report of a case].
abstract: A 38 year old woman nulligravida was admitted with increased abdominal girth for two years, an ultrasound revealed diagnosis of an ovarian cyst, at laparotomy we found a left giant ovarian cyst; hysterectomy was performed, there were no complications. Pathology reports an ovarian serous cystadenoma weighting 30 kg and uterine fibroids, Postoperative course was uneventful. In spite of accessible diagnostic imaging as ultrasound, we still find cases as the one we had described. There has not been reported a mass of this weight in our Institution before.
