title: [Giant uterine fibroma. Case report].
abstract: The presence of the giant abdominal-pelvic tumours is more and more rare because of the precocious methods of diagnosis. Sometimes the rare cases of giant uterine fibroma are met in medical practice and they need the use of atypical surgical techniques that are not entirely risk-free. In the present case, the giant uterine fibroma that was diagnosed (23/21/20 cm) was investigated clinically, and with imaging and pathologic techniques, then it underwent a surgical procedure in two stages, with major difficulties, because the entire anatomical structure of the pelvis was totally modified.
