Giant abdominal cyst can lead to various non-specific symptoms such as abdominal bloating, nausea/vomiting, constipation due to its mass effect. In rarer circumstances, it can lead to bowel obstruction, hydronephrosis and even abdominal compartment syndrome. Hereby, we present a case of giant abdominal cyst in a young woman where its origin was a diagnostic dilemma despite exhausting all imaging techniques. A laparotomy was performed and the giant cyst was found to be originating from the left ovary. The final histopathology confirmed it as an ovarian benign serous cystadenoma. The patient made a fully recovery without any complications.
巨大腹部囊肿可因其占位效应导致各种非特异性症状,如腹胀、恶心/呕吐、便秘。在较罕见的情况下,它可导致肠梗阻、肾积水甚至腹腔间隔室综合征。在此,我们报告一例年轻女性巨大腹部囊肿病例,尽管用尽了所有影像学技术,其起源仍存在诊断难题。进行了剖腹手术,发现巨大囊肿起源于左侧卵巢。最终组织病理学证实其为卵巢良性浆液性囊腺瘤。患者完全康复,无任何并发症。
