Massive ovarian edema is an unusual cause of ovarian enlargement in young patients. Most cases are thought to result from venous and lymphatic obstruction, producing edema. We report the case of a 15-year-old girl with bilateral massive ovarian edema, findings on ultrasound imaging, and a review of the literature. The sonographic appearance is non-specific and can mimic neoplasia, and the definitive diagnosis requires histological examination. It is, however, an important condition to consider in a young patient with a complex ovarian mass in an appropriate clinical setting, as conservative treatment with ovarian preservation is often possible.
巨大卵巢水肿是年轻患者卵巢肿大的一种罕见原因。大多数病例被认为是由静脉和淋巴阻塞导致水肿引起的。我们报告了一例15岁双侧巨大卵巢水肿女孩的病例、超声成像检查结果，并对相关文献进行了综述。超声表现无特异性，可类似肿瘤，确诊需要组织学检查。然而，在合适的临床背景下，对于有复杂卵巢肿块的年轻患者，这是一个需要考虑的重要病症，因为通常可以进行保留卵巢的保守治疗。
