Abstract

A 44-year-old virgin with abdominal mass and anemia was
admitted to our hospital. The patient complained of constipation
and a palpable mass in the abdomen for about 4 years. On
transabdominal ultrasonography, a giant, complex, solid, lobulated
mass 152x142x81mm in size was observed. Exploratory
laparotomy was performed. There was a giant, multiple lobulated
irregular-shaped solid mass occupying the whole abdomen,
reaching the xiphioid and infiltrating the omentum. The size of the
mass arising from the left utero-ovarian ligament was approximately
30x15cm. The histopathologic report confirmed the diagnosis of
leiomyoma with myxoid degeneration.

şikayeti vardı. Abdominal ultrasonografide 152x142x81mm
büyüklüğünde kompleks, solid lobule yapıda kitle izlendi.
Laparotomi planlandı. Operasyonda ksifoide kadar uzanan dev,
multi-lobule, düzensiz sınırları olan sert kitle görüldü. Kitlenin
büyüklüğü yaklaşık 30x15cm idi ve sol utero-ovaryen ligamentten
kaynaklanıyordu. Patoloji raporu miksoid degenerasyon gösteren
fibrom olarak geldi.
