Abstract
|
|
|
|
The dermoid cysts occur most frequently in the ovary and are extremely rare in the greater omentum. We report a case of dermoid cyst of the greater omentum misdiagnosed as right ovarian cyst. She was a 27-year-old woman with an omental dermoid cyst of 6 cm in diameter in the cul-de-sac, and the tumor was resected laparoscopically. The histopathologic diagnosis was dermoid cyst and no evidence of malignancy was noted. The patient had no right ovary and tube. These findings demonstrated possible autoamputation of an ovary with dermoid cyst.
