Case Report: Ovarian fibroma: typical presentation with Meigs's Syndrome.
Аннотация
Meigs's syndrome is characterized by a triad of ovarian fibroma, ascites, and pleural effusion which can be managed surgically. Pleural effusion and ascites are usually transudative. Ovarian fibroma is an uncommon tumor. We herein report a case of Meigs's syndrome in a 61-year-old woman who presented with complaints of abdominal pain for two-three months along with decreased appetite and constipation. On examination, there was decreased air entry in the right side of the chest, generalized abdominal distention, and a firm irregular mass was felt which was mobile and extending from upper border of symphysis pubis to just above the umbilicus on abdominal palpation. Chest X ray showed right sided pleural effusion, ultrasonogram (USG) abdominal and pelvis showed gross ascites, and a very large complex right ovarian cyst was confirmed by computed tomography (CT) scan. She underwent staging laparotomy with total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and omental resection for biopsy. Biopsy showed right ovarian fibroma.
