INTRODUCTION: A primary fibroid (leiomyoma) arising from both ovaries is rare and can be difficult to diagnose as a result of the low incidence and its indistinctive presentation. A literature review on the diagnostic and therapeutic approach of this rare benign tumour is presented. We describe a case of bilateral primary ovarian fibroid with an unusual presentation to illustrate our recommendations for treatment.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 37-year-old woman was admitted with symptoms of acute severe abdominal pain. She had a history of faint abdominal discomfort. Due to the acute deterioration of the abdominal pain a diagnostic laparoscopy was performed. A tumour arising from both ovaries was seen and a biopsy was taken in order to decide on further therapy. Histology showed a fibroid for which excision by a second laparoscopic intervention was planned. Due to excessive adhesions conversion to laparotomy was necessary.
CONCLUSION: We recommend that in the case of an abnormal adnexal mass, particularly in women who want to preserve their fertility, frozen section histology be performed laparoscopically. A frozen section diagnostic procedure, instead of a regular biopsy, seems to be a useful tool during an elective diagnostic laparoscopic procedure in order to prevent potential morbidity as a result of possible future laparoscopy or even laparotomy. Previous laparoscopic procedures can cause massive adhesions that could impede a subsequent laparoscopic approach.
