Ovarian Cyst

On table photographs from one of the surgeries I assisted during my internship at CG Hospital Davangere. This 45 years old female presented with C/O mass per abdomen for 1 year with associated h/o dysmenorrhea and menstrual irregularities. There was no h/o fever, bowel disturbances, loss of weight or appetite. USG examination showed a large anechoic cyst in peritoneal cavity. Based on USG and clinical findings diagnoses of  mesentric cyst, pancreatic pseudocyst and ovarian cyst were considered but on lapratomy it was found to be an ovarian cyst of 12*15 cm size. Subsequently right sided salpingoophorectomy was performed.
