Abstract
Our reported case was a 45 old postmenopausal female presented with marked abdominal distension and discomfort since 6 months with dribbling of urine with history of injury to bladder during lower segment ceaserean section. The data were collected by history-taking, clinical examination, laboratory investigations, transabdominal ultrasonographic examination, and by histo-pathological study of the excised surgical specimen. On abdominal examination, a huge ill-defined pelvi-abdominal mass was noticed, extended up to xiphisternum. Pelvic examination revealed normal sized non-pregnant firm uterus and fullness in the cul-de-sac and both adnexae and dribbling of urine. Transabdominal ultrasonography verified a massive multi-loculated cyst without solid components or surface papillary projections, extended up to the subhepatic area, with minimal free intraperitoneal fluid. Staging laparotomy proceed abdominal panhysterectomy with vesico vaginal fistula repair was done. Intraoperatively left ovary was replaced by a large cystic mass (45 × 25 × 30 cm) weighing 15 kg greyish white in colour freely mobile filled with turbid fluid. vesico vaginal fistula opening seen at end of cervix and vagina.
