A previously healthy, 21-yearold woman presented to the hospital with a severe abdominal pain and an abdominal mass, approximately 10cm in size, raising a strong suspicion of a malignant tumor in the upper abdomen. She had history of abdominal cesarean. The patient elected to undergo exploratory surgery
