Abstract
Fibrothecomas are uncommon tumors of gonadal stromal cell origin accounting for 3–4% of all ovarian tumors and in 90% of the cases are unilateral. We are reporting a case of fibrothecoma in a 55 year of female presenting with complaint of abdominal distention & huge pelvic mass since long duration, which must be differentiated from massive edema of the ovary and sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary. USG and CT findings show multilobulated ovarian mass.Omental biopsy and ascitic fluid was negative for malignant cells. Microscopically, the ovarian mass was composed of a cellular and hyalininzed hypocellular area. Histopathological diagnosis was given as Luteinizing fibrothecoma.
