Massive ovarian edema / Elias E. Pantangco [and two others]

Contributor(s): Subject(s): Abstract: A rare case of massive ovarian edema in a young Filipina, clinically suspected to be a neoplasm, is presented. Microscopic examination showed diffuse interstitial edema with foci of luteinized stromal cells. Since the patient is young, conservative management with sparing of reproductive capacity is advocated, although this is not what happened in this case because of lack of awareness of this condition.
