Abstract

A 2810 G female term neonate, born to a 23-year-old, gravida 1 para 1 mother, was found to have a large abdominal cyst in the right side of her abdomen by routine prenatal ultrasonography at the gestational age of 28 weeks. Plain abdomen showed a large mass shadow in the upper right and lower portions of her abdomen. Ultrasonography of the abdomen revealed a 8.3 cm x 3.5 cm cyst of unknown origin in the right abdomen. Abdominal CT scan showed a large well-defined cyst with septum formation in the right pelvis. Which extended up to the inferior border of the liver. On the 5th day after birth, an exploratory laporatomy was performed because the neonate had poor appetite and poor activity, and the abdominal film revealed an ileus pattern. Surgical intervention disclosed a 8 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm cyst in her right ovary. Hence, a right oophorectomy was done, and follicular cyst was reported by pathological examination.
