A Rare Case of a Left Ovarian Remnant Syndrome Associated with a Symptomatic Right Ovarian Cyst

Abstract

Ovarian Remnant Syndrome (ORS) results from the presence of residual ovarian tissue after an ovariectomy. We report the case of a 39-year-old woman with a past history of total abdominal hysterectomy and left salpingooophorectomy who presented with pelvic pain and was diagnosed as having ORS. She was successfully operated by laparoscopy with the surgical gesture being the removal of the cyst and the surrounding ovarian tissue with the postoperative course being uneventful.
