Abstract
Introduction: Leiomyomas are very common neoplasms of the female genital tract. Cystic change, an extreme form of hydropic degeneration is a rare clinical presentation. Case Report: We present a case of a 40 year old woman presenting with progressively increasing abdominal mass and clinical finding of anemia and complex adnexal mass. Excision of mass and histopathologic evaluation revealed complete cystic transformation of the uterine corpus following degeneration of leiomyoma. Conclusion: Degenerating uterine myomas should be included in differential diagnosis of complex adnexal masses in women of child bearing age.
