Left Dermoid Ovarian Cyst in a Woman with Term Pregnancy on the Bi-Scar Uterus

Abstract

Ovarian dermoidal cysts are benign lesions arising from germ cells. If they are large, they can pose a problem of differential diagnosis with the hydatid cyst. Transformation to a malignancy is possible. Complications are numerous, going as far as peritonitis or even fistulization in a hollow organ. We present a case of dermoid cyst of the ovary in a 33-year-old parturient with twice scarred uterus who was treated surgically and whose postoperative evolution was good.
