Abstract
A 23-yr-old splenectomized female developed an isolated ovarian abscess, a very rare complication, following a normal delivery. Apart from the palpated ‘cyst’, findings on pelvic examination were unremarkable, as is often the case with ovarian abscess. The patient recovered after conservative ‘cystectomy’. We suggest that the asplenic state plays a role in the development of this very rare complication.
