After local examination, USG and CT scan reports, provisional diagnosis was made as ovarian Cystadenoma and decided to do exploratory laparotomy. During intra-operative procedure large cyst was noted arising from left ovary with multiple cysts filled with clear fluid in one section. The cyst of 3.7 kg was excised by laparotomy.
