“…Massive ovarian edema is a rare, benign, non-neoplastic solid tumor-like gross enlargement of one or both ovaries due accumulation of edema fluid within the stroma.

[1][2][3] To the best our knowledge, less than 200 cases are reported in the literature. 3 Venous and lymphatic drainage are compromised due to incomplete and intermittent ovarian torsion which can leads to the enlargement of the ovary which can present as a solid, adnexal mass without ischemic necrosis.…”

Massive ovarian edema is a rare, non-neoplastic solid tumor-like lesion. It results from compromised venous and lymphatic drainage due to partial or intermittent torsion of ovarian pedicle. Pain, distension or abdominal mass, menstrual irregularities, infertility and hormone-related symptoms can be the clinical presentation. We report a case of massive ovarian edema in a 28-year-old female who presented with acute pain abdomen. She was diagnosed clinico-radiologically with solid ovarian tumor and massive ovarian edema on histology. Massive ovarian edema should be suspected in female of reproductive age group presenting with abdominal pain, solid enlargement of ovary on radiology and normal serum tumor markers.
