Case presentation:A 35-years-old female was diagnosed with the pedunculated 20 cm sub serous fibroid uterus. The pedicle was approximately 2 cm in length, arising from the fundus of the uterus. A feeding vessel from the omentum was identified, which was providing blood supply to the myoma. She underwent myomectomy after the resection of pedicle and ligation of omental vessels. Post-operative period was uneventful and she had good recovery. Conclusions:This case report of Parasitic fibroid is a type of subserous fibroid. Generally surgical management is required for the relief of symptoms and to avoid encroachment of nearby abdominal or pelvic structures which in turn leads to further complications.
