ABSTRACT

Women's ovarian tumors are a prevalent type of neoplasm. The most prevalent kind is mature cystic teratoma, which has an 8–15 % bilateral frequency. However, only a few cases of bilateral and multiple sclerosis have been described. A 42-year-old female patient with stomach pain for one day arrived with an unusual case of bilateral multiple dermoid cysts. Her medical history had been relatively normal. The patient had clots passing in the menses. Multiple bilateral ovarian cystic tumors were discovered on ultrasonography. Laparotomy was performed on the patient. The lumps were removed while the remaining ovarian tissue was preserved. In histology, the myometrium is unremarkable. In histology, a cervix segment revealed chronic cervicitis with a Nabothian Cyst. A section of the right ovary revealed characteristics that pointed to a benign cystic teratoma of the right ovary (Dermoid cyst). Histopathology of the left fallopian tube revealed endometriosis. Histopathology confirmed multiple mature cystic teratomas with no signs of malignant cells.
