Rare giant ovarian thecoma presented as atypical/incomplete Meigs' syndrome: A case image report

Year: 2024

Type: article

Study design: Case Report

Abstract: We present a 39-centimeter thecoma with ascites and elevated Ca-125 values which is compatible with an atypical/incomplete Meigs' syndrome. Giant ovarian masses with elevated Ca-125 values and ascites are an alarming combination, although Gynecologists should be aware that there are also benign entities that mimic advanced stage ovarian cancer.
