Abstract
Massive ovarian edema is characterized by enlargement of ovaries with edema fluid. The patients are young (age below 21), with abdominal pain. This uncommon entity usually leads to over-treatment in children and adolescents. A frozen operative section is essential. A case of massive ovarian edema in a 16-year-old female that urgently necessitated an operative intervention is described
