Abstract

We report the case of bilateral giant Bartholin gland cysts in a 34 year old woman who presented with a 6 year history of painless swelling in the vulval region. MRI revealed well-defined homogeneously T1 and T2 hyperintense cystic lesions located in the posterolateral inferior third of the vagina, in the region of the labia majora bilaterally. Diagnosis was confirmed on histopathological examination following excision of the cysts. Bartholin gland cysts are the most common cysts in the paravulvar region however giant cysts are a rare entity.
