Abstract

Fibroid uterus is the most common benign tumor of uterus. Extrauterine fibroids are rare and most common extra uterine fibroid is broad ligament fibroid. Broad ligament fibroids are difficult to diagnose and treat. Most often misdiagnosed as ovarian malignancy. In our case ovarian fibroma was suspected and ultrasound pelvis,CT and MRI reports suggestive of ovarian fibroma. Intraoperative findings suggestive of Broad ligament fibroid, fibroid excision was done along with abdominal total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingoo oophorectomy. Diagnosis was confirmed by intraoperative findings and histopathological report. Conclusion: broad ligament fibroid should kept as important differential diagnosis for solid adnexal or ovarian mass.
