“…The main imaging modality for evaluating ovarian and adnexal masses is ultrasonography (US), which allows accurate identification in approximately 90% of cases. It has the advantage of being available, inexpensive, easy to perform (especially when in the hands of an experienced operator), and has no ionizing radiation ( 12 ).…”

Giant ovarian cyst itself is defined as a cyst >10 cm in diameter from radiological- examination or the size of the cyst exceeds the umbilicus. Extra-large benign and malignant cysts of the ovary are uncommon and involve diagnostic and management challenges. We present the case of a 20-year-old nulliparous woman who was referred to our center with complaints of abdominal pain and heavy breathing. She benefited from a salphingo-oophorectomy laparotomy procedure. Benign and malignant gynecologic and non-gynecologic etiologies are included in the differential diagnosis of an abdominal mass. Because of the infrequent occurrence or absence of distinctive clinical presentation of the giant ovarian cyst, accurate preoperative diagnosis is challenging.

“…Endometriomas arise from the ectopic growth of endometrial tissue, with the ovary being a frequent site. These cysts are colloquially referred to as "chocolate cysts" due to their contents of dark, thick, gelatinous aged blood products [11]. A comprehensive histopathological examination is crucial to accurately confirm the nature of ovarian cysts.…”

Ovarian cysts, which are sacs filled with fluid located in the ovaries, represent the primary reason for enlarged ovaries, impacting approximately 20% of women who experience a pelvic mass at least once during their lifetime. The present work was carried out to focus on the frequency, gross appearance and histopathological features of each type of ovarian cysts in Derna-City East of Libya. This work included 54 cases of ovarian cysts, out of 338 samples submitted to Noor-AL-Huda Medical Center Pathology Laboratory in Derna City –East of Libya during the period between January 2022 and April 2023, samples were formalin fixed, processed, then H &E sections were obtained for histologic diagnosis and subtyping. The age of patients ranges from 5 – 68 years, the predominant age group was 30– 39 years, 26 (48.14%) were on the right side, 23(42.59%) were on the left side, 5(9.25%) were bilateral. The commonest presenting symptoms were both incidental in 21(38.8%) and pain in 18(33.33%); the cyst mainly obtained from Cystectomy operation 39 (72.22%). Gross appearance of each type was studied. Out of the included 54 ovarian cysts 29 (53.70%) were non –neoplastic and25 (46.29%) were neoplastic. Follicle cysts represented (37.93%) of the non-neoplastic lesions, while serous cyst adenoma represented (40%) of the neoplastic lesions. We concluded that non-neoplastic cysts are the most common types of ovarian cysts. Among non-neoplastic ovarian cysts, the functional cysts including follicular and corpus luteal cysts were the most common, while serous cysts and teratomas are the common neoplastic cysts. Most ovarian cysts are found on the right side. Histopathological examination is essential for accurate diagnosis and proper management of ovarian cysts.
