Giant Cysts of Ovary, A Benign Neoplastic Disease Mimicking Ascites

Cystic abdominal tumors are extremely common and now a day they are diagnosed more frequently due to availability of better imaging modalities. Presentations of huge cysts have become rare as most of them are diagnosed and treated early. Still we get reports of patients with huge benign abdominal cysts and many of them are serous cyst adenoma of ovary. Sometimes, it becomes very difficult to identify the source of these cysts and misdiagnosed as mesenteric cyst. Absolute diagnosis is only possible at laparotomy. We present two cases of giant ovarian cysts mimicking ascites.
