Abstract
Fibrothecomas are uncommon tumors of gonadal stromal cell origin accounting for 3–4% of all ovarian
tumors and in 90% of the cases are unilateral. We are reporting a case of fibrothecoma in a 55 year of female presenting
with complaint of abdominal distention & huge pelvic mass since long duration, which must be differentiated from
massive edema of the ovary and sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary. USG and CT findings show multilobulated
ovarian mass.Omental biopsy and ascitic fluid was negative for malignant cells. Microscopically, the ovarian mass was
composed of a cellular and hyalininzed hypocellular area. Histopathological diagnosis was given as Luteinizing
fibrothecoma.
