ABSTRACT

The broad ligament is the most common extra uterine site for leiomyoma[3], but with a low incidence rate.[4] We present the observation of a patient consulting for abdominal pain, abdominal distension and signs of urinary and digestive compression. Abdominal examination revealed a firm abdominopelvic mass reaching the umbilicus. Radiological examinations were in favor of a uterine fibroid, a uterine sarcoma or an ovarian tumor. Intraoperative inspection found a 30 cm mass of the left broad ligament adherent to the left adnexa. A subtotal hysterectomy with left adnexectomy was performed.
