Physical examination revealed a non-tender intra-abdominal mass extending from epigastrium to the pelvis with a smooth surface (Figure 1). Laparotomy revealed a large cystic mass (Figure 1) 20cm in widest dimension arising from the base of the mesentery of the terminal ileum and attached to the right adnexa. The mass was dissected and resected en-bloc (Figure 1) with the right adnexa for histological examination.
