Abstract
Ovarian tumors in children and adolescents are rare. We present a case of a 15-year-old girl with mucinous cystadenoma (MCA) which was diagnosed incidentally when evaluating for anemia and reduced appetite. The scan reports suggested a large ovarian cyst with a few thick enhancing septa. Serological markers were within normal limits. She underwent a cystectomy with salpingo-oophorectomy. The cyst was reported as MCA on histopathology. The child is on regular follow-up for 6 months with no adverse events.
