Abstract

Fibroids are a common malady in the category of benign tumours of the uterus. Symptoms range from none to menorrhagia and pelvic pain to neurological deficits1. We have here an interesting case of a young woman who presented to us with a giant fibroid of the uterus and surprisingly was asymptomatic. She was operated on and a 6 kg tumour was removed. She did well post operatively. JMS 2013; 16(2):95-96
