Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Nabothian cysts are common cervical findings, typically benign and asymptomatic.
  • They result from obstruction of cervical gland ducts, leading to mucus retention.

Observation:

  • This case report focuses on a patient presenting with an adnexal mass.
  • Imaging revealed large and numerous Nabothian cysts within the cervix.

Findings:

  • The extensive Nabothian cysts simulated a significant adnexal mass on clinical and imaging evaluation.
  • This presentation is unusual given the typically small size and limited clinical impact of Nabothian cysts.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of considering benign gynecologic conditions in the differential diagnosis of adnexal masses.
  • Emphasizes that even common findings like Nabothian cysts can present atypically, requiring careful evaluation.
