Abstract:
Fibroids, also known as uterine leiomyomas, are the most common solid benign lesions of the uterus. Fibroids are responsive to hormones and are stimulated by estrogens and commonly grow during pregnancy and involute as menopause progresses. The treatment is mostly conservative. When symptomatic, the treatment requires surgical intervention. We present a case of a 72-year-old post-menopausal female with a large, calcified parasitic fibroid, an extremely rare variant of uterine leiomyoma occurring outside the uterus. The number of cases reported about this pathology is minimal.
