Abstract:
A 41-year-old patient with enormous tumour in the abdomen, which by its form, size, and position corresponded to a large ovarian tumour, suddenly developed the picture of acute abdomen. Emergency laparotomy revealed a ganglioneurinoma of the right suprarenal gland, 13 X 18 X 20 cm in size, weighing 5.5 kg. The tumour was removed in toto. The postoperative course was normal. So was the finding of the follow-up examination after six months.
