ABSTRACT
Dermoid cysts of the ovary are the most common ovarian masses in children. Due to slow growth rates, a large ovarian dermoid cyst with torsion is rare in neonates. We are reporting a case of giant dermoid cyst of right ovary undergoing torsion in a neonate. The case was successfully managed by surgical exploration and right oophorectomy alongwith the dermoid cyst.
Keywords: Dermoid cyst, Large ovarian mass, Torsion, Mature cystic teratoma.
