FATWOs are most frequently found in the broad ligament, but these can also appear in the mesosalpinx, Fallopian tube, ovary, paravaginal region or peritoneum. We present a case of a 68-year-old female with a history of painless abdominal distension and frequent urination, with palpable big abdominal mass. Initial diagnosis was made using ultrasound and computed tomography scan that showed 22 \u00d7 21-cm tumor with solid and cystic components. Blood test showed elevated serum levels of CA 125, HE4 and Roma index. Intraoperatively, a large abdominopelvic encapsulated mass, fixated to surrounding tissue, was found. Our patient underwent hysterectomy 12\u00a0years ago. Total tumor resection, including bilateral adnexectomy, was performed. At 6 months of following, there was no evidence of disease. Here, we report extremely rare abdominal tumors and one of the biggest FATWOs reported so far.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjac243","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,10]],"date-time":"2022-05-10T03:28:43Z","timestamp":1652153323000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Rare giant female adnexal tumor of probable Wolffian origin: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2022","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0877-9835","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sanela","family":"Brzika","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery , General Hospital, Sarajevo 71 000 , Bosnia and Herzegovina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ismar","family":"Ra\u0161i\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery , General Hospital, Sarajevo 71 000 , Bosnia and Herzegovina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Admir","family":"Bekte\u0161evi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery , General Hospital, Sarajevo 71 000 , Bosnia and Herzegovina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ali","family":"Gavrankapetanovi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery , General Hospital, Sarajevo 71 000 , Bosnia and Herzegovina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nedim","family":"Hasi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery , General Hospital, Sarajevo 71 000 , Bosnia and Herzegovina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Salko","family":"Pa\u0161ovi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery , General Hospital, Sarajevo 71 000 , Bosnia and Herzegovina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022053120561507000_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"671","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0142(197303)31:3<671::AID-CNCR2820310328>3.0.CO;2-K","article-title":"Female adnexal tumor of probable Wolffian origin.
