Özet
Cystic and solid tumors of the ovary are rare during the newborn period and infancy. We present the case of a term female infant born to a mother of 28 years of age and found to have a cystic abdominal mass through prenatal sonographic evaluation in the third trimester. The complex cyst was also demonstrated by postnatal abdominal ultrasonography. Laparotomy revealed a large cystic mass with a torsed right ovary. Pathologic examination of cyst revealed hemorrhagic necrosis with ovarian torsion.
