Abstract: 

The authors report a case of giant serous cystadenoma of the right ovary in a 16-years-old girl. They recall the diagnostic procedure by indicating that there is no specific symptomatology. Some signs are nevertheless frequently found and are related to the increase in the volume of the mass. But, a careful physical examination of the abdomen associated with transabdominal ultrasound makes it possible to make the diagnosis. The benign or malignant nature must be confirmed by biopsy. The treatment of choice is surgical and must take into account the age and desire for maternity of the patient.
