Navigating a Rare Presentation: Case Report of a Large Gartner’s Duct Cyst

View through CrossRef
Background: Mullerian ducts form the female genital tract and wolffian ducts form the male genital tract. In females, sometimes the wolffian duct persists and form the Gartner duct and its total or partial occlusion results in the formation of Gartner’s cyst. It is typically small and asymptomatic and occurs along the antero-lateral wall of vagina. Methods and Results: We report a case of 40-year-old woman who presented with a big mass coming out per vaginum. After examination, she was provisionally diagnosed as Gartner duct cyst, excision was done and confirmed as a case of Gartner’s duct cyst on histopathological examination. Conclusion: A good clinical examination along with radiological investigations aids in making a timely diagnosis and surgical management.
