Ovarian mucinous cystadenoma causing acute urinary retention
AbstractAcute urinary retention rarely occurs in women, and is only infrequently caused by a pelvic mass. We describe a case of acute urinary retention caused by a large ovarian mucinous cystadenoma. Point of care ultrasound characterized and localized the lesion, while computerized tomography demonstrated the anatomic distortions resulting in urinary retention. The patient's symptoms resolved immediately following a laparoscopic right salpingo‐oophorectomy with complete tumor removal.
