Giant ovarian cysts are rare and are almost no longer reported in medical literature. Except where good diagnostic imaging procedure is performed, they could be mistaken for massive abdominal ascites. Here we report 2 cases which were diagnosed at a medical missions facility during a free medical outreach program in March 2017. The patients presented with gross abdominal distention. Ultrasound scan revealed cystic ovarian tumors in both cases with no suspicious finding for malignancy. Salpingo-ophorectomies were carried out at laparatomies through midline incision extending from below the epigastric to just above the suprapubic. Patients were treated with postoperative antibiotics and analgesics and discharged home after 7 days on admission. They were followed up for 2 years and both recovered well without recurrence. Cystectomy without pre-operative drainage remains the modality of treatment in our environment.
