Abstract
Introduction
Fibroids are the commonest uterine tumors. Subserous fibroids arise from serosal layer and may present as adnexal masses. Large fibroids may undergo secondary changes and the most common secondary changes are degeneration (hyaline-60%, myxoid, cystic-4%, sarcomatous-<5% and red degeneration), infection, hemorrhage, and necrosis. Here we are reporting a very rare case of a large fibroid with hyaline and myxoid degeneration.
