AB  - Teratoma is most frequent in ovary and rare to be found in other sites. We present our
experienced case of dermoid cyst located at Douglas pouch. A 50-year-old woman with
gravida 2 para 2 was preoperatively diagnosed as left ovarian cyst (dermoid cyst) and
planned surgical resection. Laparoscopic surgery revealed existence of enlarged cyst at
Douglas pouch. Bilateral normal ovary was visually confirmed. We performed bilateral
salpingo-oophorectomy and cyst resection at the Douglas pouch. Pathological finding
revealed dermoid cyst was originated from ovary. To find out the findings to indicate the
etiology during operation is quite important and further reports are warranted to share such
kind of rare cases.
