Abstract

Lymphatic filariasis is an important tropic disease associated with significant morbidity. The patients in endemic areas mostly experience problems related to lymphatic obstruction. Physicians practicing in non- endemic areas rarely consider filariasis, especially if it is an uncommon presentation. We present a young woman who posed a significant problem in the diagnosis of ovarian filariasis.
