This case was an asymptomatic abdominal cyst detected 3.5cm diameter in 38 gestation week fetus on antenatal ultrasonography. She was delivered by vaginal birth at 40th week. Postnatal USG revealed a cystic mass measuring 4x2,5 cm in the right pelvis containing an intracystic hypoechoic lesion with round calcification of the cyst wall. MRI image showed 4x5 cm diameter a hyperintense area, indicating hemorrhagic content. Autoamputated right ovarian cyst was found and removed from the abdomen. The cyst was surgically removed to confirm the diagnosis and treatment. In this article it was presented with diagnosis of necrosis due to auto-amputation in fetal ovarian cyst and it was surgically treated in neonatal period. © 2012 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
