During laparotomy for a huge parovarian cyst, unusually large bilateral lobulated ovarian cysts were noted. And lobulated ovary is one of the rarest gynecologic abnormalities. Although obesity and hirsutism were absent and the results of the endocrine test were within normal range, polycystic ovarian disease was highly suspected due to the pathologic findings and elevated LH/FSH ratio.
