Abstract
- A bartholin gland cysts and abscesses are common problems in women of reproductive age. Although the cysts are usually asymptomatic, they may become enlarged or infected and cause significant pain. Bartholin gland abscesses usually develop over two to four days and can become larger than 8 cm by literature but huge bartholin abscess is very rare. A number of vulvar and vaginal lesions can mimic bartholin gland cysts or abscesses and should be included in the differential diagnosis. So we report a case of hemorrhagic huge bartholin abscess with a brief review of the literatures.
