A 38-year-old woman is home recovering after surgeons in Connecticut removed a 132-pound ovarian cyst that was sitting on her digestive tract. The patient, who was not named, is expected to make a full recovery and has since returned to a healthy weight, Fox 61 reported. “I might expect to see a 25-pound ovarian tumor, but a 132-pound tumor is very rare,” Dr. Vaagn Andikyan, of Danbury Hospital, told the news outlet. According to Medicine Plus, patients may require surgery if the cyst is causing pain, is a patient is past menopause, or if it does not go away. “I wanted to help her, and I knew that we could at Danbury Hospital,” Andikyan said.
