Giant uterine fibroma is a benign condition of very low incidence. Surgical intervention represented a challenge for the medical team because of its size and variations in the distribution of intra-abdominal organs caused by their tremendous growth.Case report: a 49-year-old patient, having a gynecological ultrasound performed at 39 years old was diagnosed with uterine fibroma, but she decided not to follow the surgical procedure for fear of surgery, she finally managed the fears and was operated on June11, 2015 at Heroes de Baire General Teaching Hospital in Nueva Gerona, Isla de la Juventud. Total abdominal hysterectomy with double adnexectomy was performed. The histopathological study reported giant subserous-leiomyoma, weighing 6.0 kg. During the immediate intraoperative and postoperative procedures no accidents or complications were detected. Late postoperative evolution in primary health care remained satisfactory. The peculiarities of this case motivated its report.
