Abstract

Bartholin’s gland cysts are one of the common vulval masses in females of reproductive. They are usually small in size and asymptomatic but sometimes might become large or get infected leading to an abscess. Marsupilzation of the Bartholin’s gland is generally indicated when there is a large abscess that makes surgical excision of the gland difficuilt. This is a case report of a lady who presented at a clinic with a large Bartholin’s cyst abscess which was successfully treated by marsupilization.
