Popis: Mature cystic teratoma is a benign ovarian tumor that usually presents in reproductive-age females. This tumor usually presents with pain abdomen, bloating, and a lump. Hereby, we describe a case of an ovarian dermoid presented with features of intestinal obstruction secondary to ileo-dermoid fistula formation. A 55-year-old postmenopausal female presented with lower abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and the feeling of a lump in the abdomen. On evaluation and imaging, it was diagnosed as a large ovarian dermoid (with malignant transformation) with multiple fistulous communications with ileal loops. The patient was managed by laparotomy, total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, bowel resection, and anastomosis. The patient was discharged in good condition. The rupture of malignant ovarian dermoid followed by enterodermoid fistula formation and intestinal obstruction is rare. Complete cytoreduction and bowel repair should be considered for optimal results.
