Case Report: Here, we report the case of a 62-year-old woman with gossypiboma. She underwent surgery due to an abdominal mass that was preoperatively considered a tumor. Intra-postoperatively, it was diagnosed as gossypiboma. Conclusions: For the prevention of gossypiboma during the pre-operative and post-operative periods, counting sponges and surgical equipment must be done very carefully. If there is any doubt postoperatively, direct abdominal imaging may be helpful. © Am J Case Rep 2016.Medical Science International2016Articlehttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/ebyu/15115https://doi.org/10.12659/ajcr.8967171941-5923enAmerican Journal of Case Reportsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://ebyu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/ebyu/15115
